THE SIZZLING CONCLUSION TO THE HEAR NO EVIL TRILOGY

did I guess the main revelation? yes, I did.
did I still enjoyed this book? also yes!
My main dislike is the stupidity of the characters! why would they after everything they went through act so reckless and idiotic? sure, I get it is for the sake of the story. Still, I didn't like that.
best to read in order and I would even suggest reading the other trilogy first
Big Ben start with this book if you are in the mood for suspense, secret society, steamy, and mystery-filled books...
do I want to read the next book that features a different hero but continues with the storyline tied to these two trilogies? Absolutely!

In the conclusion of this trilogy, you follow East & Nyla as they work together to stop a well-known fugitive art thief Theroux and continue the hunt to take down those responsible for East’s friend Toby’s death. This story is filled with secrets, suspense, and multiple shootings. The journey these two take during their relationship is full of twists and turns, but thankfully Nana weaves a beautiful love story in which each character is able to not only fully embrace their true self but each other as well. I love the flirty banter that East and Nyla share. I love that East was able to learn to be protective without being so controlling. Without giving spoilers, I was definitely not prepared for what transpired with Denning, Agent Kincaid and Theroux. As always, I love the London Lords and the ladies in their circle. I look forward to Bridges story next and look forward to how it will all unfold.

Spectacular. Some of the things I guessed were right, others came out of nowhere, and everything is set up now for Bridge! I still have so many questions, but the answers this book gave me were brilliant! I simply love Nya, and the London Lords and the other ladies are pretty awesome too!

This was a fantastic ending to a thrilling trilogy. Yet again the characters and plot will keep you captivated from cover to cover. The way the author tied up all the loose threads left me gobsmacked, although I had hunches about some, I can't believe she actually went there, and then others, talk about bombshells.
You'll be white knuckling your kindle, rooting for everyone involved.

The Fall of East by Nana Malone is the exhilarating tale of a gorgeous alpha falling for the sassy queen and their epic happily ever after. The author also made me fall harder and deeper for this action packed, spicy and all consuming romance.
This story is the most complicated of the three books and that's expected. Because the puzzle pieces are coming together and the mystery is getting unravelled. Interpol agent Nyla Kincade and billionaire alpha East Hale are chasing clues and running all over the world to catch some evil persons. East and his friends are determined to clear all the corrupt members of the secret society called the Elite. They are part of the Elite but their missions spread far and wide. East has to keep Nyla safe as they encounter some dangerous criminal masterminds and Nyla is determined to do her part in everything. It's a complex tale of murder, art forgery, heists, conspiracies and mind games. And you will be at the edge of your seat.
So this story is about East finally finding a balance between his blinding possessiveness, irrational ( but so sexy) overprotectiveness and giving Nyla her freedom to be a bada$$. It's such a huge turn on to see this confident and arrogant and through and through alpha man losing his mind over his woman. He can really do anything and everything to protect her from all the pain. And that was an adjustment on Nyla's part. She is fierce and stubborn and calculated recklessness embodied. And she is used to be the smart, independent and strong version even under immense pressure. Actually she craved for unconditional love and safety inside while being a spitfire at the same time. East gave her that cozy place. Their chemistry was so intense and explosive. And their partnership in solving crime? Legendary. They work so well together. In and out of bed. The thrill was on point and I chewed off my nails again! This story has a large crew and I feel a connection with all of them. The bromance among the London Lords and the girl power of the kicka$$ women are the awesome parts of this story. I cannot stop wanting more.
No one can write romantic suspense with steam and feels like Nana Malone. The Fall of East is all about incredible characters, sensational chemistry and mindblowing story line.

This is the final book of East and Nyla’s story and I absolutely loved it! It may be their ending but I know we’ll see more of them and the London Lords in Bridge’s book.
This book as always was full of drama, suspense, action and sexy scenes that were perfect. East and Nyla were amazing, I loved their banter and how East always treated her like a queen. Nyla was a badass, and despite what people thought of her she always proved them wrong.
East was wonderful as always, I loved when he fought with Tilly to see who was the best hacker and I really enjoyed all the moments when the group was together, they were all a big family and I loved all their interactions.
That plot twist almost at the end I didn’t see it coming and I was dying to know more about everything, the Elite and Nyla’s story. I’m glad they’re more close to get revenge for Toby and that each of the London Lords is having a family of their own.
Now I’m dying to read Bridge and Emma’s story and see how they’ll finally act on their feelings.

