one for the money






 One For The Money (Stephanie Plum, #1)




***** a 5 star read
ok this is another series that i wanted to read that i have started and will probably take me forever to finish because sometimes i forget what i have read and what i need to read!

well, this book was a fast pace read, and i am glad that i am finally taking the plunge to read it! i love mystery's especially ones that are funny with it. i couldn't stop laughing, because i am a criminal justice major, and working with felons is part of the rush that i love so with that said i love love love this book!

Stephanie Plum was laid off from her job as a lingerie buyer for a local (Trenton, NJ) department store. Needing money quickly she turned to family and out of the goodness of his heart (not) her cousin Vinnie hired her to be a “skip tracer” in his bail bonds company.

As luck may have it, one of Vinnie’s best bounty hunters, was in the hospital, so Stephanie picked up his case load.

Her “luck” continued when she found out that the most money could be made by bringing an old neighbor (with whom she has had sex with) to justice.

Among a host of problems for Stephanie: She has zero experience with guns or apprehending people. The skip, Joe Morelli, is a cop on the run with skills that Stephanie cannot match and she still has the hots for him. To top it all off…..world champion boxer (Benito Ramirez) with a sadistic streak….. is after her.

Murders start piling up and a sinister drug ring is uncovered. LOTS of action.
