I'm not one for paranormal romance, but this one had enough of the 'para' to more than balance out the romance. The Andrews team really knows their stuff and if this series gives us two books a year from them then I count us twice as lucky. Recommended to all my GR friends. Welp! Here I go again - plunging down another Urban Fantasy series! Of course, this a fantastic world to get thrown into. I love the husband/wife team Ilona Andrews. Looking forward to the next book! ps - the covers for this series are SILLY af. The is some romance included, but not a giant sex-fest. Although . . . I would NOT object to a sex-fest involving Conor Rogan :) Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews Hidden Legacy series book 1. Paranormal magic / alternative history romance. Nevada Baylor is a detective for her family’s business. She has accepted a case, under threat, to capture and bring home to his mother, a Prime magic user, Adam Pierce. He can set anyone or anything on fire and he’s running with a “bad” crowd. Connor “Mad” Rogan is after the same man as Nevada. He has his own unique powers and decides to kidnap Nevada so she’ll help him. She can tell when people are telling the truth. He can use her in interrogating anyone that may know how to find Adam. Nevada and Mad Rogan track Adam while playing off each other a bit antagonistically and then more intimately. He’s hot. She skeptical. Now they need to find Adam and stop him before he finds them. Rogan is an antihero. Dark, underhanded, and determined. Nevada is a straight shooter and protective of her family. These two opposing characters need to meld their skills. It’s amusing and dark at the same time. Her family adds a lot more quirkiness to the mix. Excerpt of a partial conversation between Nevada and Rogan: “Did you send an escort with my family?” “Yes, they’re a target.” “Thank you.” “I plan to hold them hostage until you sleep with me.” I stumbled. He turned and gave me a brilliant, impossibly handsome smile. “Just kidding.” Damn it. This has me laughing out loud! I had to stop reading to make a note of it. He was kidding. Kind of. A magic world ala Heroes or a Batman quasi world. Fun, dark, and involved with unique abilities. I can’t wait to continue this series. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

For one thing, I had a hard time taking characters with names like "Nevada" and "Mad Rogan" seriously. (That's very much a me thing though.) More to the point, I couldn't get into the discussion of various types of guns and weaponry. I get that it males sense for the plot, but I zoned out once bullets or caliber were on the page.
Still, I did enjoy the overall plot and I'm intrigued enough to seek out the next book in the series. After all, I've yet to meet a book by Ilona Andrews that I didn't enjoy at least a bit!
I received this book in a Goodreads Giveaway but it is my own unbiased review. ( )
