Loose and Easy

Whenever I read Janzen, I know I'm in for a wild ride. This was no exception! This book was indeed a wild ride from beginning to end.

Johnny Ramos has just returned home after spending time in Afghanistan only to find himself following good girl Esmee Alden and she is not exactly doing something a good girl should do, unless you count pretending she's a street walker only to end up tying up a German visitor and stealing whatever it was the guy had good. Johnny has never forgotten the pretty little Esmee and this new side of her intrigues him. Perhaps a little bit too much.

Esmee is working hard to fix the mistakes of her parents okay, her father. As a PI she's in a perfect place to do just that. And then she runs into bad boy Johnny Ramos, her high school crush to enter her life and once again make her think naughty bad thoughts. High school is long over but the lust she feels for this man is anything but high school. Too bad her plans don't include falling in love with him. What's a girl supposed to do when life throws you a hunk?

I have enjoyed all of Ms. Janzen's titles and Loose and Easy delivers! This is a fast paced, sexy read with dynamic characters that the reader will be able to relate to. A sweet walk down memory lane with high octane passion and plenty of action. Readers will be left satisfied with this story!

I loved this book. Tara Janzen is a terrific writer. She puts so much action into her books that keep the reader excited and interested in what is going to happen next. I can not wait for the next book to come out.

I love this whole series by Tara Janzen. I picked up Cutting Losse and loved it so much that I found all the earlier titles and read them too. I love the Steele Street chop-shop boys and even owned a muscle car myself in my much younger years!

A cast of thousands don't make a good book. I cannot tell you how many threads there are in this story. And most of them go absolutely nowhere. Also. No input from contemporary world politics. Most of the plot is firmly rooted in irrelevent and trivial Denver crimeland.

The reappearance of Suzi Toussi is a big let-down. Didn't she dump Hawkins and move on to another SDF guy in a previous story? And didn't Hawkins breathe a sigh of relief when she left? And suddenly she's being built up as the drop-dead gorgeous heroine for a new book.

There is only one reason to read this novel...The J. T. thread. Wow! If you can keep awake during the Esmee and Johnny borefest, you will get a huge payoff. Is it a tease for the next book or an ongoing thread for all the following stories?

I definitely want to know. More Dylan and Hawkins please. Forget the new blood. Let's see the more mature guys in the action. (No deaths though)
