Description
When a tabloid exposes her personal life, a bestselling author reconnects with a man from her past to unearth the secrets behind her sister's murder.
Bellamy Lyston was only twelve years old when her older sister Susan was killed on a stormy Memorial Day. Bellamy's fear of storms is a legacy of the tornado that destroyed the crime scene along with her memory of what really happened during the day's most devastating moments.
Now, eighteen years later, Bellamy has written a sensational bestselling novel based on Susan's murder, published under a pseudonym to protect her family from unwanted publicity. But when an opportunistic tabloid reporter discovers that the book is based on fact, Bellamy's identity is exposed along with the family scandal . . . and she becomes the target of a vengeful assailant.
In order to identify her stalker, Bellamy must confront the ghosts of her past, including Susan's wayward and reckless boyfriend, Dent Carter. Dent is intent on clearing his name, and he needs Bellamy's help to do it. But her dangerous memories -- once unlocked -- could put both of their lives in peril.
Determined to learn the truth, Bellamy won't stop until she finds Susan's killer. That is, unless the killer strikes first . . .

5By Montanafilly73What an awesome book. Well developed characters and a solid storyline. When you think you can figure it out, it pivots. I am glad it turned out like it did with Bellamy and Dent. First time reading a book from this author and I was very pleased!Suspenseful
5By LsnupIt was a really good read, kept you wondering who done it. At first I thought it was the stepbrother but then I suspected the Mom. I knew the police had screwed up. I was happy she found some peace in the end considering the losses in her life.Low Pressure
5By nannieboWith a host of suspects in the killing of a prominent young woman, introduction of the complex family and the loner bad guy, plots take unexpected twists and turns. Mix in a hot romance and Brown has a winner of a book.Ok

3By awesome1 23I found the preview of this book to be very interesting, however when I read the book I felt nearly the opposite. The plot did not progress as quickly as I had presumed which led me to read slower and be bored with the book. Once the plot started picking up, things got interesting and the book ended really well, but it definitely could be shorter.Great book!!!

1By gohogsgo8As a reader of all of Sandra Brown's books, I have to say that I was disappointed in this one. It was difficult to get into and as I plugged away, it didn't really improve. Her other books are definitely worth reading though.Highly Entertaining!
4By 2boys2manyLow Pressure is a highly entertaining, suspenseful novel that will having you guessing until the very end! Sandra Brown has created a fantastic set of likable characters in this newest novel. Unpretentious rich girl Bellamy has repressed childhood memories of the day her sister was murdered. She's written a novel, Low Pressure, in an effort to bring those memories to the forefront and bring the suspicion she has that the wrong man was accused and found guilty of the murder. She teams up with her sister's then boyfriend, Dent, an airplane pilot and self-proclaimed bad boy, to solve the mystery that still surrounds her sister's death. There are many twists and turns during Bellamy and Dent's investigation. Bellamy has to face some nasty truths about her sister and by digging up the past she's put both her and Dent's lives in danger from quite a few shady characters. Many chapters end with a cliff hanging sentence which made me not want to put the book down. I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen in the next chapter. There's a nice steamy love scene in this one which does not disappoint. For me the best thing about this book was I had no idea who the real murderer was. I knew who I thought didn't do it but didn't figure out who did until it was disclosed in the book...a very rare thing. One request from the author...I want to read Bellamy's Low Pressure!
