Book Review: Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun (Finlay Donovan, #3) by Elle Cosimano

NetGalley ARC Book Review of Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun (Finlay Donovan, #3) by Elle Cosimano
Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun (Finlay Donovan, #3) by Elle Cosimano is the latest installment in the Finlay Donovan book series.  It opens with Finlay needing to identify who a contract killer is before Mob Boss Feliks does or else she will be killed.  Unfortunately, Finlay thinks the killer is a dirty cop, so she and Vero go undercover at a citizen's police academy to figure out who it may be, and chaos ensues.

I'd like to thank NetGalley, St. Martin's Press, and Minotaur Books for the Advanced Reader's Copy of Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun (Finlay Donovan, #3) by Elle Cosimano.  I was thrilled to be approved to receive this book for free in exchange for my honest review.

Elle Cosimano has done a phenomenal job with this series making each sequel more believable.  After a rough start with the series, I've come to love most of the characters and the books.  I think the only character that I don't particularly care for is Finlay's ex-husband Steven.  Where I think he means well, he comes across as annoying, but you can't like every character!  In this edition, I began to suspect that Nick was a bad guy, but you'll have to read the book to see if I was right or not.

What I enjoyed about Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun is that there was mystery, suspense, romance, and a little humor sprinkled throughout the story.  This installment did a great job of connecting the dots between the last two books in the series to this book, and it left me on the edge of my seat to see if the cops would connect Finlay's and Vero's involvement in everything.  This was the perfect book to get me out of a reading slump.

I gave Finlay Donovan Jumps The Gun (Finlay Donovan, #3) by Elle Cosimano four out of five stars because it was such a fun read.  There really isn't anything negative I can say about it.
