Haven't read it yet so don't know what the particulars are, but I will say that when she writes a trilogy with a different h/h in each book, the romance will have a satisfying conclusion but the overarching plot may very well include a cliffhanger.
On the rarer instances where she writes a trilogy with the same h/h throughout all three books both the plot and relationship could possibly end on a cliffhanger.
Then again, eveyone's definition of a cliffhanger can be different. There are some books where readers diagree on rather or not the ending is a cliffhanger.
So I would yes, warn people of the cliffhanger in your review.
But at heart she is still a romance writer so the romance(s) and overall storyarc will be tied up by the end of the third book.
