1. Favorite Stephanie Plum Book?

3. Joe or Ranger for Stephanie?

A Treasure Awaits!
Watch out, there's a new gal in town.
Grandma Mazur gets plenty of action this time around and some new characters in the latest Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich—Fortune and Glory. 5 STARS.
She has two dead husbands. The custom is to move your wedding band from your left to your right hand. Now she has two rings. But she thinks it is not right to have both of them so close together. Then she notices the dates inside the band from Jimmy, her latest mob husband who died. A clue?
Jimmy Roselli was the Keeper of the Keys —Grandma Mazur's mob hubby. Died and left behind 3 keys in a La-Z-Boy chair. There are also, of course, the wedding rings (which may contain a clue or two).
Two clues are inside a safe at the Mole Hole strip club with good burgers). Ace it #1 and Philadelphia #3. If you tried to open the safe without the keys, it's Hiroshima. The keys are needed to open a safe that contains something valuable.
Jimmy, a south Jersey guy. He liked the shore. Wildwood, Cape May, and Atlantic City. He liked the slots and poker. So where?
Grandma must find the secret treasure with Stephanie's help. It is a dangerous proposition. A safe. Diamonds, money, bodies, or what and where? What did Jimmy leave her?
Jimmy's mob friends (6 of them) La-Z-Boys are after the treasure; however, Stephanie and Grandma Mazur are right behind them.
Stephanie— has some competition this go around for Morelli and Ranger's attention. As always, she is loyal to her family and her cupcakes. But she is a bounty hunter and surely she can help Grandma find the treasure. But little does she know all the others on the trail.
Morelli is kind of out of the picture—at the moment, and it is "game on" for Ranger.
Gabriela Rose—A new kick-ass character. A Latina Wonder woman beauty, Rachel Ray, and GI Ninja rolled into one. (who will star in June 2021 novel And best of all: you get a sneak peek)!
George Potts — Stephanie's new bodyguard, geeky sidekick, wingman. Age 37. Unemployed. He is allergic to everything, has PTSD, and lives at home, and plays video games in his PJs.
More action and adventure— than ever. With Gabriela, Morelli, and Ranger. La-Z-Boys' Tunnels and the Mole Hole. Comic books—Superman and Uncle Scrooge.
Even more cars: blowing up and buildings — (signature). Plus, it wouldn't be Stephanie Plum without some funeral home, caskets, viewings, and cemetery action.
Lula is always up for an adventure as long as there is food around, especially chicken and donuts. Love her!
Stephanie's Mom— threatening to put Grandam Mazur in an assisted living.
Stephanie is feeling down. About her love life. Her job. Her apartment. Her inability to cook, shoot, figure out streaming, understand the cloud, or complete any of the books recommended by Oprah. She still has Rex her pet hamster and shared custody with Bob, the golden retriever with on and off again Joe Morelli.
But now there is the mysterious beauty, Gabriela. Stephanie thinks she has her hooks into her ex-boyfriend, and now she thinks she is trying to steal her family's treasure.
Always the conflict between Ranger vs. Morelli. Maybe Stephanie will decide she does not need to settle for either one.
Plenty of action from Rangers SWAT team: Rangemen. Always some bad boys on the trail.
La-Z-Boy(s) — Who knew a chair and good ole boy mob buddies could get so much action? When the journey is as exciting as the destination!
Join in the fun. Want some laughs and entertainment? (don't we all crave right now, especially today). Find it here, better than ever! Janet Evanovich always has some surprises up her sleeve and more to come. Her best yet!

And... I'm all caught up. No more crazy adventures until November I guess. As much as I love Stephanie, she wouldn't be as entertaining as she is if it wasn't for Lula, Grandma, & Connie. They deserve all the credit (in my opinion anyway!).
"Here it is. You think you know someone and then next thing they tell you is that they want a Chihuahua named Chardonnay."
"And then there's me and Grandma with Superhero Derangement Syndrome."
"I love you, too," Grandma said. "Maybe that's why God gave us death. So, we remember to love what's alive."

The usual Stephanie Plum antics. Maybe the last in the series?? Fingers crossed! Nothing new ever happens and this series deserves to be put out of its misery.