What a wrap up! Mind absolutely blown! Nana Malone has a gift with making you feel her words and this book is a prime example. Nyla and East are absolutely combustible. They are really deep in the mystery now and each string they pull unravels a bigger piece of the puzzle their group as a whole has been trying to figure out for a while now. I love the added mystery and suspense and she for sure keeps us guessing until the very end. Happy to peek in to the lives of the Winston Isle crew as some make delightful cameos. That really adds to their story in my opinion. I loved how Nyla really came into her own and kicked butt and I loved how East struggled with the realization. They need each other and are so good together but I think they both needed to see that Nyla absolutely knows what she's doing and doesn't have to rely on others. Once she realized that and East saw it and finally accepted it I think they were much better off. This will absolutely take all the available space in your head, hang on and enjoy the wonderful conclusion to Nyla and East's trilogy!

This is the third book and the conclusion to the Hear No Evil Trilogy. What an incredible series that has been a page turner all the way. The worst part was having to wait for the next book to find out what's happening. Nana Malone never ceases to amaze me with her books and this trilogy is no exception. Agent Kincade and East Hale have taken me on an emotional roller coaster during this series. All the danger, drama and entanglements kept me on the edge of my seat at times. Who doesn't love anything that includes the London Lords? Nyla Kincaid has definitely stolen East Hale's heart.What a great conclusion to conclusion to East and Nyla's story. I read this book as an arc via the author and voluntarily chose to review it

Hot dam East Hale is the whole freaking world; North, South, East, and West😬 He is perfectly imperfect for Nyla and she for him. Those two stubborn set in their ways people were dynamite together but in a good way. Every single word of this book took me on a fast paced thrill ride with so many twists and turns and intrigue that made me dizzy with joy. Oh my goodness!! That was a spectacularly magnificent ending to the Nyla and Hale trilogy but then again it’s not the end because their is unfinished business by the Lords of London. I can’t wait to continue this thrilling ride with Bridge and Emma as the main couple but all the gang will be there. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Nana is the undisputed queen of romantic suspense. Until next time y’all happy reading.

Fun, fantastic and full of suspense, the thrilling conclusion to East and Nyla's story is finally here!
The action never stops with the London Lords, and The Fall of East is no exception. It's fast-paced, action-packed, full of twists and turns and a complete page turner.
With so much drama and full of suspense this book to me focuses on Nyla and East's growth as people and as a couple, in a high-stakes, rollercoaster of action and emotions. It's a puzzle with so many moving parts - you'll have to try your best to keep up!
5 stars and a secret

The Fall of East is the conclusion to the Hear No Evil series, but not the end of the London Lords; thank goodness! And, Nana Malone does not disappoint; there are so many twists and turns, shocks and surprises, that your head will be spinning.
Not only does Nyla get her man, but she learns the shocking truth about her lineage, and witnesses the downfall of her nemesis; and, the London Lords are now one step closer to avenging Toby's death.
Addictive and exhilarating series!

Suspenseful, intriguing, steamy and keep you on the edge of your seat. Yup all of that was accomplished and more I’m sorry to say. Why sorry because I wanted it to go on and on. I think East has become my favorite person out of all the cast of characters. Nyla is a force to be reckoned with. Watching the metamorphosis of these characters gave me palpitations.
The secondary characters were much more than secondary. Plus we got to reconnect with some of our favorites from past stories. I can’t wait to see where this series goes.
I’m happy to say I actually figured out two aspects of this story. That’s a first for me. Dumb luck!
I’m now anxiously waiting for the next story. I don’t know how Nana continues to top herself but she always does!

