Customer Reviews

Excellent

I loved this book. I love the series. I cant wait until the next one is out.

Another Winner!

The lastest escapades of the Chop Shop boys is another page turner in this fabulously entertaining series. Suzi Toussi, and farily newcomer, Dax Killian take center stage in the latest installment set in Paraguay. Glimpses of Suzi's traumatic past are revealed and some intriguing connections are exposed while she goes head to head with Dax over a supposedly mystical statue. They match wits against each other while staying one step ahead of the ruthless competition. This book is fast paced and virtually non-stop action! I love the way Ms. Janzen gives each character their own little quirks and picadilloes to make them more real. The intertwining story in this book is whether or not The Steele Street boys have found one of their own, believed to be lost to them forever. The two stories converge in a hail of bullets and blood, leaving questions that smoothly lay the groundwork for the next much anticipated installment! Another winner from Tara Janzen!

fast-paced SDF action thriller

General Grant, head of the Special Defense Forces, has no one ON THE LOOSE for his latest mission. Instead he sends contractor agent Suzi Toussi, a fine art expert (as both are needed on this assignment), to Paraguay to find and retrieve the stolen Memphis Sphinx that allegedly has mystical powers. Also seeking the ancient Egyptian statue is Dax Killian, who needs the Sphinx to make an exchange with Erich Warner for information she possesses and he desperately wants to makes a Faustian deal. He is taken aback to see Suzi in a dive in dangerous Ciudad del Este. Dax vows to assist her in obtaining the Sphinx, but he will then snatch it from her; but soon finds he is rescuing her from one hot spot after another until their passion ignites. This is a fast-paced SDF action thriller that will remind readers of Romancing the Stone with a roguish hero and an art guru who proves masterpiece paintings and kicking butt are compatible. The story line is fast-paced and somewhat over the top of Cerro Peró, but no one will care as the game is afoot with Dax struggling between his growing love for Suzi and his need to purloin the relic from her.

High octane romantic adventure

Suzi Toussi and Dax Killian are the romantic leads in the latest hit in the Crazy and Loose series. They and a bunch of bad guys are in Paraguay to authenticate, the purported magical and know only in rumors, myth, and stories, Manned Sphinx of Sesostris III. The Sphinx is said to grant: unlimited power; the ability to see the past, future, and present locations remotely; as well as immortality and resurrection when held up into the moonlight on the third full moon in the year of Horus. Easy to see why everyone wants it and will kill to get it, and guess what happening tomorrow night? Yup, that full moon. When the showing to the potential buyers goes bad - mayhem and death ensue - the race is on to find the still missing Sphinx. And so Tara Janzen's trademark twenty four hours of action, romantic adventure and suspense begins. As always the Special Defenses Force team achieves their goals, which may or not be those they have been tasked with... "Breaking Loose" is the tenth book in this awesome series and is another excellent work of pure entertainment. This book like all the others can be read alone. But, for the full wonderfulness of the adventures and romance featuring these fabulous Steele Street chop shop boys read them all. Tara Janzen delivers her signature style of an action packed, thriller-diller, special ops; romantic adventure and suspense. Her characters are well drawn; there is plenty of romance, and great dialogue as well as fast action. As is true in all these books, the first part is a build up to the ending that goes out with a bang, and this one's a total cliff hanger too! There are interesting side characters, plots and sub-plots, more of past characters and of characters that will star in the next book. Suzi and Dax were set up as the romantic interest in the previous book ("Loose and Easy"). We last saw them having just missed each other for a breakfast date at the conclusion of the last book's action (about six months ago). They have not seen each other since then, but have been obsessing on each other. They have both indulged their obsession by doing a deep background check on the other, so our information about Suzi and Dax's pasts is revealed via their thoughts, comments, and actions to each other related to this research. That could have been weird, but it worked for me as it helps emphasize their regret about missing the breakfast date, the two ships passing in the night thing, and that they both locked in on the other as "the one". That, great sex, and the HEA are essential for a excellent romance, and this one is that and more. Although Suzi and Dax are not my most favored of the couples in this series, that does not diminish this book for me at all. Ms. Janzen stays true to form and all the aspect of these books that I love are there. Like, there is a continuing thread about the women's underwear in these books, I think that's cool and I liked what she did with Suzi's underwear. Also, lear
