Week 51 Review: To the Nines

From Goodreads:
Stephanie Plum's got rent to pay, people shooting at her, and psychos wanting her dead every day of the week (much to the dismay of her mother, her family, the men in her life, the guy who slices meat at the deli...oh, the list goes on). An ordinary person would cave under the pressure.

But hey, she's from Jersey.

Stephanie Plum may not be the best bounty hunter in beautiful downtown Trenton, but she's pretty darn good at turning bad situations her way...and she always gets her man. In
To The Nines, her cousin Vinnie (who's also her boss) has posted bail on Samuel Singh, an immigrant who becomes an illegal alien by violating his Visa and extending his stay in the United States. When the elusive Mr. Singh goes missing, Stephanie is on the case. But what she uncovers is far more sinister than anyone imagines and leads to a group of killers who give new meaning to the word "hunter..."

In a race against time that takes her from the Jersey Turnpike to the Vegas strip, Stephanie Plum is on the chase of her life. 

My Review:
Things just never are easy for Stephanie, are they? So Vinnie has started doing bonds of another sort-visa bonds, and yeah, when their first client through that, disappears, well, it's Stephanie-and Ranger-who have to find him. And it is not looking well for Stephanie or Samuel!

As always, this book cracks me up! I was looking at the Goodreads page before I read it, and yeah, in the quotes, there was one, about her phone messages, and yeah, here it is, so you can laugh, too! "I checked my phone messages. Three in all. The first was from Joe. 'Hey, Cupcake.' That was it. That was the whole message. The second was from Ranger. 'Yo.' Ranger made Joe look like a chatterbox." Yeah, it was just a barrel of laughs!

And her love life. Oh, it's a bit of a torture, to have to watch her pick between Joe and Ranger. They're both pretty amazing guys, each with a set of qualities that would make them a good partner, and both have flaws. So choosing between them, would really kinda suck!

The mystery was awesome, all the little clues that led up the big thing, and how the twist happened, and how Stephanie thought it was one thing, when it turned out it was another, and add in all the events that went on, from her waking up with a chunk of her hair missing, to some other creepy things, yeah, the villain in this book was a bit more serious then previous ones!

Yeah, really enjoyed this book, and I can't wait to read more of this series!
