She's accidentally destroyed a dozen cars. She's a target for every psycho and miscreant this side of the Jersey Turnpike. Her mother's convinced she'll end up dead . . . or worse, without a man. She's Stephanie Plum, and she kicks butt for a living (well, she thinks it sounds good to put it that way. . . .).

It begins as an innocent trip to the deli-mart, on a quest for nachos. But Stephanie Plum and her partner, Lula, are clearly in the wrong place at the wrong time. A robbery leads to an explosion, which leads to the destruction of yet another car. It would be just another day in the life of Stephanie Plum, except that she becomes the target of a gang—and of an even scarier, more dangerous force that comes to Trenton. With super bounty hunter Ranger acting more mysteriously than ever (and the tension with vice cop Joe Morelli getting hotter), she finds herself with a decision to make: how to protect herself and where to hide while on the hunt for a killer known as the Junkman. There's only one safe place, and it has Ranger's name all over it—if she can find it. And if the Junkman doesn't find her first. With Lula riding shotgun and Grandma Mazur on the loose, Stephanie Plum is racing against the clock in her most suspenseful novel yet. Ten Big Ones is thrilling entertainment, and Janet Evanovich is the best there is.

Great fun!

Terrific narration!

These stories are just laugh out loud good. An odd combination of bounty hunting, humanity, triangular relationships and a truly bizarre yet extremely entertaining cast of family and co-workers.

Do yourself a favour, listen.

Another fabulous book!

I can always count on Stephanie Plum, Lulu, Ranger, Moreli & Grandma Mauzer to brighten my day!

Love the Plum Series

Comical, sexy and excitement all wrapped into one!
Janet Evanovich has a way of makes it all so believable… love Stephanie’s family interactions.
Lorelei King is the perfect person to make each character sound as unique as it is written and interesting to listen to!

Amazingly relatable

Steph Plum is insanely relatable. I never get tired of listening to this book and the way she ended the book was totally chefs kiss worthy

The triangle love interests.

I love all of it. This series gives it all. Action, love, and comedy to name a few.

A Fun Story with distinct characters

I listen to audiobooks for many reasons, to learn things, to "read" books I do not have time for, and to relax and be distracted. Ten Big Ones, for me, fully meets the criteria for the "relax and be distracted" category. This was my second Stephanie Plum book, and I am on Audible tonight to buy a third. Stephanie Plum lives in world rich with detail and strong (and different) characters. The end of Ten Big Ones includes a brief interview with the author who explains why she left painting, and writing romance novels to write "humorous Indiana Jones stories". Ten Big Ones is a story I always looked forward to getting back to, and one that offered a delightful respite from the "should" books on my iPod (like 8th Habit). I recommend it not as a Ludlum or a Grisham, just a fun and engaging story

love this series!!

This is a great series, I highly recommend it! I'm always looking forward to the next one. Janet Evanovich has a wonderful sense of humor and the ironic.
The comment of reviewer 'sharol' bewildered me, though, Lorelei King narrated both "To The Nines" and "Hard Eight". She did an excellant job with two other excellant books. The reader does make a difference and Ms. King does a very good job making the books come to life.

Lorelei King is Great

Reviewer "sharol" is right about Ms King as a narrator, but wrong about "To the Nines." King narrarated that book as well. "To the Nines" was the first Evanovich book I listened to or read. Ms King's characterizations made that book very entertaining and had me wanting more. Unfortunately, my second Evanovich book was narrated by Debbie Mazar, and while she is not bad, she doesn't hold a candle to Lorelei King. Evanovich's stories are solid. Listen to those narrated by King, read the others.

Trenton my favorite town

I have enjoyed the 10th book about bounty hunter, Stephanie Plum and her exploits. I look forward to listening to them all. Evanovich's characters are endearing and the things they do and say are hilarious. Lorelie King is an excellent narrator and brings more depth and humor to the characters with her "Jersey " accents. I would love to cruise the streets of Trenton in the powder blue Buick with Stephanie, her family and Lula, or better yet, one of Ranger's shiny, black, expensive SUV's!

Another great story

Enjoyed the perils of Stephanie again. All the characters are entertaining and each makes a little progress in their lives in this story. Especially enjoyed the surprise ending. The reader does a good job with the various voices. Some of the men sound a little conjested, but maybe they are - doesn't detract from the story though.
