I think this was one of the better ones in a while. It had some fun new twists and characters.

Best of the series in quite awhile

This seems a return to the style of the earliest books in the series. It was less farcical, although still funny, and more plot driven. I have to say, despite liking the character of Morelli, his general absence as a dominant character in this one helped. In isolated relation to the realm of Stephanie Plum, this gets 4/5 stars.

This one was REALLY good! I don’t know what happened since the last book, but I’m liking these even more now!

Another quick and easy read.  I loved Potts, he freshened things up a little.

Fortune and Glory continues the saga of Grandma Mazur and the missing keys. I didn't enjoy the last book because of that storyline and I didn't enjoy most of this book because of that storyline. This book has made me realize I am too disappointed in Stephanie's lack of growth to even want to read what will happen next. The bed hopping between Ranger and Morelli is ridiculous at this point. I am no Ranger fan but Joe Morelli deserves someone mature to settle with.

The best parts of this book were any time Potts was around. A novella with Potts and Lula on a misadventure would definitely be a laugh and would have me ready to turn each page.

In an unusual twist for this series, the storyline for this book follows from the previous book in the series. There is lots of gun fire, bad guys, and of course many cars meet their fate in this book!
