Mooner, Ranger, homicidal maniacs, a Rollswagon, dog poo, a dead guy in a lawn chair, the nemesis from hell, a Star Trek party and eccentric Grandma Mazur all make up my favorite Stephanie Plum novel so far! Lots of laugh-out-loud moments and great secondary characters.

Stephanie Plum is back in Hot Six with all of the humor and bad luck her readers have come to expect. This book is action-packed and filled with eccentric characters, some returning and some new to the series. I thoroughly enjoyed the previous five books in this series, but this one may be my favorite so far.

Mystery. Stephanie Plum! Being tailed. Again! Car on fire. Again! Has an unwelcome houseguest. Again! I was warned these books get predictable, but I...didn't think it'd be this bad? Okay, okay, I'm shaking it off.
This here's the book where Ranger's wanted for questioning in connection to a fire and also a murder and has Stephanie doing stakeouts for him. During the course of the investigation, she picks up a dog and a roommate, and then a couple more roommates. Ranger's pretty fris More...

Stephanie Plum has grown up with half the cops and crooks in Trenton, which compensates for her poor aim with a gun, bad luck with cars and soft-hearted approach to her job (one bail jumper evades her four times). The police are after her mentor, the mysterious Ranger, wanted for killing drug and gun dealer Homer Ramos. Claiming he's innocent, Ranger persuades Steph to help him keep an eye on the Ramos clan. Steph teams up with her lover, vice cop Joe Morelli, then strikes out on her own when sh

My Review: Hot Six is another great audiobook by Janet Evanovich. Stephanie Plum is one hell of a bounty hunter… well, sometimes. She’s hilarious and constantly surrounded by drama. This time it’s different though, she’s expected to bring in her friend and fellow bounty hunter, Ranger. Yup, same Ranger that has given her hot flashes in the past.

After reading the paperbacks in order, I've recently begun reading these books in their unabridged audiobook form in reverse order. I started with #8 (Hard Eight), recently finished up #7 (Seven Up) and the latest listen has been Hot Six. Reading these backwards has been an eye-opening experience and I'm now able to pinpoint exactly where things began to become repetitive for me as a reader (the very beginning of book #7, for those interested).

This was the first Stephanie Plum novel I read. You can start in the middle of the series, but it's so much more fun beginning with #1.
Stephanie Plum is perhaps the most inept bounty hunter ever, but she manages to capture most of the FTA's assigned to her. Probably because she's got the help of Ranger, the sexiest, most successful bounty hunter ever. When things go wrong, and they always do, she can count on her sometimes boyfriend, Joe Morelli, to keep her out of jail.

When Stephanie's friend and mentor, Ranger, ends up on their office's "failure to appear" list, the police and bounty hunters aren't the only ones looking for him. He's the last person known to have spoken with a murdered member of an infamous crime family, and a lot of the people with an interest in the case think Stephanie can lead them to their man. She tries to help Ranger clear his name while her apartment becomes a temporary refuge for a pair of stoners, her grandmother, and a do

I went off Janet Evanovich and her sassy bounty-hunter heroine Stephanie Plum for a while, because I thought I detected the emergence of the dreaded LOVE TRIANGLE erupting between Stephanie and the two eligible bachelors around town, Joe Morelli (cop) and Ranger (fellow bounty hunter and general entrepreneur), at the end of “High Five”. And I really hate love triangles, I mean I REALLY hate them. They go on forever, they can’t possible have a happy ending, there’s way too much useless inner turm

This is the sixth book in the Stephanie Plum series, New Jersey's hysterical bounty hunter. In this book, Stephanie is asked to pick up Ranger who missed his court date! Not only is Ranger her friend and fellow bounty hunter, but he is her mentor. Ranger is also wanted by the police for questioning in the murder of an organized crime figure. Can she do this and go after her friend? Stephanie of course believes Ranger is innocent and if anything, only kills bad guys but this is still a test of

