Book Description
ONE FINE MESS
Welcome to Trenton, New Jersey, home to wiseguys, average Joes, and Stephanie Plum, who sports a big attitude and even bigger money problems (since losing her job as a lingerie buyer for a department store). Stephanie needs cash-fast-but times are tough, and soon she's forced to turn to the last resort of the truly desperate: family...
ONE FALSE MOVE
Stephanie lands a gig at her sleazy cousin Vinnie's bail bonding company. She's got no experience. But that doesn't matter. As does the fact that the bail jumper in question is local vice cop Joe Morelli. From the time he first looked up her dress to the time he first got into her pants, to the time Steph hit him with her father's Buick, M-o-r-e-l-l-i has spelled t-r-o-u-b-l-e. And now the hot guy is in hot water-wanted for murder...
ONE FOR THE MONEY
Abject poverty is a great motivator for learning new skills, but being trained in the school of hard knocks by people like psycho prizefighter Benito Ramirez isn't. Still, if Stephanie can nab Morelli in a week, she'll make a cool ten grand. All she has to do is become an expert bounty hunter overnight-and keep herself from getting killed before she gets her man...

Cute funny and very fast read.

Sent to CheriePie today. Enjoy!

Thanks NeedSun, for the first 4 books of the Stephanie Plum series. I can't wait to read them as I've heard nothing but great things about them! :)

Just finished this this morning. It was a great start to a new series and I look forward to reading more adventures with Stephanie Plum. I started Two for the Dough right after I finished up this one since I knew I still had a bit of time before a few more rings/rays started rolling in.
I plan to keep this one in reserve for a little bit until I've read the next few in the series, and then plan to pass them along engroupe to another BC'er, in the same way NeedSun has shared them with me. :)

This book will be used to restart Sherri5762's stalled bookring for books 1 through 8 of the Stephanie Plum series. (See http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/834057 for the list of participants.)
In this restored ring, the books will be sent out 2 at a time, after I've read them. Here's the link to the first two books, traveling together, under their new BCID:
· One for the Money
· Two for the Dough
Here's the remaining ring participants:
· jamieh2003, WV <== skip for books 1-3
· Rojeli, TN
· Lorelei03, NY
· Sherri5762, TX <== return to Sherri

Thanks to CheriePie, this book, and eventually the others in the series, will be replacing a book ring / box I sent out that has been stalled in PA for more than a year.
This book and the other 7 will be going out on a journey across the country in a book ring. Please PM me or e-mail me ([email protected]) if you are interested in joining.
Here is the list of where the box is going so far:
Reader1212 - WA
lisabb2 - Iowa
martie-kr = OH
InAPerfectBind - PA
jamieh2003 - WV
Rojeli - TN
Lorelei03 - NY
Sherri5762 - TX

Well, jamieh2003 already has books 1 thru 3, and I haven't been able to rouse up Rojeli or Lorelei03, even with an ISO post in the bookrings forum. In addition, Sherri5762 finally received her copies back from InAPerfectBind, where they were stalled for over a year. Thus, this copy of One for the Money is going back into my AVL list.
I've got future books in the series to offer up as needed as I read them. I'll check with Sherri as I go along...
