2.25 stars. I got this as a blind date with a book. Saw it was part of a series and decided to try it anyway. It was slow and didn’t hold my attention until maybe the last 75 pages. I might have been more invested had i started with book one but this one didn’t really interest me enough to want to read more. Maybe eventually I’ll try book one but not likely.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a gift, and not something I would have normally picked up, but I'm glad I had the chance to read it!
There were times where I felt a little lost, considering this is a book #3 in a series, but it still worked really well on it's own at the same time. I enjoyed the writing, and the plot kept me hooked.

Had I known that this was book 3 of a series, I wouldn't have picked it up. The multitude of characters unleashed at the beginning was confusing and I had no attachment to them. I found this book very hard to get through, which might have been avoided had I read the first 2 in the Ireland series. Would've been nice to have that tidbit of information before I started reading.
Not very much romance in this one but it does wrap up the story from the previous two books. Lizzie Rush is supposedly a hotelier's daughter, rich-heiress-playgirl, but, in reality, she is trying to track down Simon from the previous books because both she and he were involved in helping the FBI take down a man who's interested in revenge.
If you are going to read this series you need to read all the books close together. The story lines, as well as the time lines all cross over. This story was supposed to be about Lizzie Rush and Will Davenport. Its suppose to be a romantic thriller, but you really do not get to delve into their story. You are still enmeshed in Abigail's and Keira's stories from the first two books. This is all well and good, but I fell almost everything that happened could have happened in the other story.
Abigail has been kidnapped by Norman who is running from the FBI. He wants to punish John March and Simon for their roll in his downfall. Lizzie has secretly been spying on Norman even though she is not a spy, just an adventurous hotelier. Will is still on his quest to help Simon and that includes looking after Keira, and meeting Lizzie at the same time.
Overall the story was okay, but very convoluted. It is almost too big for its britches, and I am kind of Happy there is only one left in the series. Hopefully this last title wraps everything up nice and neat.
