"It's been too long since I read the first book in the series (Full House) but even so, this was a great book too. It was not as predictable as I thought. Each time I thought I knew "who done it" the storyline changed and I started second guessing who the "bad guy" really was. I feel a few questions are left unanswered, but I think they will be hit again in the next book in the series....at least I hope so! Easy read, funny, great weekend/beach/vacation book to just dive into for a while."

Janet Evanovich and Charlotte Hughes excel at delivering outrageous situations that are chock full of over-the-top characters and humor.
— RT Book Reviews" Aaaargh! The main characters in the first book are mentioned once and this one is about the 16 yr old whiz kid from the first one. Now he's grown up and has NONE of the characteristics of the youngster from Full House. WTH?! This series is so messed up. When you get past that part and just look at each book individually, it's a decent book, but not at all worth having Evanovich's name on it. "
— Kimberlie, 2/10/2014" This story is about Max (all grown up from #1) an Jamie. LOVE max's car. "
— Erica, 2/8/2014" Jamie recommended this series to me. Since I was already liked reading Evanovich's crime by # books I gladly read this too. "
— Collette, 2/3/2014" The 2nd book in author Janet Evanovich's FULL series is a great read and good follow up to the 1st book, Full House, in the series. I enjoyed this book almost as much as the first. "
— Misty, 2/2/2014" If u need a beach read, lazy mindless book- this is a great escape read. "
— Kati, 1/25/2014" This book was okay - just pretty mindless and predictable. I think I'll take a break from Janet Evanovich for a while. "
— Stacy, 1/22/2014" I really like this book. It had a little bit of everything in it (romance, action, humor, great characters, a little mystery). I would definitely recommend it. I'm looking forward to reading more in this series. "
— Angela, 1/16/2014" Fun to read might look into the sequels. I think I figured out the ending fairly quickly but it was still fun to watch it unfold. "
— Casey, 1/3/2014" I didn't think that was as good as the first book in the series, maybe it will get better between Max and Jamie in the third book since no one is standing in their way... for now! "
— Traci, 12/27/2013" I enjoyed this one even more than "Full House"; less 'romance', more 'mystery', and just as many laughs which kept it entertaining...I just wish I had "Full Speed" in front of me, to keep the story going!! "
— Maurean, 12/19/2013" Over the top, predictable, unbelievable, and unrealistic are all applicable descriptions of this book. Evanovich is the Featured Author in this month's challenge group so I thought I'd try one. Apparently this is not the one to try. "
— Photojim, 12/17/2013" fun book to read, fast and fun "
— Jo, 12/10/2013" an early evanovich book, a bit of a thriller, smart alec characters, sexual angst, but it's missing something. "
— sis, 12/6/2013" Only slightly marginally better than Full House. I wouldn't recommend it. I did find it hilarious that Beenie's concussion caused him to be heterosexual haha. 2.5/5 stars. "
— Sandy, 11/23/2013" Another Janet Evanovich good read. Enjoy reading her books. "
— Martha, 8/18/2013" Really did not like this nearly as much as the Stephanie Plum novels... "
— Jen, 6/24/2013" there is life outside of stephanie plum! "
— Tricia, 3/11/2013" What a great story. Had a difficult time putting this book down for bed. Kept my attention at a high setting and was thrilled with the story from begining to end. Worth the read in my opinion. "
— Rebecca, 2/23/2013" Not the usual laugh out loud Evanovich tale. Read it in a day on my way home from vacation [speed read..:] It was an ok plane read but not much more. Then again, sometimes that's enough! "
— Jean, 9/13/2012" This book was good. Not my favorite but written with the same type of feel as the Plum series. "
— Tanya, 8/12/2012" Okay time waster prefer the Stephanie Plum Series "

— Alissa, 11/21/2011" How is this the second? What is the first in this series? "
— Margaret, 9/14/2011" Better then the Alex Barnaby series, but still not at good as the Plum series. Pretty good for a romance, and not as sappy as Full House. "
— Whittney, 6/22/2011" Silly story, characters even sillier. "