So Ranger really starts to turn up the heat on Stephanie and his feelings (lust or more substantive) as she helps him prove his innocence in a murder investigation. I like the introduction of Bob the dog . . . another wacky character. Joyce continues to instill frustration and rage within me--can't someone put a hit on her (not that I condone violence). There is a proposal at the end of the book that seems drivin by sex deprivation (Joe's beeper and Grandma Moser's new roommate status for Step

I think I'm going to give up on the series after reading the first 6 books. I like the fast paced story line and I understand it's not the type of book to have much character development, and I really don't mind that but what I mostly can't stand are love triangles that do not get resolved within a book or so, and I am afraid this series looks like it's going to be one loooooong lasting love triangle (judging by the summary of book 18 that just came out). Another thing I can't stand is that Step

In Hot Six, Stephanie’s bounty hunting mentor, Ranger, has been seen on camera walking out of a meeting with Homer Ramos, who is found minutes later with a bullet in his head and his body burnt to a crisp. Although the blurb makes it sound like it’s up to Stephanie to find him, she refuses to look because she knows he’s much better than she is at the bounty hunter business.

I'm working my way through the series, finished this one last Friday and I'm already half way through the next one, Seven Up. This one had me laughing so much I ended up telling my kids about 60 percent of the story because they'd hear me laugh and want to know what was so funny. So I'd have to explain the main character, a tiny bit of the back story and then what was making me giggle in the scene. Most of the time they laughed too.

A building owned by a black-market arms dealer has burned down, leaving one of the owner's sons dead inside with a bullet hole. Expert bounty hunter, Ranger, was caught on video at the scene and is the number-one suspect. Ranger was once special forces and moves in mysterious circles, "like the wind." Nobody finds Ranger unless he wants to be found. Stephanie Plum, Trenton's "bounty hunter from hell," sees Ranger as her mentor and lately a bit more than a friend. He's taught

"Hot Six" is appropriately titled because it certainly was quite possibly the hottest Stephanie Plum book yet. What makes this story so sizzling isn't the physical relationship Stephanie shares with her two leading men, but the anticipation of something physical. Evanovich has mastered the ability to turn a simple 2 minute work/information meeting into a scene where I'm running for a cold shower to calm myself down.

My ratings system is as follows. One star is GOOD. The book is entertaining, easy to read and you don't want to stop reading because something about the book is compelling you not to. Two stars is GREAT! This time the story is not only entertaining, but highly creative, unique, easy to read and hard to put down. Three stars is EXCELLENT. Here the book has all aspects of one and two stars, but now the book is thought and emotionally provoking. Four is AWESOME. This is the read that is not onl

Another Stephanie PLum book, another day. In this book we get the answer to that little cliff hanger from the last book almost immediately (thank goodness)! But I'm still feeling a little bit of the ick factor as far and Stephanie's involvement with Joe and Ranger. Although I have a preference, I could live with either. I could live with both at the same time (yum) or I could live with her seeing them both, but I can't live with her being jealous over Joe and fooling around with Ranger.

Stephanie Plum is on the hunt for a potential murder suspect. The murder victim is the son of a notorious gun runner. The suspect has been caught on video tape and it seems like the police have an open and shut case. Only Plum's newest FTA is Ranger, her mentor and potential love interest. But then what about Morelli, he seems to be heating things up with Plum and getting very protective.

Evanovich, Janet - 6th in series
Sexual temptation, homicidal maniacs, car crashes and doughnut addiction are all in a day's work for Stephanie Plum. Now there's another male in her life. He's big, he's orange, and he howls when he's left alone. But nothing could prepare her for the disaster she faces when Grandma Mazur moves in.
The series continues to be fun.

In the sixth Stephanie Plum books she has more characters introduced, more man trouble, and more car trouble. There is a lot that happens in this book with another cliffhanger at the end. Stephanie's grandma moves in and she is hilarious as her roommate. She also gets a dog which is quite funny. This one was great and now I want seven up.
