Book Description:
When the delightful, daffy Dog Lady of station WZZZ offered to take on the temporary job of traffic reporter, Steve Crow tried to think of reasons to turn Daisy Adams down. Perhaps he knew that sharing the close quarters of a car with her for hours would give the handsome program director no room to resist her quirky charms. He'd always favored low-slung sportscars and high-heeled women, but that was before he fell for a free spirit who caught crooks by accident, loved old people and pets, and had just too many jobs!

Loving Daisy turned Steve's life upside down, especially once he adopted Bob, a huge dog masquerading as a couch potato. But was Daisy finally ready to play for keeps?

I got this from the library as an audio book and tormented my poor husband with making him listen to it with me. Much to my delight, he enjoyed it as much as I did. We both laughed so hard, it really perked up our entire weekend. Since then, we've listened to the occasional audio book from this author. I really enjoy her books, whether reading or listening to them. If you get the chance to read this one or any of her other's, I would really recommend them!

I thought this book was just a riot. It was a quick read and funny. As this is one of Evanovich's first books slightly reworked you can see certain characters that develope into the Stephanie Plum books.
Daisy is trying to finish her dissertation while doing a handful of odd jobs. She runs a paper route, she is a crossing guard, works at nursing home and does a little 5 minute radio slot on cooking for your pooches. When the regular traffic reporter becomes unavailable at the last minute Daisy begs for the job. While driving and reporting she runs over a drug dealer and finds herself in serious danger. So what does she do? Hire a gun toting geriatric grandmother who thinks the nursing home is just too boring of course.

Fun early book of Janet's where she introduces Bob the dog who shows up in her Plum stories. Also introduces what must be the prototype for Grandma Mazur.

Cute book! Janet Evanovich doesn't know how to write a bad book! I love all her books.

You know, these non-Stephanie Plum books, even though written by Janet Evanovich, read like someone is trying to imitate Janet Evanovich; they're just not quite the same. The quick turns are gone, the heroes and heroines are more like you'd find in romance novels... It might help you hang on until the next Plum comes out, but if I were you I'd go for a Fannie Flag.

This is the happy story of a guy who owns a radio station, a likeable overworked woman who does the traffic report and a dog named Bob. They all fall in love and outsmart the bad guys

Another re-release of a Janet Evanovich pre-Stephanie Plum book. Rocky Road is the happy story of a guy who owns a radio station, a lieable overworked woman who does the traffic report and a dog named Bob. They all fall in love, they outsmart some bad guys and they eat a lot of dessert.

Light easy funny read. Typical Evanovich.
