sateem326 's review for:
Seeing Red
by Sandra Brown
Do I even need to write a review for this?
I mean, It's a Sandra Brown book. Isn't that a review in and of itself?!
This one here checks all the boxes of your typical SB book:
☑ A woman, just going about, living her life, then all of the sudden finds herself thrust in the middle of a shit storm, where she has to be constantly looking over her shoulder and be aware of everyone around her.
☑ A handsome, suspicious, short-tempered asshole man, whom no one seems to trust, that our lady gets infatuated with despite him being a major Jerkface.
☑ Not a single character is to be trusted. You never know who is gonna jump out of fucken nowhere to do some backstabbing business.
☑ Plot twists coming at you out of the left field.
☑ Overall and everything considered; an awesome read.
The reason this didn't get a full 5 stars was that in comparison to her other books, this wasn't as good. It wasn't bad by any means, but it wasn't up to par as to what I've come to expect from SB books.
As per usual, with SB you can't really pinpoint the real bad people until the very end. You pretty much suspect every single character at one point or another..
Hey.. you think this person is bad.. well, guess again!
Having said that, at no point throughout the whole book, did I suspect Trapper of being a bad guy. Yes, he was an asshole - as all the main guys in SB books are - but that was all.
In all of my favorite Sandra Brown's books, with Chill Factor at the top, I had to second guess myself about the main characters multiple times. I'd suspect them, then I'd think, no way! Then I'll suspect them again, then I'd find a way to justify their actions.. and so on and so forth. Not the case here.
That being said, I still very much enjoyed this read and I look forward to my next SB book.

P.S: We - as readers - also fall in love with this Jerkface <3
