What is the author's style in Smitten by Janet Evanovich?

The language of the narrative might most relevantly be described as "breezy" - light, humorous, occasionally thoughtful and even moving, but ultimately without a great deal of intensity. Even potentially dramatic moments such as the appearances of the flasher, Lizabeth's troubled history with Paul, Matt's revelations about his painful past, and the injury to Ferguson the dog are narrated with a lightness of touch that keeps things from getting too heavy.