This is the heart thumping, temperature rising, nerves stretched to the breaking point conclusion to Nyla and East's story. The skillfully crafted blend of twists, action, drama, tension, suspense, deep emotion, danger and steam makes a potent storm that continues to bombard this couple, their friends and the reader. The banter is clever and sharp and the chemistry sizzles as the sparks fly between these complex and capable characters. I absolutely adored this fast-paced, flirty, edge-of-your-seat, romantic romp. I'm posting an unsolicited, objective review.
April 17, 2021
This book. This is the final book in the Hear no Evil trilogy and Nana Malone killed it. I mean of course she did she’s a brilliant author, so that’s a given. This book though, with all its twists and turns and suspense is just the best. Nyla’s wit and strength makes her the perfect heroine and East sweet baby Jesus I couldn’t have swooned any harder over him if I tried. Then he made garbage soup and I was done for. I just love him. There’s this whole bit with Nyla’s mom and dad, which is amazing! I had a feeling about that situation and the way it turned out. This series is excellent and should be read by everyone!
April 13, 2021
Absolutely fantastic!
This is the continuing and final book of East & Nyla. And what a great one it is. Tons of action and suspense in this book. It’s also funny with lots of love and steam. The two of them, and his and her team both face so much in this story, they’re lucky they survive. There are so many twists and turns bringing to light answers to questions, but also things you would never have imagined. It’s easy to follow thanks to the author. Nana Malone, you’ve done it again! Great, great ending to this series.

This final book in the trilogy was truly complex. I kept marveling at how Nana Malone's mind works. Just keeping track of all the plots, the characters, and how they were intertwined was amazing.
Reading this book immediately captured my attention, and it seemed as if I had to keep reading faster and faster, just to stay on track.
There was mystery, suspense, action, danger, twists, turns, and several surprises. It was also sweet, witty, humorous, romantic, and steamy. I loved the way all the characters had come together with each book in the trilogy, made their own "not so little" family, and tied it into the Winston Isles group.
What a great ending, along with the tease about Bridge and Emma. What comes next is anyone's guess!

Wow, what a conclusion. So much going on it was hard to keep up. But you did leave me with a few questions. Hopefully they will be answered in Bridge's books, but doubtful. Oh well.
I love this story, because this pairing never should have happened. But fate does like to shake things up and when the truth comes out, life will change. Here's hoping the gang can survive the blow of all of the truths to be revealed. And here's hoping those not directly impacted will be able to support and pick up the pieces for those directly impacted by these truths.
I loved Ben's story, but I think this one is better. Now. let's see if Ms Malone can raise the bar yet again with Bridge's story. I think his story will be blockbuster and I can't wait for it.

What a conclusion to the Hear No Evil Trilogy!!! I absolutely loved The Fall of East. I couldn't wait for this book after the ending of East Bound. I couldn't wait for the mansplaining to begin. Teehee!!! In my opinion Nana Malone did a great job of letting Nyla and East's growth to come through. Nana Malone gave me what I look for from her books suspense, action, twists and turns and lots of steam. I must say somewhere along the way I lost my detective hat. There were a lot of things I did not see coming, I usually catch right off the bat, for that Nana Malone gets a WELL DONE!!! I love the banter between Nyla and East it makes me smile. Nyla never loses here tough no nonsense attitude for the case, but she learns how to let East be himself. East's growth was something to watch, I loved it. East learns to protect Nyla yet not become controlling and breaking her spirit. I find Nyla and East a perfect couple. There were so many shocks at the end, yet not surprising.

I never wanted this to end!! Gosh I thought Ben and Livy were my favorite but now East and Nayla might be my favorite!! Their story is so great and I loved it! Nana’s writing is so beautiful and she has such a way with words. I find myself laughing out loud throughout the book. And of course I love to see when the other characters in her series pop up so we can see where they are in their lives.

