A review by bookwormlala
The Intern, Volume 3 by Brooke Cumberland
3.0
2.5 stars
Plot: C-
The mystery of the other books is gone. Cecilia, after all of these years gave up on trying to find her father's murderer. There are no real plot developments regarding that. I liked the other books because she was investigating her father's murder. That's what made this different. And add in the fact that Bentley is heir to the company that could help her...but all of that goes away. The investigation, the company, all of it. It turns into another mediocre book that you can find anywhere else, and the spark was extinguished. AND once the murder IS figured out it was a great big letdown. She didn't figure it out, she was told to her after YEARS of her jusst waiting after she starts investigating. No person was brought to justice. It didn't help the company. Nothing.
Characters: D
Nothing special about Cecelia and Bentley in this story. The spunk and ballsiness is gone from Cecelia. And the dominant man is gone out of Bentley. This got a D because it was implied that though Cecelia had moved on by getting a boyfriend, she hadn't slept with anyone else during their separation. Not implied for Bentley, in fact he says he needs to go find a hookup. Not a big fan if the girl holding out while the guy does whatever.
Heat: C
Nothing special, the few scenes lacked the heat of the others books, and the chemistry wasn't there. The forbidden.
Overall the elements that made the first two parts if the story awesome were missing, so this book was disappointing.
