Description:
A love triangle just wouldn't suffice; Jillian Stone had the 'misfortune' of getting herself into a love square-- with twins, nonetheless.
Alexander, Oliver, and Jillian were raised on a deserted island. For 12 years, all they knew were those that were marooned with them. A strong bond would link them forever. At 12 years old, they are all rescued and clairvoyant Jillian is immediately shipped off to boarding school. Ten years later, she is reunited with her twins at the funeral of Helen, the woman who “mothered” them while on the island. The innocent and childhood feelings they shared on the island...well, they aren’t so innocent anymore. Her scrawny gangly twins are now grown men. Oliver, the ever-loyal friend and Alexander the ultimate bad-boy, have her heart in a tug-a-war.
Enter, mysteriously sexy Professor Paul Black. He’s Jillian’s law school professor and she has caught his attention, albeit inappropriate. All the while, Jillian’s clairvoyance is wreaking havoc on her life as visions of a redheaded man are becoming all consuming. The dangerous man in her visions is searching for her and has a big secret to share with her about her time on the island as well as about her psychic abilities. Scared for her life, all three men try to protect her, but she must chose one in order to focus on the problem at hand—the redheaded man’s secret.
Seeing Red is a romance with some paranormal elements and some suspense and a lot of sexual tension.
Facts about Seeing Red
by Sidney Halston
* Onion Island is based on a real island off the Maldives. Onions actually grow on the island. It is mostly deserted.
* My (author) favorite character is actually Heather and I’d love to write a spin-off on her character.
* Although twins run in my family—Alexander and Oliver’s characters are not based on any of them.
*
Since twins run in my family, I wanted to explore the twin dynamic in
terms of romance and the woman’s perspective. They are so similar yet so
different. Could a woman see that without taking the physical
similarity into account? That’s why I used twins.
* The first day of law school was loosely based on my first day of law school. Without the hot professor, of course.
* The idea of having it be on an island was inspired by Tracey Garvis-Graves’s On the Island.
*
Seeing Red is nothing, absolutely nothing like the TV show Lost nor are
there any similarities with the TV show. (I get asked this a lot!)
* You will see a lot more of the Professor Paul Black in the second book.
* Jillian gets her psychic ability from her father, Rocco.
* ROTA Island stands for Rocco Taylor.
And that’s exactly what she did. After working hard as an attorney, Sidney picked up a pen for the first time at thirty years old to begin her dream of writing. Having never written anything other than very exciting legal briefs, she found an outlet for her imaginative romantic side and wrote Seeing Red.That first pen stroke sealed the deal, and she fell in love with writing.
Sidney lives in South Florida with her husband and children. She loves her family above all else, and reading follows a close second. When she’s not writing you can find her reading and reading and reading. She’s a reader first and a writer second.
When she’s not writing or reading, her life is complete and utter chaos, trying to balance family life with work and writing (and reading). But she wouldn’t have it any other way.
