Turns out there was a second video from that awful night four years ago. Mine wasn’t the only tape.Too bad mine wasn’t the worst.Drew can’t protect me no matter how hard he tries, but the roles are flipped now. I have to help him, but I’m not wired that way. Not anymore. That one night changed me more than anyone knows.More than anyone could predict.Three men think they’re above the law. They’re … think they’re above the law. They’re right.
But I’m willing to go beneath the law to make sure they never harm anyone else. Their threats don’t scare me.
When you have nothing left to lose because someone took it all away, you create the most dangerous creature imaginable.
Me.
Game over.

From start to finish this trilogy was an absolute roller coaster. This final book had my heart in my throat and feeling afraid of what was going to happen next. I can’t wait to jump into Jane’s story!!
3 stars:
This was just an ok conclusion to the series. I think the main thing was that the main couple wasn’t my fave. I do look forward to reading more Meli Raine books.
Andi Arndt and Sebastian York did a good job narrating.
I received this book at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

OMG what a thrilling ride this trilogy was. Freakin loved it! Can’t wait to dive straight into the Shameless series.
Great read! I can’t wait to read more of Meli Raine!
4.5 Stars for this suspenseful conclusion
Oh my. This was at least as suspenseful and thrilling as the other two books if not more. It felt kind of like reading the script of the TV show 24. Haha! There was so much action going on in such a short time which really had me on the edge. Though it wasn’t throughout the whole book and the ending brought me down slowly from the high adrenaline rush of the beginning.
The Story:
Lindsay knows what’s going to happen to her though she’s sure that Drew will come and save her but for now she has to play for time. Drew on the other hand is locked up and worried about Lindsay. He has to get out of jail to save her. He must have to stop the guys wanting to hurt Lindsay and finally stop this deadly game they play. Will Drew be in time to save Lindsay? Will they finally find out who’s behind all of this?
Thoughts:
The book is in Lindsay’s and Drew’s POV and I was really glad about this because in the first two books I always wondered what the other one was doing or thinking. Now we got the full experience.
I devoured this book. It was such a quick read that I couldn’t put down. It was a great conclusion to this series even though I wished for a bit more at the ending.
Who was behind all of what happened to Lindsay? We know about the three men from four years ago but already in the second book did we notice that there must be people with high influence involved. I just felt a bit let down by the way the bad guys got revealed or not revealed and about their consequences.
Since I’m already mentioning the things that bothered me a bit I have to say that even though I kind of liked the ending it was a bit too open for me. But maybe it’s just me. From the first book on I couldn’t wait to know how Lindsay will live and deal with everything that’d happened to her and the ending didn’t really satisfy me in that matter. Especially regarding her parents and Lindsay’s role in her father’s career because this was an issue most of the time.
A lot of things that were unclear and left open from the first two books got wrapped up nicely in this one and now I’m kind of sad that it’s over, mostly because I’ll miss Drew.
O.M.G! I binge read the Harmless Trilogy in a day and a half! I couldn’t put it down! If you enjoy Political Thrillers then you need to read this trilogy. While so many questions were answered in this dual POV book, there are still some things that aren’t fully explained. IMO, that is true to life and makes the story realistic. When deception of this magnitude occurs there is no way to have all the answers. Everything can’t be tied up with a neat little bow.
Lindsay and Drew have been through so much and deserve their HEA. Together they make each other whole.
I loathe Lindsay’s mother even more than I did at the end of Book 1. Her father isn’t fit to be a Senator, much less POTUS. I would love to find out that Lindsay and Drew never spoke to either of them again.
This was my first encounter with Meli Raine (even though I’ve read books under her pen name Julia Kent) but it certainly won’t be my last. I’ve already got the Coming Home series on my ereader just waiting for me to binge read.
I recommend reading this trilogy one after another to get the complete story. I enjoyed the series.
Crazy. Emotional. Ridiculous. Intriguing.
Lindsay and Drew go through even more than they had to in the past, which is saying something. They’re fighting an old battle with old opponents and everywhere they turn, they’re being lied to and called crazy.
Their final battle is outrageous and I didn’t see it coming at all! I’m still in shock. In the end, I’m glad they gave her parents the finger. Awesome!
So A Harmless Little Plan (Harmless, #3) by Meli Raine is the final instalment in this thrilling and addictive trilogy.
This final part is told from both Lindsay and Drew’s perspective and we come in where we left off.
Drew is in custody after being fitted up and poor Lindsay is again in the hands of her rapists.
This instalment for me hit the ceiling in realms of ridiculousness in regards to rescue plans, despite the seriousness of the storyline I actually felt like laughing which was highly inappropriate considering it wasn’t meant to be humorous at all, I just couldn’t help myself, the plot was so tall.
Despite this (it actually added to my enjoyment) I still found A harmless little Plan incredibly engrossing.
This is why I have still rated this so high, I know it was far-fetched in terms of plot but I still kept reading and finished in record time.
I lost count of the number of videos doing the circuit, the one with the masks, the ones without, the one with the guns and without, Lindsay’s video, Drews Video geez everyone and their dog had a video but I still loved this completely.
And a quick question how the hell does a certain someone learn how to access the dark web (we find out the identity of Lindsays contact who teaches her this)
really can’t see it myself.
So we do get our answers, here but in terms of closure Its one of those morality dilemmas of why?
and this does leave a bit of a sour taste as the why is really for power and fame and money.
no answer or reason at all.
I was happy we went a bit further into the future with Lindsay and Drew as I got a glimpse of the start of there HEA which is still a journey in progress as they both start to heal from there awful pasts.
My favourite part of the whole series was actually at the end when our couple are sitting in bed skyping Lindsay’s mum and Dad and Drew actually giggles, yes I kid you not big bad Drew giggles, loved it.
So one last observation before I sign off I would like to award the worlds worst parents of the year award to Lindsays folks, you two are awfully awful, there are just no words to describe your complete and utter selfishness in regards to your daughter especially you Monica you vapid horror.
So its safe to say for me “A harmless little plan” was a satisfying and unintentionally funny hit,
I hope it hits the spot for you also.

I had to finish the series what can I say. Maybe it’s the fact that the point of view changes constantly between the female and male lead but I had a hard time following first person written from 2 different characters. I also had a hard time following the story occasionally because I couldn’t tell what was emotional pain versus physical injury. I loved the story idea behind these books but feel like one long book written from one point of view would have served better.
