For Her Benefit by Nana Malone is book Three in the See No Evil Trilogy. This continues the story of Olivia ‘Livy’ Ashong and Ben Covington, so you really should read the previous books ‘Big Ben’ and ‘The Benefactor’ first before starting this one. In the last book we were left with some big question but for me eager to know more, and this book along with this series kept me wanting more until the end. Ms. Malone knows how to write those books that keep the pages turning and leaving you wanting more. I would highly recommend this series along with all her books.
One hell of an end to a gritty series
Altogether, Nana Malone’s See No Evil trilogy has been one hell of an amazing read and I enjoyed every hot minute of it. This is the last book and you absolutely have to read the other two first! She dropped some bombs on us readers in the middle book, so I was gagging to get into this one!
Holy crap, it was one adrenaline high after another, and Livy was no shrinking violet, this woman who rescues herself from adversity is my hero. Like all of Ms Malone’s heroines, she is a strong and independent, resourceful woman who takes no prisoners, so she fits in very nicely with the Winston Isles Royal team who are helping Ben and his loyal friends bring down The Elite.
This is where Ms Malone pulls everything together so it was definitely the grittiest book of the three, hell, I reckon it’s one of the grittiest and most disturbing of plots that she has written but damned if I wasn’t totally stuck to the virtual pages of my tablet. His Lordship got dinner late that night!!! Now that I’ve finished, my head is reeling, and my stomach is churning.
She has also laid the groundwork for her next book, and I know damn well it’s going to be just as awesome.
There is nothing formulaic or predictable about Nana’s writing, and I have no idea what goes on in that head of hers, but I’m rapt to have found her books, that’s for sure. They are fast-paced, witty, and steamy romantic suspense reads, and even though each duet, and this trilogy, are stand-a-lones, they have returning characters. I just love seeing that the Winston Isles Royal Family and the Royal Guardians are still getting up to some very unroyal hijinks! As always and predictably from me, I believe her books are 5 Star reads!
For Her Benefit was the conclusion to the Big Ben Series that we have all been waiting for. This book immediately picks up where book 2 and you find out what happened to Olivia and how strong she really is. The book goes on to wrap up the mystery presented in book 1. There are many twists and turns but the conclusion is reached in a very realistic way. I was surprised how the eventual vote went and Ben’s plan to move forward but I think it was a very satisfying conclusion. The reappearance is Team Winston Isles was the best and the set-up for the next series is something I can’t wait for. When we first met Ben I couldn’t wait for his books and they did not disappoint.
The title of the trilogy caught my attention as this is the first time in reading this author. Very daring reading that has this brother going too. It captures your interest as soon as you get a few pages in. Vengeance can be a rush but also dangerous. I like the tangles web this author wove with Livy coloring the pages causing the Ben to pause. Both of them have the power to hold your attention especially if you have not encountered this author’s writing. It gives you the elements with the reason we look for the reads that for thrills us. This one does that and takes us with Ben and Livy enjoying every minute.
The final installation of Ben and Livy’s story was everything I expected it to be. All the twist and turns were masterfully accomplished by Nana and OMG the entire story had me so engrossed and well invested in seeing it to the end. The combination of the London Lords, the House of Winston Isles, Ben, and Livy falling in love must this story a MUST read. And as with every great story throw in an entire operation of bad guys that the good guys are trying to bring down, all combined with their hilarious antics and you have nothing but superb writing by and awesome author. As this is the final installation of the story you absolutely must read the other 2 books but do not fret you will enjoy those as much as you’re going to enjoy this one.
If you like fun, witty with loads of romance then this series is for you. Join the fun and start in with this series and beware at the end there is an even more special treat, by the time you get to the epilogue you too will be riding high on the Nana Malone series bandwagon. Buckle up it’s going to be a most enjoyable ride.
The adventurous romantic tale of Ben and Liv comes to it’s conclusion. This book really gives you insight into how much Liv has grown and changed. Ben is still determined to avenge the death of his friend while Liv deals with threats on her life as she continues her mom’s work related to sex trafficking.
Liv and Ben’s relationship is complicated as they continually deal with obstacles and challenges being thrown at them, but this only makes them stronger. This was a great series filled with plot twists that kept me intrigued until the end.
This is a good, action packed ending to this part of this series. It’s so great seeing the whole gang. The characters and their adventures are always a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to the next story and finding answers to more of the mystery.
For those that love a series that will keep you on the edge of your seat and your heart beating incredibly fast, read this trilogy! I was hooked from the start of book 1 of this trilogy all the way to the end of book 3! This book is action packed and full of heat – I loved every minute! This was the conclusion that Livy and Ben deserved and I wouldn’t have changed a thing! Bravo, Nana!
This set is finally over, 3 books in and we get to see Ben and Livy get their HEA. But of course as always with their life on the line, great series
Firstly, this is the 3rd and final book in a trilogy, so don’t even consider reading this as a standalone because you won’t have a clue about what’s going on. With that out of the way, I really enjoyed this read. There was tension, there was drama, there were laughs. With all books from this author you don’t just get to read about 2 characters, you get a whole ensemble – and it really works. Again, if you’ve read other books from this author you may be familiar with some of them. This aspect makes the book really feel like a community of friends which is lovely. I greatly enjoyed this book, and the whole series, but for me, there just wasn’t that extra something to push it into 5*.
The conclusion to Ben & Olivia’s story from The Benefactor. Picking up right where Nana Malone left us, we get the rest of the story and WHAT a story it is. This trilogy is intense and kept me on my toes, wanting more. I definitely recommend binge reading now that all three books are out. A great, suspenseful, satisfying read.
