This is a big strength of Ilona Andrews’ books: the love story at the core is always one I root for to no end and this one is my favourite so far. I sped through it in record time and I am just so very invested in their relationship. But she is still wonderfully strong and principled and Rogan starts developing a proper personality. ![]() ![]() Again, she butts heads with Rogan, and again she is in over her head. Set soon after the events of the first book, the mystery around the conspiracy deepens, when Nevada is hired to find the killers of Cornelius Harrison’s wife. And the male love interest did not make me want to claw my eyes out. I like that she has a loving and stable family, I found her strength wonderful, especially because she isn’t prickly, she is just no non-sense. I adore female PIs in urban fantasy and Nevada is just a wonderful character overall. Nevada Baylor is the head of a family led PI firm and gets drawn into house politics in general and Mad Rogan’s world in specific. ![]() As these powers are genetic, Houses with specific powers have emerged and changed human society in lots of different ways, subtly and overt. I adore the world they have created here: some time in the last two hundred years a serum was discovered that led to people developing magic powers. I needed something fast paced and fun and have been relying on the Andrews to deliver just this. ![]()
