Sizzling Sixteen

by Janet Evanovich, 309 pages

Vinnie owes money to his bookie who is now answering to Bobby Sunflower, a very bad man. Sunflower decides to make an example out of Vinnie, and kidnaps him, demanding that Vinnie's family and friends pay off the debt in one week or else. The problem is, Vinnie's father-in-law, Harry the Hammer, isn't too pleased with Vinnie and is more than happy to watch him rot. Stephanie, Connie, and Lula are the only people left willing to save Vinnie, after all, if Vinnie dies, they are out of a job. The ladies hatch a scheme to rescue Vinnie and pay off his debt. So what if stink bombs, fried chicken, and hobbits aren't exactly bounty hunter weapons of choice? When it works, it works.

Evanovich is great with character names, but she's outdone herself this time with the hobbits. I'm not saying anything else... if you want the scoop you'll have to read the book!
