NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERLizzy and Diesel are back in an all-new wicked adventure from Janet Evanovich and Emmy Award–winning co-author Phoef Sutton.  Before he was murdered and mummified nearly a century ago, notorious bootlegger Collier “Peg Leg” Dazzle discovered and re-hid a famous pirate’s treasure somewhere along the coast of New England. A vast collection of gold and silver coins and precious gems, the bounty also contains the Stone of Avarice—the very item reluctant treasure seeker Lizzy Tucker and her partner, Diesel, have been enlisted to find. While Lizzy would just like to live a quiet, semi-normal life, Diesel is all about the hunt. And this hunt is going to require a genuine treasure map and a ship worthy of sailing the seven seas . . . or at least getting them from Salem Harbor to Maine.   Greed is eternal and insatiable, and Lizzy and Diesel aren’t the only ones searching for the lost pirate’s chest. People who have dedicated their entire lives to finding it are willing to commit murder or make a deal with the devil just to hold the fortune in their hands. One of those people may even be Wulf, Diesel’s deceptively charming and enigmatic cousin. Wulf desires the Stone of Avarice. He also desires Lizzy. It’s hard to say how far he’s willing to go to gain either one.   Wicked Charms is a swashbuckling adventure full of raiders, monkeys, minions, and mayhem. Lizzy and Diesel are going to have to do everything they can to keep their heads above water and hope they’re living a charmed life.Praise for Wicked Charms   “Delivers what Evanovich’s readers have come to expect: laughs, oddball situations, quirky supporting characters, and a dash or two of romance.”—Examiner.com

YAAAY AN EVANOVICH BOOK!! WHOOP WHOOP!SPOILERS*BEWAREThere was quite a long hiatus between the last book of this series and this latest installment, but it was worth the wait. Only Janet Evanovich (and whichever co-writer she's got tagging along at the moment) can pull off something this fantastically ridiculous. Her books aren't full of hidden meaning or saturated with detail, but that's okay. They're fun reads, "summer" or "beach" reads as some like to call them, mostly light-hearted and hilarious--but they can have their dark moments where all of a sudden you're like, Whoa. This sh*t just got real.Lizzie strongly reminds me of Stephanie Plum from Janet's most popular series, and Diesel seems like a delicious mash-up of Ranger and Joe Morelli. I'm okay with that, because I can't get enough of any of those characters. Glo is Lula, Clara is Connie, Cat is Rex, Carl is Bob. Hatchet could be Vinnie or Joyce Barnhardt. There are fancy cars and explosions--classic Janet. (Hey, if you've found a formula that works, why mess with it?) The characters aren't one-dimensional cardboard cutouts, but they aren't particularly deep, either. The only thoughts and emotions the reader is privy to are Lizzy's, and those are pretty low-key unless she's about to drown or has a gun pointed at her. Then she gets a little worked up. But for all the crazy stuff that happens, the characters' reactions are remarkably blase. It's fitting in the context of the book, though, which is meant to be a cartoonish, fast-paced adventure. You're not supposed to have time to think about the logic--or lack thereof.
