Lyra Prescott's acquisition of some old rare books and DVDs
from a garage sale is the beginning of the "run for her
life." As a California film school student, Lyra is doing a
documentary on Paraiso Park, now being used as a dump site,
and her interest is spiked with the beautiful small garden
in the middle. Now she and her roommate, Sidney Buchanan,
are being pursued by dangerous men intent on killing them.
Front and center appears gorgeous FBI Agent Samuel
Wellington assigned by Sidney's brother to protect the
girls. Lyra's heart is set to racing and she's stunned by
this sexy vision with a Scottish brogue who will be glued
to her every move. With screeching tires and dodging
bullets, the race of her life begins as Sam calls in all
favors to keep her alive. Amid car bombs, arson and dead
bodies, Lyra and Sam fall in love, both knowing when this
is over Sam will walk away.
Julie Garwood's latest creation is superb. There's
more action than the heart can take. The story line is most
creative and takes you for a fast thrill ride throughout
the book. The author has woven an imaginative and very
striking story of the underworld of mob activity and
intrigue. If this doesn't keep your heart racing and your
blood boiling, nothing will. Another of her hard-to-put-
down books. Highly recommended!
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.
After she unwittingly captures a shocking crime on camera,
a rash of mysterious, treacherous incidents convince Lyra
that she's trapped in a sinister scenario headed for a
violent ending. 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.
