"Now I have something to prove to you," he said. "I promise you, I will win, and by the time I'm done, you won't walk, you'll run to jump into my bed."

I have been waiting for this book for so long and it's finally here and it was so good. I will read anything that Ilona Andrews writes, because the story is always amazing with great plot, dialogue and characters you will love.

In this new world, it is all about the magic and our heroine Nevada Baylor is forced to take on a assignment that is "Now I have something to prove to you," he said. "I promise you, I will win, and by the time I'm done, you won't walk, you'll run to jump into my bed."

I have been waiting for this book for so long and it's finally here and it was so good. I will read anything that Ilona Andrews writes, because the story is always amazing with great plot, dialogue and characters you will love.

In this new world, it is all about the magic and our heroine Nevada Baylor is forced to take on a assignment that is extremely dangerous and one where she may die where she is searching for fire starter, Adam Pierce, but if she doesn't she and her family loose everything. Mad Rogan is also looking for Adam for entirely different reasons. He kidnapps Nevada to gain any and all information she has on Adam, but Nevada is one tough cookie and won't give in to this man, and so they work together to get Adam Pierce.

“You seem to be under the impression that I work for you and you can give me orders. Let me fix that." I hung up.”

I loved our heroine Nevada Taylor, she the typical Ilona Andrews heroine. She's somewhat normal and would do anything for her family and to keep them safe, and she's totally bad ass at times. And wants to be with someone who loves her or will truly care for me, but she finds herself wildly attracted to Mad Rogan who she doesn't want to start a relationship with at all.Well, Mad Rogan plans to win that battle with Nevada and have her.

Mad Rogan is kinda a sociopath, but one of those good sociopath's you want to love. He has this idea where he does not follow the law. He basically is the law, if he decides someone is threatening him and he finds them annoying he will kill them, and that is not okay with Nevada. But in someway Nevada brings in strength and light to him in his darkest moments and he is very attracted to her and declares he will win her at any cost.

"I just realized I shouldn't be in the same vehicle with you. In fact, I shouldn't have called you in the first place, so I'm trying very hard to rewind time." He grinned. I"ve amused the dragon. Whee.

In Ilona Andrew's Kate Daniels series I really enjoyed the run and chase, sexual tension, and "I will make you mine" part of the series, and I am looking forward to that in the Hidden Legacy series as well. For me, it's the best part of books like these. So I am being tortured waiting for next book in this series and I cannot wait to get more Nevada and Mad Rogan. ...more

While no author (or in this case, team) is perfect, this is the third Ilona Andrews series (along with Kate Daniels and The Edge) for which I will be eagerly awaiting the next installment. Don't fret the bodice ripper cover, this is pure paranormal urban fantasy with enough paranormal romance on the side to keep it fun. Grandma repairs tanks in the garage while Mom and her sniper rifle hang in the crow's nest as part of a well rounded and entertaining ensemble of supporting characters. Primes ar ...more

Struggled to keep an interest in the story & characters:
I love Kate Daniel’s & my favorite is the Innkeeper Chronicles. Thought I’d like this series, but nope, just not for me.

It was amazing. I cannot wait for the next book.
Is far more romantic oriented than Kate Daniels and Innkeeper but I really like Nevada and her family. I love that there's really no love triangle, and that Adam Pierce is treated as the douchebag he is, where in any other romantic book it would be the hero.

Nevada is intelligent and resourceful, she doesn't take any crap and she is a coherent character. But it's not the female characters that are a problem for Ilona Andrews, if anything I could cr ...more

Nevada and Mad/Connor

Adam Pierce is burning places in Huston. P. I. Nevada is forced to take on the task of capturing Adam alive and taking him back to his Family/House.

Mad Rogan starts out looking for Adam but find following Nevada maybe an easier way to find Adam.

Mad and Nevada reluctantly work together to try and figure out what Adam is doing and set out to catch him.

Love this story and couple. I’m immediately starting the next book in the series.

This was a rare miss from Ilona Andrews. I had high hopes for this book, but honestly nothing about this story was all that interesting to me. I had to struggle to finish it. I didn't care for any of the characters, especially Nevada and Mad Rogan, and I didn't connect with their chemistry at all. Nevada was a boring character and Mad Rogan read like a Curran knockoff. ...more