This has to be the best book to date, but don't I say that about every single new release, anyway?
The further down the rabbit hole we go the more questions get asked.
What is it that Theroux really wants from Nyla and East? How is it that the bad guys always seem to be one step ahead of them?
What was once now is not. That’s the one finite thing about this book that I took away from it. Poor Nyla had her entire life turned upside down. Everyone needs an East Hale in their life, and their corner…and their bed.
Together they are unstoppable, hotter than hot and oh so romantic. Everybody deserves that kind of love. Nyla and East would stop at nothing to help one another. Nyla and East were charismatic together, even when they were at each other’s throats.
I do just have one question…what on earth is Drew is hiding?!?
I do hope we find out soon. Well done Ms. Malone I cannot wait for the next installment of hotter than hot London Lords.

4.25 stars--THE FALL OF EAST is the third and final instalment Nana Malone’s contemporary, adult HEAR NO EVIL erotic, romantic suspense trilogy focusing on Interpol agent Nyla Kincade, and billionaire businessman Easton ‘East’ Hale. THE FALL OF EAST should not be read as a stand alone, as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of book two EAST BOUND. The HEAR NO EVIL trilogy is spin-off from, and interconnected series to the author’s SEE NO EVIL trilogy focusing on three friends: Ben Covington, Easton Hale, and Bridge Edgerton, known as the London Lords, and all members of The Elite-the uber rich and powerful of Eton Academy in London England. Ben and Olivia’s story was told in the SEE NO EVIL trilogy where most of the characters were first introduced.
SOME BACKGROUND: Approximately ten years earlier, during their initiation into the group known as The Elite, Ben Covington, Easton Hale, and Bridge Edgerton lost their best friend and fellow Elite pledge Toby Varma as things quickly spiralled out of control. Seeking revenge against the people and families they held responsible for Toby’s death, Ben, East and Bridge walk a fine line between right and wrong in an effort to take down everyone involved. These are their stories. The Van Linsted family, the once powerful family heading The Elite- found themselves the center of an investigation into the abuse and trafficking of women, among other unethical crimes. When the case against the Van Linsted family landed on Interpol Agent Nyla Kincade’s desk, our heroine didn’t stop with the Van Linsted’s but continued to investigate everyone involved including Easton Hale and the London Lords, against the orders from her superiors in charge.
NOTE: The author includes a number of characters found in her other series of interconnected story lines.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Nyla and Easton) following several intersecting paths, THE FALL OF EAST picks up immediately after the events of book two wherein Nyla Kincade has been shot, and is recovering both physically and emotionally from a perceived betrayal. Healing is difficult when all she wants to do is get back to work and uncover the truth about the group known as the Elite, and their apparent connection to an international art theft and forgery ring but her love and one-time target of Interpol Easton Hale keeps our heroine under constant guard and protection but even Easton is blindsided when the truth is revealed. Betrayal, secrets and lies are about to place Nyla Kincade in the direct line of fire, but in doing so, the Elite will begin to crumble as the new order takes control including the ascension of Bridge Edgerton as the Director Prime.
The relationship between Easton and Nyla struggles in the aftermath of the shooting of our story line heroine. Easton has fallen in love with Nyla Kincade but betrayal from all sides threatens their tentative hold on a possible happily ever after. As Nyla continues her recovery at home, secrets are about to be exposed, influencing the direction of the current investigation revealing more than anyone could have imagined. The $ex scenes are intimate, passionate and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful, spirited, familiar and energetic secondary and supporting characters, some byway of mention (from the author’s other series): Ben Covington and Olivia (See No Evil trilogy); Bridge Edgerton; Toby’s sister Emma Varma; fellow London Lord Drew Wilcox; computer hacker Telly Brinx; Lucas and Bryna (Royals Undone Series); Nyla’s fellow agent and partner Amelia Jansen; Nyla’s ex-boyfriend and Interpol agent Denning Sinclair; Interpol agent and Denning’s new girlfriend Hazel; Nyla’s father Section Chief /Interpol Agent Roger Kincade; international art thief Francois Theroux; Easton’s parents, and his sister AJ Du Mont. The requisite evil has many faces. Bridge and Emma’s story is next.
THE FALL OF EAST is a complex and detailed story of deception, betrayal, secrets and lies. East, Bridge and Ben are one step closer to taking down the people responsible for the death of their friend but one step forward, two steps back as one of culpable parties runs for his life. The fast paced premise is intriguing, twisted and edgy; the characters are stubborn, strong and sassy; the romance is provocative and intense.

