WHITE HOT is the apropos title of book 2 in the
Hidden
Legacy series by Ilona Andrews. This writing
duo consists of spouses Ilona and Gordon Andrews, and they
can do no authorial wrong in my eyes. I adore everything
they have published, and somehow, each book continues to be
even better than the one before. You'd think that
eventually everyone has to top out somewhere, but Ilona and
Gordon show no evidence of that. I got my hands on an
Advance Reader Copy of White Hot at Romantic Times 2017 in
Atlanta, and I wanted to immediately stop attending the
rest of the convention to gleefully devour this book in my
hotel room-these books are just THAT good.
Andrews' other series are Urban Fantasy (for example,
Kate
Daniels, one of the best series out there ever,
in my opinion!), but the Hidden
Legacy series is a
little heavier on the romance, making it a paranormal
romance rather than straight up paranormal. Andrews pumps
up the sex scenes, titillating for those of us used to the
slightly lower level of steaminess of Andrews' Urban
Fantasy style.
Private eye Nevada Baylor is trying to hold her family's
investigation agency together. She reluctantly worked with
Connor Rogan, aka Mad Rogan, on a prior case in book 1,
BURN FOR
ME. While she's powerfully attracted to the
billionaire who is a Prime- the highest level of magic
user, she's trying to resist what she feels Is a fatal
attraction. When a new case brings her back into Rogan's
orbit, she swallows her resentment and works with this
mesmerizing man to help her client find his wife's
murderer. I love Nevada's prickliness and Rogan's alpha
maleness that is slowly being tempered under Nevada's
influence. With lush worldbuilding and fantastic
characters, WHITE HOT is a gripping read that keeps me
panting for more.
Nevada Baylor has a unique and secret skill—she knows
when people are lying—and she's used that magic (along
with plain, hard work) to keep her colorful and close-
knit family's detective agency afloat. But her new case
pits her against the shadowy forces that almost destroyed
the city of Houston once before, bringing Nevada back
into contact with Connor "Mad" Rogan.
Rogan is a billionaire Prime—the highest rank of magic
user—and as unreadable as ever, despite Nevada’s
“talent.” But there’s no hiding the sparks between them.
Now that the stakes are even higher, both professionally
and personally, and their foes are unimaginably powerful,
Rogan and Nevada will find that nothing burns like ice …
