What would you do if you lost five years of freedom? If everything you'd ever known was torn away from you, all because the one person you counted on to save you didn't come through?

This became my reality when I was convicted at age nineteen for the murder of my father. Now twenty-five and eight months out of prison, I have nothing to my name except a crummy apartment and the horrifying memories that keep me locked in my past.

Then I meet Silo Winters, a man so much like me, yet so different that it drives me crazy. How could someone who went through the same hell I did in prison still look at life so cheerfully? I've never been able to let go of the past as effortlessly as he can, but when he's with me I start to believe that maybe, just maybe, I might have the strength to try.

Seeing Red is a slow-burn, grumpy/sunshine story of two ex-convicts helping each other find their footing-and so much more-in life after years in lockup. The story was originally published in 2013 and has had sections rewritten, but remains largely the same.
