The Fifth Avenue Trilogy has taken us through the steps of seeking revenge for a lost friend and executed by three friends. In each book, one of them meets a woman and together they knock our villain down a peg. Expose Me centers around Alex Diaz, who has made his money building a media empire that focuses on the facts. In order to initiate the final step in revenge against Jason Treffen, he seeks help from talk-show host Chelsea Maxwell. His plans stumbles when he finds himself wanting more than just a tumble with her and Jason's downfall.

Expose Me, like the rest of the Fifth Avenue trilogy focuses more on the romance than the revenge. While I enjoyed the story, I once again found myself wishing for more balance between the two stories threads. While the author tied things up nicely, this is one instance where I would have liked a wrap-up or epilogue. Of the three novels Expose Me was my favorite because of Chelsea and Alex. Both are remarkable characters and their chemistry felt genuine. I loved their banter, and the chess game these two powerhouses played as they tried to manhandle each other. What made them click for me was how Hewitt exposed their soft underbellies and made them vulnerable.
