#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHORJANET EVANOVICHONE FOR THE MONEYA Stephanie Plum Novel"Comes roaring in like a blast of very fresh air...Goes down like a tall, cool, drink."-The Washington PostREAD THE DYNAMITE BLOCKBUSTER THAT STARTED IT ALL!"Snappily written, fast paced and witty."-USA TodayONE FINE MESSWelcome 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 MOVEStephanie 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 MONEYAbject 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..."Evanovich is funny and ceaselessy inventive."-Los Angeles Times Book Review"Evanovich's writing is smooth, clever and laugh-aloud. Her plot is ingenious and fresh, her dialogue breezy, bright, witty, and gutsy."-Booklist p0(starred Review)
