I have to tell you that, so far, I've only read Crime & Cake by N.m. Silber but, if the rest are anywhere as good, then I will definitely enjoy them, too. I LOVE Ms. Silber's books and novellas because you can't make it thru a single page without laughing. Crime & Cake is no different. It is a novella about Sarah, a lawyer with The Defender's Association and Matt, an assist DA. Sarah has had a "thing" for Matt for a while but, he is unaware. Then Sarah does a favor for a friend by dressing as Marilyn Monroe, jumping out of a cake and giving the 85 yr. old birthday boy a cigar. The party is raided and Sarah runs into Matt as she's trying to sneak out the back door. The Hilarity ensues as these two start spending more time together in court, some people try to steal the cigar, Sarah's friend is set up with Matt's friend A beer garden, girl, a 6'2" Cher and a human hot dog get involved. I could go on and on but, I'm sure you get the idea!

What a really good short story it truly is laugh out loud funny. I thought these two were going to wind up passionately attacking each other in the middle of the courtroom from the sexual tension. I loved how she was such a tiger in the courtroom and very flirty while in costume which really got her into trouble. i loved how when he recognized her he didn't get her into trouble and make her lose her job. I can't wait to read more of these two in the future.

I don't know what the heck I just read, but the last bit was pretty frigging funny. SO this was Matt's book from Night Court. He fell for Sarah who at the beginning jumped out a cake. After rowing out of a drug raid, hurting her ankle and meeting Matt, these two had a Gabby and Braden moment where they eye fuck each other in court and get turn on while battling it out in front the judge. I guess they fell in love. This was quick and I mean a QUICK read.

It's not worth but if you get it as bonus book, that's ok, two people meet in the place they shouldn't but they did n getting to build their relationship n so do their friends.

An okay story. It was funny enough, but the ending felt a bit rushed, especially the scene with the goons after the cigar. Also could have done with better punctuation.
