Whether it's exhilarating historical romance or spine-tingling contemporary suspense, number one New York Times best-selling author Julie Garwood weaves magnificent stories of passion, adventure, and intrigue. Now she raises the heat and spices up the action with a sexy, smart, daring new heroine and a smoldering thriller that's classic Garwood - and pure sizzle.

Lyra Prescott, a Los Angeles film student, is closing in on graduation and facing important decisions about her future. She's already been offered a job at her hometown TV station, an opportunity that could ultimately launch her dream career as a film editor. But heading back home would also mean dealing with her overprotective brothers, social-climbing mother, and eccentric grandmother. Unsure of her future, Lyra dives into work on her final school assignment: A documentary transformed by a twist of fate into a real-life horror film.

Running scared, she turns to her best friend, Sidney Buchanan, whose connections bring dauntless and devilishly handsome FBI agent Sam Kincaid into Lyra's life.

As the noose of deadly intrigue tightens and the feelings between them deepen, Lyra and Sam must place their faith in each other's hands - and stand together against the malevolent forces about to break loose. No one mixes life-and-death suspense with feverish desire better than Julie Garwood. In Sizzle she burns hotter and brighter than ever, keeping the action and passion blazing till the incredible, unforgettable end.

Good listen!

I have always enjoyed Julie Garwood books and she still keeps me interested from the first page.

Really good book

I love Julie Garwood her stories have great humor and mystery. I love the characters.

Lovely romance

I’ve read this book twice and enjoyed the narration. Susan’s accents were spot on. I plan to listen to this audio book again.

Loved It

I thought this book was one of her best. The characters were well developed and the plot was interesting. Best of all, it was funny. As outrageous as some of the characters were, you still rooted for them and wished you could meet them in person.

thrilled

Suspense, laughter and romance bundled up in a very nice package. Susan Denaker did a great job with the narration, and brought the characters to life.

Another great story!

Another great story from Julie Garwood. The audio performance was really good! Can't wait for the next book in the series!

Julie Garwood doesn’t disappoint

Great story with equal amount humor and suspense. Loved the story. Easy to listen to

Julie Garwood rocks

Another romantic suspense story with the difference being the main characters are basically normal happy people going through a difficult time because of a problem they stumbled into. She’s beautiful, talented and hard working and rich. He’s handsome, speaks with a fun accent, talented, and masculine. It has lots of vicarious enjoyment!

Garwood entertains

Whether it’s Middle Ages romance or modern Los Angeles, Julie Garwood delivers dependable romance, heroes, strong-willed women and nefarious villains.

Denaker gives us very listenable characters and accents and moves the story along.

One word....Boring

I normally enjoy Julie Garwood but I found this story incredibly boring. The main character Lyra is a film student and the continued description of her work and the “importance” of her day to day activities wore on me. I found it monotonous.

Do not waste a credit.
