Summary: Can't wait for the next one!
Review: Here is another great adventure/romance from Suz Brockmann! Those who love her SEAL stories (and those who've never read them) will find this page-turner difficult to put down.

Like her last release, she has more than one story line. In fact, this book involves three stories: Teri and Stan, Annabet and Herschel, and Sam and Alyssa (oh yeah, again!). Teri is a talented, confident helicopter pilot who freezes in the face of men's unwanted advanced. Stan is Mr. Fix-It who finds he can't get Teri out of his mind, yet believes he's not good enough for her. Annabet and Herschel live in Nazi-Era Denmark, and attempt to defy the Nazis and their families to be together. Lastly, Suz revisits Sam Starret, the sexy cowboy-SEAL, and Alyssa Locke, sharpshooter extrordinaire. Their relationship takes some giant steps forward here, but again Suz leaves us yearning for the next chapter. In fact, I felt that this particular Sam/Alyssa cliff-hanger was a bit too unsettling.

Never the less, this book is a great action-packed, romance. Way to go, Suz! Counting down til your Spring release. I'd love to see you write a screenplay!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Buy it, buy it now.
Review: I SO enjoyed this book! I definitely recommend it, but I think you will enjoy it more if you've read Unsung Hero and Defiant Hero first because the main characters have bit parts in this book and it's nice to see what they've been up to. There are a lot of story lines going on in this book but they all weave together nicely. There are NO dull spots in the story and I had a hard time putting it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ms. Brockmann at her best!!
Review: First, please do not judge this book by the reviewer named "One less Fan". If she thinks Suzanne is finished with Alyssa and Sam she is out of her mind. Ms. Brockmann is as much a fan of romance as her readers. I'm positive their story is far from over.

As for "Over the Edge", wow! I started reading this book at 7:00 am this morning and just completed it at 5:00 PM this evening. Absolutely pure, unadulterated joy. I loved this book and I love her testosterone-loaded team of sixteen SEAL troubleshooters. I laughed and cried and reveled in every word. If you are a sucker for action, romance, heroes (male and female) and lots of passion. Choose Suzanne Brockmann, she never disappoints.

A message to Suzanne, I'm not worried about Sam and Alyssa. However, please don't forget Max and Gina. We need a happy ending for these two as well.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Keeps you on the edge of your seat
Review: Ms. Klausner described the book very well in her review. There is not only the romance between Teri Howe and Stan Kolchonek but also a story of a group of people during World War II that is sad and wonderful at the same time.

There is the ongoing romance between Sam Starrett and Alyssa Locke which finally is turning around for the better when Sam is told a girl he had been having a tryst with declares she is pregnant by him and when he returns to the states he makes plans to marry her. Well, that's all well and good, but he swears he also used protection, the protection never broke so how can he accept the baby being his so easily? He doesn't even find out how pregnant she is, i.e. how many months and plans to marry her within a few days. Besides that she is a tramp who hangs out in a low class bar. Give me a break. They are both adults, he is supposedly very intelligent and we are expected to believe he will leave Alyssa behind and marry this tramp? I did not like this at all because it was not something that would happen in the real world today.

I love Ms. Brockmann's books but this part left me cold.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dramatic and Fast paced
Review: Over the Edge is a very dramatic and fast paced read. The author's depth of character development was excellent and from the start I found myself vested in what would ultimately happen to these characters. This is the third installment of Brockmann's Troubleshooters series. Like the previous books, Brockmann manages to skillfully intertwine multiple storylines. However in the past, although I have enjoyed the prior installments, I have not been equally interested in each of the different storylines. Not so with Over the Edge. With Over the Edge, I felt like I was at an amusement park and with each change in storyline I was going on another wonderful ride. I would strongly recommend this novel to readers who like both romance and suspense.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely loved it
Review: I've read all Suzanne Brockmann's books and while I've liked them all, this has to be my favorite. I can't wait until Ms. Brockmanns does Sam and Alyssa's book (which will not be Out of Control). I really wish she would resolve their story sooner rather that later but oh well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another great SEAL adventure
Review: Suzanne Brockmann does it again. This book was great. I loved how the story weaved between the past and the present. Brockmann has done this in the other books in this series and it just keeps me riveted. Just when I think she can't make it better, she outdoes herself. She is a fantastic writer. Stan and Teri was a great story and I liked getting to catch up with the characters from the last two books. I can't wait to see where Brockmann takes the SEALs next and I do hope to see a continuation of the Sam and Locke romance. They could be a book in itself. The twist at the end just broke my heart, but I am hopeful for more. Just a fabulous read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I was hooked from the start !
Review: Suzanne Brockmann has done it again! In my opinion, this is the best so far. Not only do the leading couple (Terri & Stan) get your attention but also all of the other charaters. You come away from this book feeling as if you really do know these people.
As an avid reader I find myself being very critical when a book just doesn't deliver. I have always found Ms. Brockmanns story telling to be very acurate & believable. Great Job. Can't wait for the next one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great addition to a fine series
Review: A great addition to a fine series, Over the Edge holds your attention from beginning to end. Weaving together the life stories of several characters, the novel is suspensful, full of action and touching.

Teri and Stan's story is great, but a warning to those who were (as I was) anxiously awaiting the continuation of the relationship between Sam and Lys - be prepared for a surprise. I now find my self counting down to the NEXT book!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A real disappointment;
Review: One of the main reason I was so excited about this book was to see the outcome or at least the continuing saga of Alyssa and Sam. If ANY two people belonged together its those two. Needless to say, I was not very pleased. Of all the characters Suzanne Brockmann has written about Alyssa and Sam had the most depth. I think the way their relationship ends is almost criminal!!!!
