From The Publisher:
It's five days before Christmas and things are not looking merry for Fugitive Apprehension Agent Stephanie Plum. She hasn't got a tree. She hasn't bought any presents. The malls are jam-packed with staggering shoppers. There's not a twinkle light anywhere to be seen in her apartment-and there's a strange man in her kitchen. Sure, this has happened to Stephanie Plum before. But this guy is different. He's mysterious, sexy-and has his own agenda. His name is Diesel, and he's on a mission. The question is, what does he want with her? Can he help her find a little old toy maker who has skipped out on his bail right before Christmas? Can he survive the Plum family holiday dinner? Can he get Stephanie a tree that doesn't look like it was grown next to a nuclear power plant? These questions and more are keeping Stephanie awake at night. Not to mention the fact that she needs to find a bunch of nasty elves, her sister Valerie has a Christmas "surprise" for the Plums, her niece Mary Alice doesn't believe in Santa anymore, and Grandma Mazur has a new stud muffin. So bring out the plastic reindeer, strap on your jingle bells, and get ready to celebrate the holidays-Jersey style.

This is a short story masquerading as a novel, and a thin and hackneyed story at that. I was a fan of Evanovich until this, but it's such a cynical grab for cash, she should be ashamed of herself. A complete waste of money.
This is a shorter than usual Stephanie Plum book but suitable for reading in one sitting. A little magic, a little adventure and a lot of Christmas spirit with a twist!
The hilarious characters come out in force in this book, her sister has a huge surprise for the whole family.
A great pre Christmas wind-down read.
Introducing magic and superheros into a world previously grounded in reality shouldn't work, yet somehow it does in this book. With the introduction of Diesel, lock picking super strong super hero at large Stephanie Pumb attempts to stop a deranged octogenarian who just happens to be able to fry people at some distance with lightning shooting out of his hands.
Its hard to explain how that could be good, but it reall y is, especially when Grandma gets involved.
From the word go this books is witty and full of speed. As this books is smaller than the rest of the Plum series there is not much time for a whirlpool of adventure. Grandma Mazur does not disapoint and there are moments where you will laugh out loud. This is a great fluffy book to sit down and read in one sitting on a raining afternoon.
