Product Description
After a demanding book tour, superstar mystery novelist Grace McCabe decides to visit her sister, Kathleen, who’s embroiled in a custody battle after a bitter divorce. Arriving in D.C., Grace is shocked to find Kathleen living in a run-down neighborhood and, hoping to afford a hotshot lawyer, supplementing her meager teacher’s salary by moonlighting as a phone sex operator.
According to Kathleen, Fantasy, Inc., guarantees its employees ironclad anonymity. But Grace has her doubts—which are confirmed one horrifying cherry-blossom-scented night when one of Fantasy, Inc.’s operators is murdered. As Grace is drawn to help solve the crime, her life turns into a scene from one of her own books. Yet as one of her biggest fans, investigator Ed Jackson, warns her: This isn’t fiction. Real people die—and Grace could be next. For she’s setting a trap for a killer more twisted than anything she could imagine. And not even Ed may be able to protect her from a rendezvous with lust and death.

Format:Hardcover
This one certainly has it all... murders, humour, relationships and even house renovation! Only someone with the calibre of Ms Roberts could pack all this in and pull it off in roughly 250 pages. If the first murder has'nt gripped you and got you turning the page, the central characters Grace and Ed will. An excellent follow on to "Sacred Sins".

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Her books are my favourite! Never a dull moment in her plots.Her characters are funny and exciting! Although this one is very similar to Sacred Sins, but both are really good! I hope she'll write more romantic-suspense, but they'll never be in time for me!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Ms. Roberts writes absorbing, intriguing romance novels. In Brazen Virtue, the heroine is a murder mystery writer and the hero is a homicide detective. Unfortunately, blossoming love is interrupted (or is it enhanced) by the murder of the heroine's sister. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, as I have all of Ms. Roberts' books, but there were a few opportunities for development that were missed. For example, when the hero discovers that the heroine has an astronomical income in comparison to his, only three paragraphs or so are devoted to their discussion. I think with most relationships, that would have been a huge point of conflict and could have been discussed more thoroughly. Overall, though, this novel is very entertaining and well worth reading.

Nora Roberts is a reader's dream!!!
"Brazen Virtue" was a great "love-mystery" mini-novel. I am used to reading Nora's romance stories, so this one threw me a bit. It was wonderful nonetheless. Read more

I couldn't put the book down. I was totally absorbed in it.
I thought the book was fantastic. But, what Nora Robert's novel isn't. The first book I read of hers was "True Betrayals", and after that I just kept buying more and... Read more
