I gotta love an archetypal assassin named Kid Chaos Chronopoulos. With a name like that, the guy could only be a hacker or a sniper; chronos (Greek word for time) is running out for anyone Chaos has in his scope. It's a profession where you're either the best or you're dead.

Cool calm hyper-aware Kid Chaos has one weakness; he goes a little crazy whenever he's around Nikki Alana McKinney, avant-garde artist.

Their meetings are heated, so if you don't like graphic sex scenes, avoid this book or skip those sections. Kid Chaos (given name, Peter, the rock -- another clue to his character) is always packing heat - usually more than one gun - of course, and before too many pages have elapsed, an evil drug lord turns on the heat, pursuing the lovers from Panama to Denver.

Janzen does a good job of narrating the interior emotional landscape of the lovers. It's not a now-he-loves-me-now-he-doesn't kind of story where the reader feels as if obstacles are invented and one is watching an emotional ping-pong match. Chaos and Nikki have serious differences in lifestyle, but Nikki is determined to overcome these and, in the end, Kid Chaos admits he can't live without her.

The idea of a team of crack government operatives who do the government's dirty work and live in Colorado (the Steele Street team) is about as realistic as any of the other clandestine things that come to light in our crazy times.

A subplot is established as Nikki's main model, Travis, meets a former street girl who is turning around her life. The two plots neatly come together in the plot's denouement. One expects these characters will resurface in a romance in their own in the Steel Street series.

The author's deft hand with interior emotional monologues reminds me of the collaboration of Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer. As a team, they capture the Mars-Venus polarities in crisp description and dialogue, as does Janzen in Crazy Kisses.

The writing has two annoying tics. For example, the use of geezus appears to be a catchphrase that identifies Kid Chaos; later, we find other characters using it as well - and rather far too often to be entertaining. One might suggest Janzen vary the vocabulary of anger and frustration a bit more. Another tic is describing longshot situations by substituting close synonyms in the phrase slim-to-none. It is tiresome after the third time.

Place descriptions are journeyman. The plot is predictable, but the fast moving heat between the lovers - both sets - and the heated danger when a drug lord pursues his evil vendetta - add up to an enjoyable read.

This book is amazing because it was finally great to have a book about Kid Chaos (my favorite character out of the whole series). I love his story and the emotional journey he takes to overcome past events from the other books that affected him and changed him. I absolutely recommend this series for anyone who hasn't read it and is looking for a solid, romantic, fast-paced series.
First let me say this book has a good story line, action packed, full of hot looking muscular manly men and beautiful, ecclectic women. But for me it dragged in too many places. It's starts in South America and ends in a seedy drug gang hangout in Denver, CO. Too many of the characters have two names. For me it was confusing and unneccessary. The main characters are Peter "Kid Chaos" Chronopolous and the love of his life Nikki. His job sends him to foreign lands to flush out major drug lords, gather information to provide to the DEA so they can shut the operations down. He struggles to keep his relationship going with Nikki, an artist who is gaining attention of her paintings/photographs of a male model (yes just one model) who is a gorgeous man and she displays him in her work with angel wings. Very strange. Kid goes away on a job and to avenge his brothers death and is gone for 7 months and does not communicate with Nikki at all. She gets mad and begins a relationship with a fiber artist and becomes engaged to him. Kid is shocked and sad and can't wait to get back to Denver so he can show her the two rings he "cradle robbed" from her parents grave in Peru or something like that. In his mind, this will prove how much he loves her and how much he thought of her while he was away and incommunicado. He and his partner are trying to get out of some remote part of the jungle after having gathered some information the DEA will want. They get shot at, Kid is injured and bleeding all over the place and they finally get away and get to hospital where he gets patched up and he leaves the hospital to go to his dead brothers home nearby. He's in pain, has a bullet wound has lost a lot of blood and just wants to sleep and quickly discovers someone is living in the house and yes, it's Nikki. They are so happy to see each other they jump all over each other and get down to business. The first time is outdoors, up against a wall. All I could think was, Really? The author did a fine job describing his injuries and painting a picture of Kid being in excruciating pain, having to have the slug removed and get stitched up. The harrowing escape they made from deep within the jungle with his partner having to practically carry him to safety and he's all gung ho with Nikki? A bit of a stretch in my mind.

I don't mind having to suspend disbelief to some extent but this was too much. Too many parts that drag. Too many characters with double names, double lives, just not my cup of tea.
We first saw this couple together in the first book of the series. It's been building and painfully dragging and finally they're getting their own Act in the Crazy series.

I wish Janzen had explored the whole Nikki engaged to someone else. That she had let them talk to each other, because if you can't spit it out before you get married there's going to be some trials and tribulations that will need to be further explored later but maybe that's her plan.

This was a fast paced, deeply emotional book. Great addition to the series.
WOW!!!! What a ride. What a writer and this action packed sago plot was beyond belief. To say I like this one is mild. It took off at such a pace my heart tripped and I don't think it ever really caught up again.

There was so much action, adverture and so many characters and plot changes and then there was KID CHAOS and his lover NIKKI. What a combo they are. What a heart stopping duo, who together generate enought HEAT and Hands of Trouble than you have ever seen. Which just about says it all. For the entire story was that and more. CHAOS in the extreme followed closely by drug lords, artsy types, and DEA, Drug personnel it was hard to breath though most of it.

What I know is that I really, really like this one and you will too. Buy it, Read it and don't forget to BREATHE, it helps to keep you from passing out cold.
