Book Review: Veronica Ruiz Breaks The Bank (Finlay Donovan, #3.5) by Elle Cosimano

book review veronica ruiz breaks the bank finlay donovan elle cosimano
Veronica Ruiz Breaks The Bank (Finlay Donovan, #3.5) by Elle Cosimano is a short story that gives the reader some background on Veronica "Vero" Ruiz.  Vero is on the run after being accused of stealing money from her sorority and lands at her cousin Ramon's apartment to start her life over.  Utilizing a fake name, Vero lands a job as a custodian at a local bank where money has gone missing.  Can she help solve this mystery without revealing her true identity?

I had no idea that Elle Cosimano came out with a short story about one of the secondary characters in the Finlay Donovan series.  When Amazon.com suggested this book to me, I was over the moon with excitement.  Without hesitation, I purchased and downloaded the book.

Learning about Vero's backstory was very interesting to me, and I love that readers were able to see that this character was always spunky and took no prisoners.  Even though Finlay Donovan doesn't make an appearance until the end of the story, it still was a quick, fun read that had a lot of "comedy of errors".  It still gives off that "Good Girls" vibe like the other stories in the series.

The author definitely upped her game with this short story in my opinion and gave the readers a lot of adventure, romance, and suspense.  Five out of five stars is what I gave Veronica Ruiz Breaks The Bank (Finlay Donovan, #3.5) by Elle Cosimano.
