Book Description:
BUBBLES IS BACK! And so is trouble in an all-new adventure featuring Lehigh, Pennsylvania's hairdresser/newspaper reporter Bubbles Yablonsky. Having survived a slip-and-fall on Payless heels, Bubbles catapults off a Caddy in the PolkaFest parade and into the arms of danger as she tracks down the whereabouts of two missing beauty queens while also keeping a mascaraed eye out for her hunka hunka burning love, Stiletto. On hand to help - or maybe hinder - are a couple of septuagenarian survivalists shilling their Die-O-Ramas, an office assistant obsessed with UPS drivers, a dude named Stinky and Josh Simon the billionaire casino owner who just be the knight in shining armor to rescue Bubbles from an aluminum-sided world. Or maybe not. Homemade beauty treatments and recipes featuring authentic Pennsylvania cuisine complement the writing. (It sucks and there's not nearly enough!) The 7th installment in this award-winning (Agatha, Romantic Times) and bestselling series published in seven language will have you smiling with relief that you didn't pay more.
Okay, so when is the next book coming out -dammit! You can't leave us hanging like this without us knowing when our misery will end!
Yes, this book ends on a sort of cliffhanger -now notice I said a "sort of" cliffhanger. I can't tell you much about the story itself, because anything I say is going to be a spoiler!
And let me tell you if you have been reading the entire series you may start out a little disappointed with this book at first. but stick with it-it really is a fantastic entry into this series. I just wonder why it took Ms. Strohmeyer so long to get back to it.
The characters are exactly as I remember them, but Bubbles has grown a bit, Dan is still the ex that I want to smack in the face with an iron frying pan, Sandy is still, well, Sandy and Bubbles Mom and Genevieve are still the same.
We are missing Bubbles daughter Jane who has sone her own way and Stiletto only makes peripheral visits and nothing hot to look forward to. (bummer) The heat has always been good n this series but never lewd or 'dirty' if you know what I mean. No graphic descriptions of body parts or fluids thank you very much!!!
Another interesting thing to note -this series is really a good price -2.99$ for each book -not a bad value for something you might read a second or third time. HOWEVER -not all of the books are n e-book form yet and I really hope they come out that way very soon.
I recommend this series---so much so, that even though I finished the entire series yesterday, I may very well re-read it again when I finish the next 5 books I have on my TBR pile!
