Two for the Dough

Two for the Dough is the second in the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich.
Here, Stephanie is chasing down Kenny Mancuso, Joe's cousin. He turns out to be crazy, and working with Spiro, the undertaker's son.

This is also the one where Steph burns down the funeral home and leaves Joe naked in a parking lot after a rather heavy session in the back of the Buick. Oh, wait...not naked. She gives him his gun back first.

Anyway, it's full of all the things we love about Stephanie. Madness, an inability to actually get anything done, bumbling around just happening on everything. There's a severe lack of Ranger in this book, but as of yet, he's more a side character than a main player.

She and Joe aren't involved yet at this point either, so there's a lot of sexual tension...

Wait, this is a Stephanie Plum novel. There's always sexual tension. Part of why we love it.

Okay. That's what I've got.