There were so many aspects of this book that I enjoyed. Revisiting the Winston Isles characters, Ben and Liv’s relationship, the heist, the intrigue, the mystery, the romance, the action, the danger, and suspense.
I have read a number of books lately where there was no chemistry or connection between the H and h. Ben and Olivia had it all. They were fun, witty, smart, and tenacious. They liked and respected each other. There was a buildup of sexual tension that just enhanced their steamy scenes. I mean, that kitchen scene…..
I enjoyed the relationship between Ben, Bridge, East, and Drew. They were loyal friends and managed to easily incorporate Liv and Tella into the crew. New friendships were formed with the Winston Isles gang. I loved that there were so many tech geeks in this book.
There were a couple of surprises that were truly unexpected and one not so unexpected. Rest assured, the major issues were resolved, yet some issues remained not quite complete. Ben and Liv got their HEA.
I am not sure that I am clear on what happened with Caroline. Either I missed something, or that part of the story kind of faded out after they figured out what she was trying to do. Also, the book ends on what could be called a minor cliffhanger, or the enticement to continue reading about the London Lords.
I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book received from the author.
I have been waiting for the final book in Ben and Olivia’s story and the wait was worth it!!! Drama, friendship, love, plus some sexy times makes for a happy me with a story that took me on an adventure. Characters I didn’t expect popped in (TWI). Ben and Olivia have the type of love that is timeless and finally they can live it in the light.
Yes it is ultimately a love story but this one had a real theme of awareness of situations that happen in real life. Thank you for sharing light on that Nana Malone.
I cannot wait to see what is next in store for the London Lords but I will keep my popcorn and wine tee’d up.
“Just the idea of not having you next to me, not having you giving me $hit, not having your laughter fill my house, makes me ill. I fell in love with you.” ~ Ben
This is an amazing ride to the conclusion of Ben and Olivias Story .. I started reading Nana one series ago and I have been hooked since. The romance,the suspense and the truth fullness of this story will have you at the end of your seats .
This is not your typical romance novel this is a steady, hot, sexy, sweet, loving BOOK !!
Can’t wait for MORE !! I am afraid if I write more I might spoil it with my word truthfulness and tell everyone every thing when you should experience this amazing book for your self !! 🙂
What a great ending to this fabulous trilogy and the start of a great series!
This book starts where Book 2 leaves off and we’re thinking that Liv is dead (or at least left for dead). What ensues makes you realize that she’s no waif and definitely a force to be reckoned with!
This book is packed with so much deliciousness! There’s Ben and Liv, her captivity, the research for her mom’s book and all that this brings to her, and human/sex trafficking. But there are tons of fun things – like the Winston Isles group comes to help out, the intrigue surrounding their attempted theft of the Van Linstead’s huge diamond bracelet (there’s more to this), Ben and Liv’s relationship and then the election for the new Director Prime. This book is jam packed with such great story lines and writing. I will say that I started being wary of Drew since book 2 as he seems to be a background player and doesn’t seem to really interact with the rest of the group (East, Bridge and Ben) so I wonder what’s going on with him.
But I will say not only was this book spectacular but the teaser for the next book has me hooked and I can’t wait.
This trilogy was a great read!
Finally, the conclusion to Ben and Olivia’s story is here. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the second book, and I didn’t get a break by starting the third. Liv is a vicious woman. Do not mess with her. If you mess with Liv, you WILL get the horns. Liv has grown from a mild and meek woman to an unbreakable force. I would expect no less of a woman for Ben. I do feel bad for Ben in this book. He is driving himself crazy trying to protect Olivia and yet giving her space. Nana did a great job of bringing everything full circle. No stone was left unturned. Right when you think you will have a happy ending, she leaves you with a little nugget that will drive you crazy until her next book! Although we know the conclusion for Liv and Ben, I can’t wait to discover what else can happen in London’s streets.
Action! Action! Action
Book 3 is full of action, and I love it. You have to have read book 2, because this one starts exactly where book 2 ends. All I can say, is Livy is a force to be reckoned with. Ben is a lot more vulnerable in this book and it was good to see. I think he’s finally coming into his own.
All for one and one for all is the backbone of the London Lords and as surprising as the ending was, it wasn’t. They all have each other’s back and they’ll need it.
I’m already excited to see how the other character evolve.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book.
This is Book 3 in the See No Evil Trilogy
This is the final book of the story of Ben & Livy. This story picks up from the cliffhanger of Book 2, The Benefactor. Livy is a force to be reckoned with. Ben is very protective of her, but she likes her space. I love the way a lot of the characters are in every book. So much action, so much steamy love, so much emotion, a lot of happiness, some sadness. Ben and his mates from the Elite still have more to do. Yes, this book ends in a cliffhanger, and am looking forward to the part of this puzzle in East’s story. I just love Nana Malone’s books.
So amazing!!! Nana’s books always obsess me and when I read them I can’t put them down and I waited a lot to read about a Ben and Liv, and damn, this book was everything. The suspense with the benefactor was killing but I’m glad I got the chance to read this early and enjoy again the story. Ben and Livy are amazing and I loved their scenes, especially their ending.
We also got the chance to read about Nana’s previous characters and I truly enjoyed that because I love the Team Winston Isles and I always love reading about them<3
Now I’m dying to read about East and see what happens after the epilogue and with the Elite.
OMG! The conclusion to this trilogy was a complete roller coaster ride that I didn’t want to end. The book has everything…humor, suspense, steamy romance, fantastic friends, a heist, secrets and take downs! I loved Ben and Livy so much. Add in Team Winston Isles and the London Lords and the cast of characters is fabulous. The ending was satisfying, but still left us with seeds for the next series. I’m already counting down to fall in love with the other London Lords. I received an advance copy and am voluntarily leaving a review.
