Hi Cara,
Before I started blogging, I read the first book in the Hidden Legacy books Burn for me. So finally I have got around to reading (listening too) White Hot.
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 colourful 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 …
(Synopsis from Goodreads.com)
White Hot is streamingly hot.
White hot, mixes Magic, Murder, Conspiracy and romance to bring an interesting and compelling story.
The romantic element between Mad Rogan and Nevada brings lots of drama and some very hot moments. Sometimes I did get a little annoyed with Nevada reaction to Rogan protectedness meddling. But my crush on Connor ‘Mad’ Rogan, may colour opinion.
Ilona Andrews has given White Hot some great quotes, and funny moments. Below are my favourites.
“I’m Mr.Ripped. I live in the gym. My teeth have biceps and my biceps have teeth. I chew up weights and shit out lead bricks. “
“There were bags under my eyes and they weren’t Prada.”
(Best way to describe bags under the eyes)
“I can be a good dragon, hen the occasion requires it.”
“I squinted at here. ‘You’re an adult.’ ‘You’re an adult oo.” “But you’re an older adult. You’ve had more practice.” Mom leaned back and laughed.”
(Very true, adults always looking for someone that more of an adult when problems arise.)
One of my favourite elements of White Hot is Nevada family. He sisters and Grandma noisiness about Nevada and Rogan. There magic abilities. Also ho deadly the Grandma and Mom are.
The murder mystery element of the book is really interesting as its murder by magic, and that there more to the murder than originally thought.
Other favourite elements are magic action/ fight scenes. You have the normal hand to hand fighting. Then you have the fights where cars are broken in to and thrown. Roads are iced up, building walls are blown out.
If you like urban fantasy with romance and mystery then you should pick up White Hot.
My rating for White Hot is 4.5 out of 5
