The Plum books are my choice for some light hearted, escapist reading, that doesn't take itself too seriously. Familiarity is another draw for me - I know who, and what I'm going to find in the recurring characters. But there are surprises found in the visiting players in each story. You see, our lead character Stephanie works as a bounty hunter for her cousin Vinny in Trenton, New Jersey. This time around, Stephanie is tracking down three separate bail jumpers. I'll let you discover who and why.
Stephanie is easy to like, with a good sense of humor. The supporting cast includes sidekick Lula, a big hearted former hooker. The banter between Stephanie and Lula is always fun. Stephanie's Grandma Mazur (my fave) is often involved in whatever is going on.
The real question though, is who Stephanie will settle down with! For thirty books she has vacillated between Trenton police detective Morelli or private security firm owner Ranger. Is there an answer to be found in Now or Never?
Hear for yourself - listen to an audio excerpt of Now or Never.

I laughed at the last sentence here, Luanne. Will she decide? I read the first few of these books and enjoyed them, but then I went on to other things. Glad this is a series that has worked well for you. We all have our favorites, right? Hope you have a good weekend!
Hey Kay - good for listening to when you want something that's silly
You're right Mystica - and we should not apologize for what we read.