East, Bridge and Ben are one step closer to taking down the people responsible for the death of their friend but one step forward, two steps back as one of culpable parties runs for his life. The fast paced premise is intriguing, twisted and edgy; the characters are stubborn, strong and sassy; the romance is provocative and intense.

Disclaimer: I won free ARCs of the 'Hear No Evil' trilogy in a giveaway.
The final part of the Hear No Evil trilogy (books one and two previously reviewed here and here), The Fall of East is the perfect conclusion.
Nyla and East are back on track, but they still have to deal with Francis Theroux, Interpol, and the London Lords' mission to avenge their friend Toby. And that's of course without all the interpersonal drama between the London Lords and the women they're involved with, Nyla's ex-boyfriend being dangerously close to unveiling the Elite, and Nyla and East's respective issues with their dads.
All East wants to do is keep Nyla safe—and all Nyla wants to do is the freedom to do her job without being hindered. Understandably, this causes some issues between them, but it was really lovely to see them work through this as a couple rather than get stuck in a fight and break-up cycle. It took a while for them to really understand each other, but I loved seeing them grow together. Malone does a brilliant job of balancing their raw, physical attraction—and some seriously fiery scenes—with a genuine, emotional connection and some beautifully tender moments.
The narrative itself is also incredible, and Malone manages to use her large cast of characters to brilliant success. The foreshadowing is so well done; there are enough clues that I thought I knew where things were going but I wasn't entirely sure, which kept me hooked to the very end.
That said, I TOTALLY called it in regards to Theroux.
I did feel like some things didn't entirely get wrapped up—mostly what was going on with Drew because that didn't quite feel resolved to me—but I'm hoping that will be revisited in future books, as the London Lords definitely aren't done with seeking vengeance just yet.
All in all though, I loved The Fall of East, and I can't wait for future books, whenever they may be!
Final verdict: Thrilling to the very end, The Fall of East is an absolute joy.

Wow!! What a conclusion to the Hear No Evil trilogy Nana Malone has delivered with The Fall of East!!! This series has been an absolute joy to read, and The Fall of East, the third and final installment in the Hear No Evil trilogy, truly delivered. This story kept me on the edge of my seat. Nana Malone brilliantly weaved the suspense and mystery with the romance of East Hale and Nyla Kincaid in The Fall of East. There were so many twists and turns in this conclusion that I did not see coming. I could not put this book down I started reading it. The chemistry between East and Nyla jumped off the pages. These two belong together.
The Fall of East takes us on the final journey towards East Hale and Nyla Kincaid finding their happily ever after while the London Lords continue on their crusade for justice for their friend Toby. The Fall of East picks up right where Eastbound left off and threads all pieces of this romance mystery together into one final 'OMG!! That Did Not Just Happen Moment?' that will leave you with your mouth hanging open once all is revealed. The Fall of East does not disappoint.
So, if you are looking for a story with romance, mystery, suspense, super sexy overprotective alpha male billionaires, gorgeous independent women who know how to handle not only themselves, but their men too, a world filled with royals and secret societies, and characters that you will fall in love with and continue to love even after you have closed the book, then The Fall of East, actually the Hear No Evil trilogy is for you. Bravo, Nana Malone on yet another terrific book.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
Nyla Kincade has stolen my ruthless heart. Now that she own it I'm not taking it back. I've vowed to protect her with everything that I have. I will die before I break that oath. Considering the danger we face, that might be a careless promise. But I've fought this hard for vengeance, I must see it through. Because of those who heard no evil, a debt must be paid. And I will s top at nothing to see the scales balanced.
This is the third book in the Hear No Evil Trilogy from Nana Malone. You have to read East End, and East Bound before reading this book or you are going to be lost. Now East and Nyla are going to have to work together to stop a well known fugitive are their named Theroux. They also are continuing to hunt for the people responsible for East's friend Toby's death. They have a lot going on and a lot of danger to face. But now that East finally has Nila he isn't letting her go until he takes his last breath and leaves this earth. If you have read the other two books you have questions still and I thought this book did a brilliant job of answering them and then you add in all the twist and turns and the suspense of it all and you have one amazing conclusion to Nila and East's story. I loved this series and can't wait to see where Nana Malone takes us next.

