Description

It began with a stolen almost-kiss
And ended in revenge

She was never supposed to cross my path.  
She was never supposed to know about the oaths I swore or the secrets I keep

But like a thief in the night, she took my heart and ran... even if she wasn't mine to possess

As a member of the billionaire Elite, I live by simple tenets. A gentleman above all. Loyalty is everything.. Secrets whispered are never revealed. And power is king

My so-called brothers killed my friend. I intend to make them pay.  And before it's over, I'll bend all the rules of morality, decency and legality. I will borrow and steal to set the scales right. But begging--begging, you can forget about. 

Unless she asks nicely.

My name is Ben Covington, and I know my sins.  

*This is only the beginning of the story of how a woman I met in a closet turned me into a thief. It takes time for the perfect heist. Join me and the London Lords in the continuation of the story in The Benefactor!

    Malone gives us wonderful characters to bond with and to root for. Then she adds villains that we love to hate and gives us reasons for our ire. Then love, passion and vulnerability are added and we are hooked. At the end of the first book in the series she leaves us with a scream in our throats. If I had not bought the series or if books two and three were unavailable I would had to track her down, as one Nana to another Nana, haha. Well, I forgive her, so out to the deck with a hammock and a bottle of bubbly to read The Benefactor.

    I loved this read Liv and Ben. Yeah. My favorite. I am going to purchase the rest of the books in this series. I loved how calm Ben was even when he was angry he was sexy. Go Nana!

    This is the first book in a trilogy and does end with a cliffhanger so make sure you have the other 2 ready to go! Oof what a slowburn but that made it all the much better when it finally happens. I loved the way they met, was definitely original. Full of intrigue and action it keeps you on your toes. The chemistry between Ben and Livvy was palpable and I loved that all she could hold her own. The world Nana creates makes you want to know more about all the character so thankfully another character gets the next series (def jumping ahead of myself since I still need to read the next 2 parts of this haha). Very interested to know what happens next and I’m sure it’ll be a great ride.

    Big Ben is just the beginning of this fantastic trilogy! This book is filled with interesting characters, the perfect amount of steamy moments mixed with suspense and intrigue and a plot that will keep you engaged and coming back for more! Livy gets caught up in the danger with a chance encounter with Ben and her life is now turned upside down as she decides who she can trust and who wants to harm her. Ben carries a wealth of secrets and with his friends they are trying to get revenge for a lost friend and turn the tables on the Elite secret society. The one thing he didn’t count on was Livy and the impact she seems to be having in his life. There are so many secrets and moving parts going on in this book and I am excited to see where this story goes in the next books in the See No Evil trilogy!
  • A great start...

    I was already intrigued by the London Lords from other books, but I was in no way prepared for just how awesome they are! Ben and Livy’s story is the perfect intro! The friendship, the romance, the intrigue...I just cannot wait for more!
  • Good but not my favorite format

    A cute start to the story about Ben and Olivia. I’ve always loved Nana’s writing style but these series books with the “to be continued” seem to be a bit drawn out. This is the first time I’ve just felt the story was too slow. I still love the appeal of the stories and the connections to some of our old favorite characters so I will continue to be a fan. Just wishing for a better format in the future.

    This story has a bit of everything, suspense, intrigue, secret societies, and of passion. And boy does Ben and Livy bring on the passion. At first they play coy with each other, but when the fire is lit, it explodes, can’t wait to see what happens in book 2 because warning there’s a big OMG

    Big Ben and Livy have a unique meeting, which is the beginning of a unique relationship. Ben and his friends are working to take down the person they hold responsible for their friend’s death. Livy, whose dealing with her own grief and relationship issues, stumbles into the middle of the it all. Ben and Livy have great chemistry and their dialogue is always entertaining - I just wish there was more at the beginning of the book. The first half of the book seems to set up the behind the scenes story, but when the two of them are on the page together the story comes to life. I’m sure all the set up will come in handy as we get into the rest of the series. Spoiler alert...I want to know who she sees in the loft!
