Review: For Her Benefit - Nana Malone

Review: For Her Benefit - Book #3 See No Evil Trilogy - Nana Malone - August 2020I have to admit I am in two minds about this particular book as being Book #3 in a Trilogy, as a reader you expect it to answer your questions and have a rounded conclusion but for some of my questions, I still felt like I had been left with them unanswered and a little disappointed. I did however love the heists part and planning that took place in the novel as the team from Winston Isles banded together as you got that sense of family, belonging, and teamwork and though they were planning thievery, you felt like they were the good guys and not criminals. The Director Prime angle of the novel, I expected as you could see that in the end, it was going to play out that way right through the whole series. Now to the parts that frustrated me - mainly the mystery surrounding Caroline and her disappearance. Right through the whole trilogy, there has been a danger aspect to this story and Olivia has been targeted to stop the novel. We did catch a glimpse of how both Olivia's story and the Elites were connected but I still was hoping that we would have a conclusion to Caroline's disappearance as it seems more in Book #3 that Caroline was glanced over and the other females involved were focused on more. Another thing that has me on the fence was the ending of the See No Evil Trilogy as it ends on a major cliffhanger which will be the focus of the next series by Nana Malone -I assume. In a way, I don't think that this needed to be as big of a cliffhanger as when you think of Meli Raine's and Piper Rayne's various series that connect, they don't leave on as big of cliffhangers but still have that strong connection.  I think if you have read the first two books, then you will enjoy this series even if it is to be just reunited with the beloved characters of See No Evil as some of our favorites that we have come to love get their HEA's for now anyway.
