Meet the Author

Sandra Brown
Sandra Brown

Sandra Brown is the author of numerous New York Times bestsellers - including most recently Smash Cut, Smoke Screen, Play Dirty, Ricochet, Chill Factor, White Hot, Hello, Darkness, The Crush, and Envy. She is the recipient of the 2008 Thriller Master Award from International Thriller Writers, Inc. She and her husband live in Arlington, Texas.

Biography

In 1979, Sandra Brown lost her job at a television program and decided to give writing a try. She bought an armful of romance novels and writing books, set up a typewriter on a card table and wrote her first novel. Harlequin passed but Dell bit, and Brown was off and writing, publishing her works under an assortment of pseudonyms.

From such modest beginnings, Brown has evolved into multimillion publishing empire of one, the CEO of her own literary brand; she towers over the landscape of romantic fiction. Brown has used her growing clout to insist her publishers drop the bosom-and-biceps covers and has added more intricate subplots, suspense, and even unhappy endings to her work. The result: A near-constant presence on The New York Times bestsellers list. In 1992, she had three on the list at the same time, joining that exclusive club of Stephen King, Tom Clancy, J. K. Rowling, and Danielle Steel.

Her work in the mainstream realm has taken her readers into The White House, where the president's newborn dies mysteriously; the oil fields and bedrooms of a Dallas-like family dynasty; and the sexual complications surrounding an investigation into an evangelist's murder. Such inventions have made her a distinct presence in a crowded genre.

"Brown is perhaps best known now for her longer novels of romantic suspense. The basic outline for these stories has passionate love, lust, and violence playing out against a background of unraveling secrets and skeletons jumping out of family closets," wrote Barbara E. Kemp in the book Twentieth-Century Romance & Historical Writers . Kemp also praises Brown's sharp dialogue and richly detailed characters. "However, her greatest key to success is probably that she invites her readers into a fantasy world of passion, intrigue, and danger," she wrote. "They too can face the moral and emotional dilemmas of the heroine, safe in the knowledge that justice and love will prevail."

Critics give her points for nimble storytelling but are cooler to her "serviceable prose," in the words of one Publishers Weekly reviewer. Still, when writing a crack page-turner, the plot's the thing. A 1992 New York Times review placed Brown among a group of a writers "who have mastered the art of the slow tease."

Staggeringly prolific, Brown found her writing pace ground to a halt when she was given a different assignment. A magazine had asked her for an autobiographical piece, and it took her months to complete. Her life in the suburbs, though personally fulfilling, was nonetheless blander than fiction. That may be why she dives into her fiction writing with such workhorse gusto. "I love being the bad guy," she told Publishers Weekly in 1995, "simply because I was always so responsible, so predictable growing up. I made straight A's and never got into any trouble, and I still impose those standards on myself. So writing is my chance to escape and become the sleaziest, scummiest role."

When she started writing, her goal was always to break out of the parameters of romance. After about 45 romances, the woman who counts Tennessee Williams and Taylor Caldwell among her influences told The New York Times that felt she had reached a plateau. In fact, she doesn't even look at her books as romances anymore. "I think of my books now as suspense novels, usually with a love story incorporated," she said. "They're absolutely a lot harder to write than romances. They take more plotting and real character development. Each book is a stretch for me, and I try something interesting each time that males will like as well as women."

Good To Know

  • "I hate to exercise and only do so because I absolutely must."

  • "I love to eat and my favorite foods are all bad for the body. Fried chicken and gravy, TexMex, red meat (hey, I'm from Texas!). My only saving grace is that I'm not that fond of sweets. Salty is my thing. Chocolate cake and ice cream I can skip. But a bag of Fritos. . ."

  • "It takes me a long time to go to sleep, usually because I read in bed and hate to put down the book. But when I do nod off, I'm a champion sleeper. I can easily do eight or nine hours a night."

  • "My worst "thing" is mean-spirited people. People who deliberately belittle or embarrass someone really irk me. The people I admire most are the ones who find something good about even the most undesirable individual. That was a quality my mother had, the one I hope most to emulate."

  • "I have a fear of gravity. Recently my whole family went to Belize. We had several adventures. We tubed a river through miles of cave, wearing head lamps so we'd have illumination. No problem. I scaled Mayan ruins. I rode horseback (on a monster named Al Capone) through the rain forest. No problem. But I couldn't zip line. Even though my five-year-old grandsons did it with glee, I just couldn't make that leap."

  • "I and my husband are huge fans of Jeopardy! We never miss it if we can help it. Does that make us complete dorks?"

      An enjoyable Read

      Kari was a little tedious at times, and Hunter a little over romantic, but it all worked out.

      Book was great, translation to Nook edition poor

      Loved the book. Sandra Brown is awesome. Unfortunately, for the first time ever, though the Nook edition contained many word errors. Some were obviously wrong words, but the correct word could be inferred (several times the main characters name was wrong). Other times, the errors were just random letters and you had to guess what the correct word was. Pretty disappointing.

      A huge disappointment!

      Sandra Brown is my favorite author....but this was the worst book she's ever written. I bought the ebook...there are so many typos it's hard to read. The main character's name was Kari...or sometimes Karl, Mari or even Can. There were several times I had to read the sentence twice in order to understand it.

      Kari's husband dies in a questionable accident, but the storyline never questions it. He and his partners were dirty councilmen, brought up on charges, but the story never explained the extent of the crimes. It gives the who and where but never told you the how or why.

      And the love affair was a little disturbing. The man stalks her! Breaks into her house and waits for her to come home...dismantled the security system. Why doesn't that bother anyone? Or, him leaning on a fire hydrant outside her house waiting for her to wake up. Creepy!! NOT Romantic.

      I usually love Sandra Brown books....but this was a huge disappointment.

      Sweet Anger by Sandra Brown Carly works at the local TV station

      Sweet Anger by Sandra Brown
      Carly works at the local TV station and is a personality on live TV. She's just lost her husband to a truck hitting him.
      She learns she is pregnant and she wants Thomas's children to have the house that is rightly theirs. She can continue to work and a new district attorney, Hunter McKey has come into town telling her that her husband was to be tried for stealing money from accounts.
      She searches her house top and bottom to find something that will credit her husband as having nothing to do with the allegations.
      She comes to awareness where she's on the couch in a room off the courtroom and she has her hands around his neck wanting more kisses until she realizes that it's Hunter, not Tom at all.
      She had suffered a miscarriage just 3 days prior to the trial and the doctor now ordered her to bed rest.
      After 5 months she was back at work feeling renewed.
      She got the job of being the breaking news reporter-giving up her entertainment position. She would be up against Hunter in court, following his every move and she hopes to gain the information she needs to set him in his place.
      Hunter fantasizes about being with her and she just can't help herself with wanting to be loved.
      She gets suspended for 3 months and takes off for parts unknown.
      He attempts to find her by hounding her boss to no avail. He's going out of his mind with the loss of her.
      Things heat up and become steamy when he does find her....
      New work detail, his ex spouse and Carly shows up unexpectedly...

      "Sweet" love story!

      Sweet Anger was a sweet love story with lots of sex scenes! Sometimes Sandra Browns old books are more sex than story. This seemed to be a better balance, but I LOVE her mysteries better than her love stories! I bought this because it was cheap and I enjoyed it. It's a read in a day or two kind of book!

      This was unexpected...

      This story is different from the ones i usually read from Sandra Brown. It was sickly romantic in it that the leading characters are in a love-hate scenario. It's a great book. I really didn't expect such sentiment and sappy love scenes but they are sappy in the most endearing way. Keep churning theses page turners! That's all i have to say.
