From Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author, the thrilling conclusion to her Hidden Legacy series, as Nevada and Rogan grapple with a power beyond even their imagination...Nevada Baylor can't decide which is more frustrating-harnessing her truthseeker abilities or dealing with Connor "Mad" Rogan and their evolving relationship. Yes, the billionaire Prime is helping her navigate the complex magical world in which she's become a crucial player-and sometimes a pawn-but she also has to deal with his ex-fiancee, whose husband has disappeared, and whose damsel-in-distress act is wearing very, very thin. Rogan faces his own challenges, too, as Nevada's magical rank has made her a desirable match for other Primes. Controlling his immense powers is child's play next to controlling his conflicting emotions. And now he and Nevada are confronted by a new threat within her own family. Can they face this together? Or is their world about to go up in smoke?
Ok, I'm going to go on record here with my prediction for Caesar's true identity:
Linus Duncan. Because he is both the least likely and the most devastating. Also, he's mentioned in earlier books and earlier in this book, that he dislikes being bored.
(hide spoiler)
Of course, there would have to be a fourth book published in order to find out if I'm right, and that's not a given at this point. Still it's fun to speculate.
There's a lot going on in this book - it's action packed and there are revelations galore, including finding out what Arabella actually is. But even though it's a neck-and-neck race, I think I liked the second book better (White Hot). The narrative felt smoother, more coherent. Wildfire was just... chaotic. Fun, highly entertaining chaos, but chaos. And I really didn't like all that nonsense with Rynda, and I'm not convinced it was in any way necessary. But I loved Zeus. I'd have liked to have seen a lot more Zeus - and (Sergeant?) Teddy. But mostly Zeus.
Here's hoping Avon will wake up and smell the coffee and a fourth book is just around the corner.
