I really loved this trilogy the second time around. Ilona Andrews is definitely one of my favorite authors.

Original review:
Something about Ilona Andrews' books just doesn't work for me, but I do like the setting, the plot, and the characters. ( )

Okay, this is definitely edging into bodice-ripper territory, but it's still a decent series. What's interesting is that, despite the romance element becoming more prominent, the attraction between the two main characters still isn't totally obvious to me. it's kind as if the author says, "Well, I told you she liked bad boys, so just believe it." I don't completely. Worth continuing if you enjoyed the first book as the action parts are definitely a little more exciting. ( )

White Hot by Ilona Andrews
Hidden Legacy series #2. Paranormal magic romance. Best read as part of series in order.
Nevada Baylor has a unique skill of being able to tell when someone is lying. It’s a skill that is worth millions but it is also an ability that could cost her everything, family included.
Connor Rogan is a billionaire Prime. He’s decided to protect Nevada and her family. Their romance is just beginning but the threats are real and could destroy everything they value.
It’s up to the two of them to find and destroy the enemy. Even if it’s a friend.

Suspenseful and compelling. The story goes from action to mystery, family and threats. More romance, more world building, and some threads hanging.
To be continued.
I’m looking forward to the next book in the series for some answers! ( )

...sigh...I need these two to start writing 1000 page books. I didn't want it to end and eagerly (desperately, stalkery) await the next ....whatever they write. ( )

Ok the covers of these books ARE RIDICULOUS lol but the books themselves ARE GREAT!
