Typical Sandra Brown thriller - sexy woman meets tough guy. They instantly have sparks, but something prevents them from being together, e.g. stubbornness, pride. This novel is about a reporter, Kerra Bailey (sexy woman), trying for an interview with Major Franklin Trapper. He continually denies her requests, so she tries to get through to The Major via his son, John Trapper (tough guy). It seems that The Major rescued Kerra from a hotel bombing 25 years earlier, and she plans to disclose that during the interview. However, after the interview is over, someone tries to kill both Kerra and The Major. There is a complicated backstory on how this attempt is tied to the bombing of the hotel all those years ago.
I am getting weary of the same basic storyline from these novels.

4.5 stars. Very good. Liked the pacing. Didn't figure out the ending completely, but I got some of it. This is my first time reading this author and I see what all the fuss is about. She's fantastic. I plan to read more by her.
From the queen of romantic suspense, Sandra Brown returns following, (2016) Sting, (2015) Friction, making my 2015 Top 50 Books, and (2014) Mean Streak with “prime” movie-worthy SEEING RED.
From the Pegasus Hotel in downtown Dallas, a 1992 historic event killing hundreds twenty-five years ago, to the present.
Kerra Bailey is a hungry TV journalist. She wants an interview with the legendary Major Franklin Trapper.
After all, he was a hero of the bombing of the Hotel. The 25th Anniversary of the event, Kerra is determined to land the story.
The Major became a national hero after an award-winning picture was captured of him rescuing a group of people, including an innocent 5-year-old little girl, in the aftermath of a hotel bombing.
Kerra’s life was spared. She was the little girl which is now revealed. Why is he a recluse now, after being famous for so long? Why problems between father and son?
Everyone has secrets and motives . . .
She must go through his estranged son, former ATF agent John Trapper. John wants no part of the Major.
What were the motives behind Major's heroism?
Enter a tension-filled relationship between John and Kerra. (of course, who does romantic tension) better than Brown?
Will Kerra (beautiful and savvy) and Trapper (rough, hot, sexy) wind up joining forces and risk their lives in order to expose a conspiracy and uncover the murderer of Major Trapper?
From tension, murder, conspiracy, crimes, danger, betrayal, deceit, and lots of sizzle –Brown delivers another edgy twisty mystery suspense thriller, combined with hot romantic suspense and humor.
SEEING RED will continue to keep Brown fans satisfied and longing for a movie. We can only imagine the cast of stars playing out on the big screen. I also purchased the audiobook narrated by Victor Slezak for an entertaining performance.
A special thank you to Grand Central and NetGalley for an early reading copy.

This was a riveting book. It had a captivating plot line and subplots that kept me reading!
Good start to my 2018 challenge. Well paced thriller. Easy to figure out but still kept me guessing some things until the end.
4.5 Stars
This was my very first Sandra Brown novel! 😱 I can't believe it either, but it definitely won't be my last! Seeing Red revolves around an attempted murder, but it is so much more than that... it's a conspiracy, it's twisty, it's sexy, it's suspenseful... and it's highly addictive.
Brown wrote it in a way that every chapter left you questioning... It made you wonder if you knew what was happening, who was really doing what, were you right or oh so wrong?!?! The characters were questionable at all times... their motives, their actions, were they telling truths or lies, and the banter between the two main characters was spot on and kept you wanting more. The plot was always twisting and it kept me on my toes... I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of this book.
I really loved that even though it kept me guessing, this is an action/suspense novel with a bit of romance tucked into it and not a psychological thriller for a change. I'm not sure that I've ever read anything quite like it before. It was a nice break.
