Household Inheritance 3

Household Inheritance #3

by Anya Merchant

Sean is left reeling by the discovery that his part-time maid and part-time girlfriend may, in fact, be an FBI informant. With few good options on the table and plenty of bad ones, he’s left on the precipice of an impossible decision regarding Dolly with nowhere to turn for the help.

Like any responsible human, he decides it’s time for a vacation. Packing bags alongside the women who fondly tend to him, Sean departs for the Bahamas in search of information regarding his father’s secret shell company. His bodyguard, Ace, comes along with advice that he both needs to hear and desperately wishes he could ignore.

The Bahamas can be awfully dangerous. Sometimes, things just happen.

This book is intended for the mature reader.

The thrilling conclusion of Household Inheritance
Book 3 continues the adventures of Sean Costello, who has inherited a Las Vegas casino, his mother Beatrice, stepmother Lilian, half sister Ash, advisor Ace, and live-in maid/girlfriend/possibly informant Dolly. There is lots of intense action, unexpected plot twists, gripping suspense, steamy romances, forbidden longings, dark cravings, dangerous secrets, and illicit urges.
Sean, Ace, Beatrice, and Dolly go to the Bahamas to search for the missing millions needed to save The Pharaoh's Fortune. Lilian joins them at the last minute. Sean doesn’t know whom to trust and is usually feeling guilty and confused by his lust for all the women. There are several unexpected plot twists, and the suspense continues until the final chapters when the surprising finale concludes the story.

This one seemed rushed and plot was thin on the ground. The best thing about this is that it wrapped this series up in 3 books. It's rated on a curve, as I can't blame the author for writing what she does, but it's still ludicrous that some 18-year-old guy would be such catnip to so many women. It had a bit more promise in the previous books, but I think the story ran out here, so a good place to stop.

That Ending

Dolly ended up being more of a drawback than a strength for the story. This is supposed to be a tale about a crime family, yet we never actually learn what kind of crime they’re involved in—which makes the whole setup feel hollow. As for the ending, it really missed the mark. The scene with Ace getting shot and the leap into the stormy water felt forced and unearned, leaving the finale more frustrating than satisfying.

Fall from grace

I had high hopes for this series but this one fell very flat for me. It was very depressing, and the only thing that kept my interest was the incestuous teasing. It could have been do much more!
