Gillian Pentycote is a woman with a past she no longer remembers. Her few memories consist of the evil men who gave her drugs to erase her memory and Travis James who she knows as Angel. After her rescue by Special Defense Force (SDF) operators, they trained her to be a killing machine. She now goes by the name of Red Dog and her only objective is tracking down Tony Royce, the man who ruined her life. She keeps sending him messages that he cannot ignore. She is willing to sacrifice everything, even her Angel, to exact her revenge. Will she cross the line between hired gun and cold-blooded killer? Is there any way for her to regain the semblance of life that she once had?

Travis James is an SDF agent who blames himself for what happened to Gillian. She is no longer the loving woman that he remembers, but he continues to stay by her side. He knows she suffers nightmares about the man who tortured her. His only objective is to find him before she does. He knows that once she crosses the line to kill for revenge that there is no going back. He intends to do everything within the law, and hopefully without her involvement to bring Tony Royce down. Will he be able to bring about justice for Gillian? Will he be able to win the girl in the process?

Tara Janzen has written an intense, fast paced story. The main character, Red Dog, is a bit dark and disturbed, but you can understand the rage that drives her. Travis and Red Dog have an interesting relationship, but I think the more intriguing love story is between a secondary set of characters. Perhaps we will learn more about them in another book. Past Crazy characters also make appearances in the book, so you find out what is going on with them. CRAZY SWEET is a mission not to be missed.

Book Summary

During a secret mission gone bad, covert operator Gillian Pentycote ceased to exist. Held captive by a madman, shot full of drugs that stole her memory, Gillian survived. Now, with a new identity and nothing to lose, the woman who calls herself Red Dog has gone from bookish secretary to sizzling-hot hired gun. And she has one plan: to find the man who shattered her life and take him down for good.

Special agent Travis James has the same plan, except he has rules to follow–and using a gorgeous amnesiac as bait isn’t in them. So Travis must play a dangerous double game of his own. He knows Red Dog will do anything to lure the ultimate criminal to her side and exact revenge. But from Central America to a Colorado showdown, Travis has gotten his priorities straight. He’ll kill the bad guy, but only if he can save the beauty–and never, ever let her go....
