A Shameless Little Bet (Shameless #3) Kindle Edition

by Meli Raine (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 578 ratings
How do I prove a negative?
I need to prove Jane is innocent, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
Mirrors, smoke, and lies can conjure a truth that isn't real. Money, bribes, and power can twist reality. What we call proof is all an elaborate magic act.
So is love.
How do you prove you're in love? How can you know with unrelenting certainty that the person you can't live without really loves you?
It's all about what you believe. Who you believe. And I believe Jane. I love her. But it might be too late.
Or, worse - it might all be an illusion. If proof is just a magician's sleight of hand, then we're caught in a sick trick.
A deadly one.
One that doesn't end with applause.
But with a bang.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Silas and Jane!
    Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018

    The conclusion to this riveting and suspenseful trilogy is here. After the events that transpired in A Shameless Little Lie Silas is not the only one with trust issues. Jane feels devastated, betrayed and heartbroken and is not sure if she can ever look at him the same way.

    Silas is determined to protect Jane and earn back her trust but the evil surrounding her just keeps getting closer. As they unravel layer by layer of this mystery it seems to bring more questions than answers but the biggest question of all is will they find out who is behind it before it is too late?

    The story is an amazing ride with so many twists that you end up with whiplash. The author has created compelling characters that draw you in and the suspense leaves you on the edge of your seat and it all crescendos into an amazing climax. I really enjoyed Jane and Silas’s story and can’t wait to see what this author comes up with next.

    5.0 out of 5 stars So worth the wait...
    Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2018

    So I was halfway through a great book when I realized it was June 5 on the east coast. I randomly checked my kindle and there it was, "A Shameless Little Bet.". I can think of maybe one time I put a book on hold for a new release. The book wasn't great, so I didn't feel too bad and I did go back and finish it. But here I was really enjoying this novel and I make it a practice to finish what I am reading even if a new release was just delivered. Well...suffice it to say, I finished the chapter I was reading and went against my practice and put the novel on hold. I had been waiting as patiently as possible for the final novel in this trilogy. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!

    Meli Raine did not disappoint. In fact this trilogy may be her best yet, though I was just as enthralled with the Harmless trilogy. I liked how this one picked up from Harmless and really built on the characters. But something about Silas and Jane really captivated me. Her strength and his emotional side when brought together was enthralling. Seeing how Lindsey had slowly moved forward and going between the love/hate feelings toward Drew all made the novel that much richer.

    Anyone want f a good trilogy read or even a stand alone novel, a mystery and suspense hit...This book/series is for you. You will not be disappointed and won't have to wait to read them all. My suggestion: read the four trilogies in order.

    Rating: 5.0

    OMG!!! WOW!!! Talk about looking in all different directions and not knowing what is happening next. The third and final book of the Shameless Series FINALLY gave us quite a few answers we've been wondering throughout the series...not to mention the fact that Silas and Jane FINALLY get to be together!

    Meli gives us many twists and turns and it is hard to keep up at some spots but, thats what keeps us reading on to find out what happens. We knew who was involved in the who mess against Jane, but now we find out for sure what was going on, how long it was going on, and exactly how far it stretched into everyone else's lives.

    ANOTHER GREAT ONE!! And I can't wait to see what the next one brings!!!!

    Great series.
    But what protag said earlier? If she told all it would both free her and implicate her?
    I never felt we got to that part.
    And oddly enough, a late arrival in a series of series.
    But I liked the writing, and will mark this for the series effort.
    As well, the last book can not have annoying sudden cliffhangers.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2023

    I just noticed that apparently I read the last series first. I started with the story of Drew and Lily and then I started with Silas and Jane. It is all so confusing and I would recomend to start reading at the beginning and go the "right" way.

    This book that started with so much confusion is cleared out in the end, with only one question (which is answered in fake memory) who shot Lily?

    It is quite the good story, but get really weird sometimes. The author, well if the goal is to create mystery, I guess mission is accompliced since I was confused a lot but so was the characters in the book do we had that in common.

    There are some hot scenes, faul language and violence, if that is not something you can or want to read, this is not the book for you. But I have to give applause to Meli Raine for writing this many series and keeping the same red thread and mystery going, that is not easy and show a great author.

    With all this said, I give this book a 3 out of 5 stars because it was more confusing than intriguing for me and kind of repetitive with the murders and murder attempts, and that chipped of the stars.

    Meli, Meli, Meli....you kill me. You DID say you would redeem Drew and you did...but I still don't like him lol...This book is the final book in Silas and Jane's journey and it is certainly a doozy. As I was reading, I kept imagining what "the storyboard" must look like because there are so many moving parts, so many mysteries, so many different characters who have significant roles. It would seem inundating to me but Meli writes a completely seamless story where everything (well as I am starting to learn with Meli not necessarily EVERYTHING) comes together and makes some sense. With the introduction and more information on certain characters, I now know I need to go back and read The Breaking Away and Coming Home series because I NEED to know more (not a requirement though to enjoy this series for the record). If you enjoy twisted suspense with some definite steam, this entire series is a great place to be.

    What an ending! Silas and Jane have their story come to a close, but I think we'll get to see more of them in the next trilogy!

    Once again, there is lots of drama and intrigue. Jane is a target and they still don't know who is pulling the strings. There are so many facets to the mystery and the various people who draw conclusions and make judgements.

    Some of the outcomes are a surprise, but you'll manage to figure out a few!

    From the very beginning of the first book to the last page of the third book I was engrossed and my heart racing for much of all three books. The first two end on a cliff hanger, so definitely not standalones and I am so glad that I didn't discover them until all three were published because I'm not sure that my nerves could have taken it.
    The series is full of intrigue, details, twists and turns that keep you guessing and a love story with depth and meaning. I don't want to say anything about the plot because you just need to read, it's well worth it.
    I am definitely going on to read Lily's story, but am waiting until all three books are out because if they are as good as this series, I will need my fix all in one hit!!

    Wow, book three in the Shameless series is finally here and what a story it is! Took me a little bit to get through just because I was so anxious all the time I had to keep stopping and then picking it back up, but only because the story was so good! Loose ends come together, with a whole lot of smoke and mirrors and answers to previous questions are finally revealed:)

    Another brilliant, captivating, exciting continuation and ending of the trilogy. Ms. Raine’s description of how Silas compartmentalizes his emotions is very realistic and understandable not only for a man in his position but for all people who wear different “hats”. I had no idea that political protection was so much more complicated than celebrity protection. These connected trilogies make one realize that the political arena is one big spin.
