Book Review - Seeing Red by Holley Trent




My Thoughts

Meg was so tired of everyone feeling sorry for her after her very public divorce from her rock star ex. Her friends come up with a plan for her to marry Seth to take the focus off of it. Seth is part of her group of friends, but is quiet man who has feelings for her that he has kept to himself. Meg and Seth grow close and Seth bonds with her son as well. Meg really doesn't know how to handle Seth. You see he is a nice guy. He is sweet and kind and thoughtful. He treats her so well and she just isn't used to that and doesn't trust it. So of course she pushes him away repeatedly, but he sticks. He doesn't give up and stays and it changes everything.

I give Seeing Red 4 hearts!



About the Book

She married him to save face, but will it be at her heart’s expense?

Megan Coffman needs to put her divorce from one of rock and roll’s biggest womanizers behind her—fast. Dubbed “Poor Meg” by the music media, she’s sick of being pitied and thinks the best way to show the public she’s moved on is to flash her brand new engagement ring. But now she needs a man and a wedding to go with it...

Thirty-five year old Russian expatriate Seth “Red” Rozhkov likes the idea of an instant family and agrees to play husband for a year for a virtual stranger. Women just want him for one thing anyway, and it’s not happily-ever-after. A mutual friend swears if Red plays his cards right, he could have Meg for keeps. He’s willing to try.

Meg finds Red an enigma. He’s a gentle giant, solicitous almost to a fault—and the no-strings-attached sex is amazing, but she’s used to being used. What’s Red getting out of the deal? How can she trust a man who hasn’t asked her for anything in return?



About the Author

Holley Trent is a Carolina girl gone west. Raised in rural coastal North Carolina, she's a lady with Southern sensibilities, but in 2011 her adventurous spirit drove her to Colorado for new experiences.

She writes sassy, sexy contemporary romances and paranormal romances set in her home state.

Her protagonists regularly fall victim to her odd sense of humor and find themselves in improbable situations (with happily-every-after outcomes). Holley's cast of characters tends to swear, drink and do a fair amount of carousing, but they're generally well-intentioned and obey all laws and ordinances.

Usually.

In addition to her self-published Natural Beauty, Shrew & Company, and Den of Sin series, she has work available from Musa Publishing, Crimson Romance, and Lyrical Press.
