White Collared Part Three: Revenge (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Now for Part three - Kate has finally shared her secrets with Jaxon. Things are heating up between them, if not in the case. Suspects are being eliminated. An uneasy truce with a reporter reveals the Jaxon lied about his alibi. Kate does not have tolerance for liars. A clue pans out and points to a totally unknown suspect. Kate goes to investigate and suddenly finds herself in the midst of this book’s cliffhanger. Grrrr. Where is that last book - Passion? Need to know what happens – now!I do love a good crime drama and this one is totally delivering in every respect. Wonderfully complex characters, clues that lead nowhere and everywhere, gripping suspense, and heart stopping action, and then add in the erotic BDSM elements – holy hotness! But, the added suspense of serials . . . *sigh* this has me hooked, but my patience is finite. Thank goodness there is only one more part. 3.5 stars White Collared started with an intriguing start that only builds with each installment to the story. While I was intrigued from the start, I wasn't completely satisfied with what I found, wanting more from both the characters and the storyline. Mercy really served as an intro to the lives of Kate, Jax, and Nick, and served to set up the situation that will soon unravel. The secondary characters were the ones who really rang true for me with this e-serial. I loved Logan, Camille, and several of the others. Kate as a main character irked me slightly, mainly to do with her taking a pill for anxiety what seemed like about every other page. While there is some resolution to this by the end of the book in a way, I still thought it was a very unsafe habit, particularly since to have that amount of pills for panic attacks seemed a bit unlikely to me, and had a hard time connecting with her because of this.The romance between Kate and Jax was slightly rushed, yet as I saw them dive deeper into it, it became very authentic. I loved the scenes between the pair of them and continuously wanted more.The whole situation with Nick was a bit interesting since throughout the entire book there was this constant allusion to something building between the three characters.I'm quite curious to see what else Shelly Bell has written as I did enjoy this one. The suspense was there with the crimes as the actual killer was quite a shock to me. There were just some elements were I was left feeling like things were not completely tied up and was hoping for a bit more.
