The Hidden Legacy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Ilona Andrews continues as Nevada and Rogan navigate a world where magic is the norm…and their relationship burns 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 colorful 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…

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

* Includes two bonus scenes of Rogan's point of view during Burn For Me.

Also in this series: Burn For Me

Graphic Audio: While I still prefer the original solo narration, I’m really starting to enjoy this Graphic Audio version. The voices are growing on me, and the immersive production definitely brings the story to life and adds a new layer to the world-building. The story itself remains superb!

Original Review 2017
**Spoiler Free**

White Hot is book two in the Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews.

An unforgettable and monuments adventure.

OMG! WOW! Outstanding! Yes! I want more…

I had chills reading this. It’s soooo good. Nevada is getting deeper into the mystery of who she is, deeper into the Houses world and politics, and the plot thickens. Something big is happening. When you think you have things figured out the author throws out a curveball. Nevada didn’t see or plan for some of the possibilities that arise. Now she has some hard life choices to make that will affect her and her family.

The romance was wonderful. Her relationship with Conner is changing in a big way and she starts to see him in a different light. I loved seeing Conner and Nevada come together and make strides in their not so relationship, that turns into something more. Their sexual tension was strong in book one, Burn for Me, but here it lights the city up.

I have to say the epilogue, girl squeal! And the end, OMG the author drops a big bomb.

As always the Andrews team delivered a sensational story. White Hot is packed full. Their is no shortage of action, plot, humor, and romance. This whole book will keep you on your toes, throw curveballs at you, and at the end all you want is more, more, more. All I wanted to do was read the book all over again. I’m on pins and needles waiting for the last and final installment, Wildfire.

Rated: 5 Stars

Audio 2020: Renée Raudman is spectacular in her narration. The audio was amazing! I laughed out load and I felt more and noticed more with the narration. Highly recommend the audio for the Hidden Legacy series.
