Publisher's summary

New York book editor Maris Matherly-Reed knows a best seller when she sees one - even if it is just a tantalizing partial manuscript submitted by a writer identified only as P.M.E., with the return address of an obscure island off the Georgia coast. Maris is intrigued enough to search for him.

Her trip to Georgia to meet the mysterious author takes her to an eerie, ruined cotton plantation, where Maris finds Parker Evans, a man confined to a wheelchair who carefully hides his past. Coaxing his novel from him chaper by chapter, Maris becomes caught up in his tale of two friends who rent a boat with a young woman for a night of sex and drinking. Only one person will return from that trip.

Disturbed about her sexual attraction to Parker and worried about her marriage to author and her co-publisher Noah Reed, Maris returns to New York, where the delivery of Parker's newest chapters convince her they are more than fiction. She wonders how well she knows her husband and begins a harrowing search for a truth that ties back to a terrifying crime and a man who will use her, or anyone, to get his revenge.

Loved it!

This book had me interested from beginning to end! I loved the characters and the plot twists the author had. There were also some pretty steamy scenes! Thoroughly enjoyed this book! Will definitely read more Sandra Brown books!

A great story!

This is an engaging, entertaining, somewhat addictive listen. The story is well done with enough unexpected twists to keep it interesting.

Wow! Sandra Brown at her best!

Envy is the best romantic mystery I have read! I was so enthralled I couldn't stop listening. You will love the rich descriptive tale that draws you into the book as an active participant who witnesses this superbly twisted plot that brings total satisfaction at the end. The narrator is perfect for this story. One of the most enjoyable listens ever. Slezak nailed it!

Hated reaching my destination!

Any additional comments?

I am not a Sandra Brown fan and hadn't read anything by her for years. I'm rethinking that. I loved this book and listened to it in the car, Usually I'm glad to get to where I'm going but I found myself sitting in parking lots just a little longer, I didn't want to leave the story. I think men would enjoy this story as well, it's more than a romance. The narrator was excellent. I will certainly consider any books done by him.

Incredible Book

This was the second book I listened to when just getting hooked on audio books. It is still my favorite of any that I've read or listened too. It will keep you guessing!

Has it all

If you’re struggling to pick a genre or looking for something different from your usual, look no further. This one has it all and won’t disappoint. Well written, performed, and edited. Great story but not for tender ears or prudes. It’s got mystery, drama, love, sex, action, and revenge.
