Suspense I enjoyed the writing but wow, where was the story? - I persisted through 2/12 - not much I admit - but I detected such a minimal story - TV report, Kerra, trying to get an interview with a reclusive - by appealing to a private detective, Trapper, who is also the estranged son of the reclusive - tantalising, but it wasn't enough. Another great romantic suspense from Sandra Brown. The mystery was interesting and I liked both the hero and the heroine. Even though like in most romantic suspense novels the romance happens pretty quickly I didn't feel overwhelmed with the insta love. There seemed to be plenty of time for a relationship to develop considering they spent most of the book together. Plus at the end there was a breathing space to consider the relationship and it seemed totally natural that they would choose to be together. The mystery was well written and several very good red herrings were thrown out so that I had a fun time trying to guess who the bad guy was. Can't wait for next years romantic suspense offering from Ms. Brown. Sandra Brown delivers another successful thriller in Seeing Red. True to fashion, this suspenseful book has her trademark plot twists; I wasn't sure who to trust, or what was coming next. Her plots are always well constructed, and this one does not disappoint. I've long been a fan of her writing style, as she brings together a great mix of tension offset by humor/sarcasm. I love it! The characters are well written, and the chemistry between Kerra and Trapper is palpable - despite the fact that Trapper is basically a macho pain in the ass. Speaking of chemistry - I have to make note that their interactions lean more to "steamy" than to "romance" - hence my macho ass comment. But the surly, snarky Trapper grew on me as I worked to figure out how he played into the whole thing - because she had me second guessing HIS motives and involvement as the story hurtled on. Kerra's character was sympathetic, brave and interesting, and I had to wonder what was with her infatuation with Trapper. Ultimately, this is a suspenseful thriller, and Sandra Brown nails it with Seeing Red. This book is an epic roller coaster ride. Thanks to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for providing me with an advance copy of the book. All opinions are my own. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Kerra Bailey is a TV journalist hot on the trail of a story guaranteed to skyrocket her career to new heights. Twenty-five years ago, Major Franklin Trapper became a national icon when he was photographed leading a handful of survivors to safety after the bombing of a Dallas hotel. For years, he gave frequent speeches and interviews but then suddenly dropped out of the public eye, shunning all media. Now Kerra is willing to use any means necessary to get an exclusive with the Major--even if she has to secure an introduction from his estranged son, former ATF agent John Trapper. Still seething over his break with both the ATF and his father, Trapper wants no association with the bombing or the Major. Yet Kerra's hints that there's more to the story rouse Trapper's interest despite himself. And when the interview goes catastrophically awry--with unknown assailants targeting not only the Major, but also Kerra--Trapper realizes he needs her under wraps if he's going to track down the gunmen . . . and finally discover who was responsible for the Dallas bombing.Kerra is wary of a man so charming one moment and dangerous the next, and she knows Trapper is withholding evidence from his ATF investigation into the bombing. But having no one else to trust and enemies lurking closer than they know, Kerra and Trapper join forces to expose a sinuous network of lies and conspiracy--and uncover who would want a national hero dead.
