Yeah i think the tank thing was funny. That is cool, i love how Ranger trusts her and cares for her, i suppose that is how she makes him weak, when he worries about her, though we saw none of that in this book

Yeah, it almost seems like JE forgot who Ranger was when she wrote it. Actually, Steph didn't seem right to me either. Lula,Tank and Joe seemed right to me though.

I can't help but wonder if her love of yellow roses, since they mean friendship, is part of her commitment issues. After all, she loves a flower that symbolizes friendship, not love. But for Ranger to send her a red rose...I can only hope it means that he'll finally, truly get his foot in the door and realize what he could lose if he doesn't let her know how he really feels. Everyone that's read up to this point knows it's way more than attraction for him. He has feelings for her - I think he just doesn't know what to do about it. Typical man, totally clueless...

I am a cupcake!!!! I hate!!!! Stephanie with Ranger and love her with Morelli. He is good to her, loves her, takes care of her. Ranger is a flash, he loves his dangerous life more than her. Morelli and Stephanie belong together. Ranger accepts Stephanie's job only because he has her watched and followed constantly because he can not because he trusts her to be okay on her own. To me that is conrolling! If in the end Morelli and Stephanie are not together I will be very sad by Janet's choices.

I was so disapointed with book 14. I didn't even want to finish the darn thing.
___Spoiler in case you haven't read 14!!_____
There were only 2 parts that i liked.
1. When Steph told Ranger she 'couldn't tell him' why Tank was passed out. He said, "Excuse me?" I think that said alot about them. She is always open with him, in ways she isn't with Morelli and it shocked him that she wouldn't tell him something.
2. When Ranger seemed to almost whine about not getting anywhere with her. Like he was finally getting frustrated. And Stephanie said, maybe you need to change the destination. I liked that he considered it, said "Maybe, but not today".
Notice that when this book turned all domestic and homey with Steph and Morelli, Ranger was missing? What happens if she finally chooses Morelli and Ranger withdraws. What happens to Steph next time she gets into another one of her bad spots that Morelli doesn't have the power to help her with? He can never help her with the Really Bad stuff, it's always Ranger. Even before Ranger was a love interest...he was there for the serious stuff.
I also noticed that Ranger wouldn't even stop by to give her the information she needed. He'd always come personally before. He emailed it to Morelli instead. I think he is started to really hurt that she chooses Morelli all the time.
14 wasn't nearly as dangerous either, and notice Ranger didn't try to over protect her either. She didn't need the Merry Men this time...he only gives what she needs. -------------------------------
I'd be happy with the suggestion that there are two books at the end. One choosing Morelli, one choosing Ranger. I'd never read the Morelli one. But if Ranger is chosen i think we'll get alot more than 16 books. Her contract hasn't always been for 16...it keeps going up over the years doesn't it?

I'm new to the board... Love these books. I'm just about to start book 13, am kind of sad because that means that I'll soon be running out of Stephanie Plum books to read. Sad..... I love Steph's relationship with Morelli... but LOVE the little tihng she's got going with Ranger. I can't wait for the next time they hit the sheets... Even though Morelli is good in bed... it sounds like Ranger is better. When it comes right down to it though... I think Stephanie is in LOVE with Morelli... and more in LUST with Ranger, mixed in with a little love... Can't wait to start my new book...

I loved book 13 ... and i think your right she is more in love with morelli and lust with ranger ... ranger annoys me . . . he sounds iressistable . . . but he only really wants a `fling` with Steph. I hope she dosent get married to either of them ... thats why we love the books so much . . . the love triangle is dramatic and it won't settle until the last books

No i think you're wrong jeagles12, he doesnt want just a fling. He's already told steph if he gets her he wont let her go, where as Joe lets her come and go, if she were to get with Ranger it would be for good thats why they havent gotten serious yet. I do like Joe but im Ranger all the way man
