I didn't write a review for the 2nd book because I immediately started reading the 3rd book and just didn't take the time.I've given all three of these books 5 stars. The story sucks you in and the characters are very well developed and there is never a dull moment. I just had to keep reading! Which is what good books should do! (And I'll try to write this with no big spoilers)I must admit that I wasn't sure if I liked Sean that much, he screwed up a lot in the first book and screwed up in a ginormous way in the 2nd book. I did feel sorry for him but felt he deserved all he went through by being so stupid. Sorry, but I do feel that way, he did have inner thoughts of being happy seeing his engagement ring on Penelope in the 2nd book so I don't feel he was completely trapped miserably with her because of her pregnancy. So all the pain he felt after realizing he made a mistake and realizing he was duped and stupid, he deserved it. Yes I'm mean lolEdge of love, near the end finally had me liking him more even though he was an a-hole in this one several times. Yeah, he was an a** when Scarlet was being unreasonable, but come on, after all she went through with him, for him and did for him, I just felt he could have been more understanding and have had more patience with her over their wedding plans and her feelings towards his mother. I mean honestly, a real woman wouldn't appreciate hearing her future mom in law talking to the ex on the phone or hearing her say that she thought she was a rebound or the rude way his mother kept bringing up Penelope. No woman would I don't think. Unless she was a saint!Sean was an a-hole again I thought and over reacted to Scar being alone with his brother at the beginning of the book. I mean he blew up and said some awful mean sh** to her. He didn't even let her explain.Lastly, Sean finally discovers a big Secret about Scar and Cortland, that they slept together in the first book. And boy does he get mad! He packs Scarlet's crap and makes her move in with Ryan. He did some pretty respectful things though during this time. He could have acted much worse but he handled himself well and took Scarlet's feelings into consideration after the initial shock wore off so I finally grew to respect him and finally start to really believe he truly loved her more than Penelope. (I must say I'm pretty sick of hearing about her) And near the end he started to find his inner Alpha male and was becoming more dominate even in their bed. Loved that!!! I think his conflicting feelings which ran soooooo long for Scarlet and Penelope turned me against him a lot. But by the end of this book I no longer felt he was hung up on the ex. Thank God.There's a fourth book, and I'll read it to see the conclusion to this story. I LOVED the first book, really liked the 2nd and enjoyed the 3rd but I'm just not crazy about Sean. He's just not book boyfriend material for me personally. I didn't subtract from the amount of stars for these books for that because they are written extremely well! Fast paced. Lots of dialogue. I'm lost in this story while reading it... But I just don't like the Hero so much. But maybe I will after the 4th book if he continues to become more confident and assured in his love for Scarlet as this book was taking us there.
