A Shameless Little Bet by Meli Raine
Review by Sasha The thrilling conclusion in the Shameless trilogy is here and is packed with all of the punches. Meli Raine uses A Shameless Little Bet to answer all of the burning questions that have eluded us so far. Who is behind all of the attacks on Jane’s life? Who is Lindsey’s biological father? Will Jane and Silas be able to work out their differences and be allowed to be happy together? The group is so close to unmasking the villain that they’ve been chasing and as they dig deeper and deeper into the information, the more and more danger they embark on. Jane can’t seem to see the light at the end of the tunnel, losing the small bit of hope at a life of normalcy, but Silas keeps her grounded. With chapters written in Silas’s perspective, we start to understand exactly how this whole process has started to take a toll on him. You finally understand the intricate workings of his mind and how his job has consumed him and thus made him better at the same time. The events of her life have left Jane broken and wanting to build up her walls, ready to block out everyone who she thinks she couldn’t trust. Silas has to regain her trust and slowly break down those walls that she’s been building up so high. With the ground being pulled out from them, friends being picked off like flies, and rumors circulated faster than the news can keep up with them, Silas and Jane have to find a way to get back to each other. Because in this crazy world, the only people who can keep you safe and sane are the ones who can see you for the real you. Holy Crap. Did this novel keep me on edge. With every chapter, I was almost afraid of which character Raine was going to target next. The plot was filled with shocking twists that I would never have predicted. It made the conclusion of a fast-paced trilogy to be that much more thrilling. Everything about this novel was thrilling, not just the action scenes, but the ones that are centered around the relationships that people are dealing with; Silas and Jane, Jane and Lindsey, Monica and everyone. There are so many dynamic aspects of this story that it keeps you drawn into the story. **Copy provided for honest review**
