Tara Janzen
Dell
November 2007
978-0-440-24384-7
Paperback
Romantic Suspense

 

Tara Janzen is once again ON THE LOOSE as she takes readers on an incredibly fast-paced race through guerrilla camps, drug lords, DEA agents and wayward nuns!

C. Smith Rydell is ex-DEA and cool as a cucumber.  At least he was until he was pulled from a dangerous mission and sent to play bodyguard to pampered socialite Honey York.  Honey is the same woman he caught smuggling cash into El Salvador a few months ago and now she is planning to go back, with him.

Honey’s sister the nun in ON THE LOOSE again and now Honey has to find a guerrilla camp, deliver a briefcase, find her sister and find her way home in a forty-eight hour period.  It helps that her bodyguard is extremely well trained and no stranger to Honey.

Tara Janzen’s latest wacky romantic suspense, ON THE LOOSE, is everything we have come to expect from a Tara Janzen book.  The heroine is beautiful, sexy and far more than she appears.  She is smart, loyal and surprisingly capable.  Her hero is a strong, well trained alpha male with no time for relationships, until he meets our girl, the one who got away.  The secondary characters, the drug lords, assassins and especially the nuns, enhance this storyline tenfold.

ON THE LOOSE is zany, action-packed and dangerous fun.  The sex is playful and inevitable and still manages to be steamy hot.  The story within a story is a nice set up for a future adventure.  Sure, the unbelievable pace of the book requires a bit of a stretch of imagination, but when you pair a socialite with a spec ops operative, you expect to be stretching that imagination a little bit, right?

Tara Janzen’s ON THE LOOSE may not have a deep storyline that keeps you glued to your chair, but it is definitely an enjoyable read that keeps readers entertained from first page to last.  Fans of wild and wacky romance with some adventure tossed in for good measure will be delighted with Tara Janzen’s ON THE LOOSE.