Final in this amazing trilogy!!
The Fall of East, a perfect title for the final book in Author Nana Malone’s Hear No Evil trilogy, as East falls metaphorically from his status as single player over the course of these books, into love. Holy cow, I was thrown straight back into the action where it had ended in book two, East Bound, and I’m telling you now, it is imperative to have read books one and two book first.
The tentacles of the Elite reached further than any of the guys realised, but with the team ever expanding, they needed everyone’s combine talents to pull off the plans that they put together. I absolutely loved having Prince Lucas and Bryna as secondary characters and the cheeky, witty banter between everyone absolutely rounded out my reading enjoyment.
The plot threads are tied up nicely, and Ms Malone dropped some bombs in her typical style meaning that readers are going to be looking forward to the next trilogy, made only more enticing by the fracas between Bridge and Emma Varma. Holy cow, but the chemistry and the fighting between them certainly added an interesting dynamic to this book, and set the scene perfectly.
This was another perfectly put together book from Ms Malone, and for those who love romantic suspense well balanced with heat and wit, this 5-Star read is for you!!! 💙💙💙

Thrilling and satisfying conclusion to East and Nyla's romance, and the London Lords avenging plan! In the first two books of this series, the ability/inability to trust one another swung back and forth between East and Nyla. Finally, they manage to land on the same page in this final book as Nyla continues to fight for the respect of her Interpol Director-Father, and East and his mates try to bring down another of the people responsible for their friend, Toby's death. Their missions collide as the renown art thief, Francois Theroux, continues to dangle an information carrot in front of both of them.
The group planning meetings which involved all the London Lords, Livy and her hacker bestie, Telly, Toby's sister, Emma, Prince Lucas and his fiancée, Bryna (of Team Winston Isles!), and Nyla's bestie and her Interpol boss, Amelia, provided levity, especially when East and Telly competed to see who could hack a system fastest. Having the opportunity to see other sides to characters really adds depth and dimension to my reading enjoyment. Speaking of, there's a love/hate relationship dynamic happening with Emma and East's mate, Bridge, which has been brewing for a while. I believe they're next up in the "Speak No Evil" series?

What a spectacular conclusion. In the conclusion to this trilogy you follow along with East and Nyla as they try to put together all the pieces to the twisty mystery that they seem to have found themselves in. Nyla is trying to apprehend the most elusive thief ever and East is trying to avenge the death of his friend Toby. this story is filled with a lot of twists and turns that you really do feel like you're in a game of WHODUNIT. And while you're trying to solve the mystery, the relationship between East and Nyla is also growing, the chemistry between these 2 as always is vibrant and electric showing us just how much they are perfect for each other. As with the Lords of London, this story wouldn't be complete without appearances of the rest of the Lords.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone that in interested in reading a story that is filled of mystery, love, humor and happily ever after for an amazing couple. Just to truly appreciate the full experience I would say that you need to read the other 2 books in this trilogy first.
Once again, amazing and magnificent job with this book Nana Malone

It’s finally here!!! The Fall of East is the final book in East Hale’s trilogy of the London Lords!! Don’t worry, there is everything we’ve come to love in Nana Malone’s books. We have adventure, twists, the unexpected and all the steamy, satisfying scenes you could want! There’s also a HEA (finally!) and two! Count ‘em, two epilogues!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
In this book, we see more of Nyla and East as more of a side character but still a very important part of the story. East is determined to be her protector and save her from any danger. With so many dangerous people wanting to hurt them though, can he keep his word?
While continuing their work with the London Lords they are also trying to neatly wrap everything up for Interpol. The easy banter between these two and the chemistry is off the charts hot!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I loved all these books! Nana does a great job at intertwining her series so you feel like they are all one big family! It’s so intriguing to me how she can come up with these 🤔! Another trilogy, another well done book!
I received a gifted copy of this book in exchange for a honest review.
