Stephanie's sister show up finally, her mother's story progresses a tiny tiny bit, and Ranger does something new. Other than that, same old, same old.
Something I think a lot of people forget about this series is that it's not supposed to be literary genius. It's supposed to be entertaining, lighthearted, fun. While the basic plot of the books in this series tends to have the same set-up, what changes is the personal relationships. I think the action of the books is more of a means to an end. The characters need something to do so they are hunting down bad guys, and in the process the real story, the story of the character relationships, develops. The characters don't grow dramatically throughout the books, but I think they change in subtle ways and they keep the story interesting. For me, this is a fun series to read and has a couple of great characters that make me smile and keep me reading. If you don't mind the repetetiveness of the plot, I think these are a great series of books to read and a lot of fun. Can't wait to see more of the relationships developing and what will happen next, and I hope it continues to stay interesting.

YES! Stephanie finally ditches Joe! On to the ship of Steph and Ranger!
Also, I'm shocked that her new vehicle made it through over half the book. The motorcycle, though?!? Such an odd choice.

love this series!!!
But I will say, I listened via audiobook and the new style in which the recorder presented the characters really through me off. Grandma didn’t sound like grandma for a while, and it took me a while to get used to Ranger’s new voice.
