5.0 out of 5 stars Great start to the series

I started with her doctor series and wanted to see where it all started and J. Saman did not disappoint. Her characters are amazing and I adore the Fritzes and everyone around them. This book had just the right amount of spice, romance, humor, and heartache. She builds a world around these characters that I love getting lost in. I can’t wait to read the next book and get lost all over again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Jonah and Halle
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2024

This was a quick read. It was a sweet romance that had some emotional depth I wasn’t expecting. It also had a little bit of suspense that made the climax that much more intense. Having read the two spin off series that came after The Edge, I noticed several hints about future couples and it has me even more interested to dive into more of this series.

Halle and Jonah meet in a bar and have an instant connection, but neither believe they’re in a place for a relationship and agree on a one night stand. However, after they part ways, they keep running into each other before realizing Halle’s new job is at the health clinic Jonah owns and works at. They both agree they can’t continue with their non-relationship but both struggle with their feelings and seeing each other every day. Jonah is unconvinced he could have room in his heart for a new relationship after losing his wife to cancer two years ago and Halle doesn’t trust her instincts with men because of a string of bad relationships.

Ultimately their no-feelings fling turns into so much more, especially with the threat of danger lurking around Halle. I liked that the suspense with her ex took the place of the typical third act breakup. And I liked how that brought them closer instead of pushing them apart. I defiantly would have liked a bit more of their relationship after they went public, but I thoroughly enjoyed everything about their ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Edge of Temptation- Jonah and Halle
Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2024

Wow. Great read. First book from JS and I can definitively say, I will read more.

Halle is in a no men zone. She has terrible taste in men. The last guy she spent two years with and now the FBI want him. So she has no interest in another relationship anytime soon. But her friends have another plan and want her to get back out there. So pretty much on a dare, she fought a gorgeous guy across the bar, and makes her way over to talk to him.

Jonah’s week is a terrible one, and every year he knows it will be. He lost his wife two years ago, and he seems to just be going through the motions with life. He is stuck in a rut, and he has no idea how to move forward, and doesn’t know if he wants to.

I loved Jonah and Halle together. Their banter and chemistry were fire. Your heart bleeds for Jonah as he battles between his old life and his current one. Both Jonah and Halle needed to find the other person. For different reasons, they were both able to help the other person move forward. It was a beautiful, read, and very entertaining.

Grief isn't something you "get over." Losing someone you love isn't something you "move on" from. But with time, you can move forward. One of the great things about love is that it never ends. This book takes you through that realization for one grieving widower, up to the point where he finds himself falling in love again. A different love with a different woman who understands that grief has a beginning but no end. I really love these characters, including the peripheral ones. Just a great book! Read it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Would have been 5 stars, but...
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2020

I loved this book. The characters were interesting. The plot was interesting. The writing was very good, except for one of my grammatical hangups. This author doesn't know when to use "Jonah and I" vs "Jonah and me". In fact, she consistently gets the two backwards.

Grammar lesson: When you get ready to write "Jonah and me were going out to dinner", stop and take "Jonah and" out of the sentence. Would you say "Me was going out to dinner"? No, you would say "I was going out to dinner". So you should say "Jonah and I...".

Similarly, if you start to say "Mary was going out to dinner with Jonah and I", again, stop and take "Jonah and" out of the sentence. "Mary was going out to dinner with I." Immediately you will see that that is wrong and change it to "Mary was going out to dinner with Jonah and me".

Please do this for me. I will be happy to read more of your books and recommend them if you do.

Halle has broken up with her boyfriend of two years because it wasn't absolutely not working any longer. Right afterwards her ex boyfriend was arrested for hacker crimes on the dark web. He used all the credit card numbers and he tried to take down companies and websites. He got away with it because that's what he did for a living. Halle goes to a bar for girls night out with her girlfriends. They tell her she needs to get out there again. They make a bet with her to hit on a sad looking guy at the bar. So she goes over and starts talking to Jonah. He had lost his wife two years ago and he was just besides himself because of the loss. Jonah is a doctor. They hit it off and they go back to his place to have crazy wild sex! Come to find out she is going to be working for him, she is a nursing assistant. They finally meet again and she finds out the he owns the medical clinic. That's where she has started a new job. As his employee, he can't date Halle. But, stuff happens for them and they start having a hot romance. The more they get involved with each other, they both realize how much they love each! Not to spoil the story for you all... There is more to this story than whatever I have already said about it. The book has so many things happening that I can't even tell you. It's awesome read so enjoy it! Hot! Hot!! And more sparks fly within this story!!! ENJOY!!

I usually thoroughly enjoy Ms Saman’s books, and this was no exception! This book had laughs and heat, and lots of moments that pulled at your heart strings. Along with two main characters that you can’t help but love, who had ridiculous chemistry with each other, and a small gaggle of fun side characters that you want to read more of.

This was a great read and I will definitely be reading the next books in the series!
