The Blurb:
When Scarlet realized Penelope was dumping Sean, her best friend, she was devastated. Penelope was the love of his life, the woman of his dreams. Scarlet knew how far her best friend was going to fall and she had to catch him. Scarlet became Sean’s rock and helped him through a very painful breakup, but her own hidden desires bubbled to the surface in the process. When they finally gave in and slept together, she thought it was the start of their new relationship. Unfortunately, Sean didn’t feel the same.
Humiliated and heartbroken, Scarlet moved across the country and found what she least expected. She rekindled her damaged relationship with her brother, who she hadn’t spoken to in a year, and her brother’s best friend was attractive and interesting. Their relationship was natural and unforced, and she was immediately drawn to him. Would she be able to get over Sean, forget about him, by sleeping with Cortland, or would that just be another repeated mistake?
My Thoughts:
It wasn't a bad book, it was okay. The story line need a little more. There was a lot of back and forth between the characters that I didn't really like and the characters were too over dramatized for my taste. The characters also felt a bit too shallow. I felt Scarlet had some underlying emotional and family issues that was never really brought but I felt like I was suppose to know. I never really understood the thing with her brother; like why she hadn't been in contact with him for months and then just unexpectedly shows up on his doorstep.
The novel itself felt a little rushed, time passed by way two quick one minute Scarlet's friends with Sean and then the next she's emotionally damaged and on the first flight out to her brother.
My Rating: 2.5/5
