A Shameless Little Con by Meli Raine
Review by Sasha Meli Raine delivers an action-packed, sarcastically funny, heart racing novel with a wonderfully delightful romance at the center of it all with A Shameless Little Con. Jane Borokov’s life has been turned upside down ever since news broke of her mother’s involvement in the Lindsey Bosworth case; the case in which her mother played an instrumental part in allowing Jane’s best friend and daughter of a US senator to be violently raped on live television. New evidence has been released that implies that Jane had something to do with helping her mother. She’s innocent, but no one will believe her. Who would when the entire world would rather have someone to place the blame on than attempt to find forgiveness. Even her bodyguard, Silas, who is sworn to protect her life at all cost can’t look at her like she’s a real person. As the number of attacks on her life and nasty looks Jane receives increase, the harder it is for her to keep her mask on. She’s barely functioning as it is and would only take so little for her to truly break down. She seeks the comfort of another kind person to remind her that she’s human, that she does deserve the chance to have a normal life again. Through all the trauma that revolves around this case, Jane slowly breaks through Silas’s hard exterior. He seems to warm up to her, in a way that is most definitely not professional. Silas starts to see the real person that is hidden so deeply behind the gossip and the rumors. Jane slowly opens her heart up to Silas, and he does the same, in hopes of letting this small spark they have between the two of them grow into something more. Just when they might be finding a good place, new information comes in that shatters Jane’s already fragile world. I give this 5 out of 5 stars. Your heart aches as you watch Jane attempt to build herself back together and faces the world at its harshest. I couldn’t put this book down and had my fingers itching to get the next two in the series. The cliffhanger that it leaves you on is horribly fantastic, and left me gasping for breath and another chapter. **Copy provided for honest review**
