Book Review:: Wildfire | Ilona Andrews

This is the third book in the Hidden Legacy series. If you’ve not read the first two books, please read this review of book one to convince you to read them 🙂 The review for White Hot (book two) can be found here.

Nevada and Rogan have finally given into the inevitability that is their love. Now, it will be tested as Nevada is asked to investigate the disappearance of Rogan’s ex-fiancée Rynda’s husband. There are many unanswered questions about this case, and it starts to seem like it’s tying into the same conspiracy that’s been plaguing them all year. Rynda is a mess, and she leans on Rogan to help her and her kids through this difficult time. At the same time, Nevada has registered to become House Baylor in order to protect her family. With that comes new dangers. Everyone’s eyes are on her, and when she’s approached with interest by another truthseeker house, Rogan steps back to make sure Nevada’s vision isn’t clouded as she’s making decisions that will dictate the rest of her life.

The rest of this review will contain some spoilers, because I just have to gush about this incredible series. Just know this is an epic conclusion, and if you’ve read the first two books, the third will certainly not disappoint. Trust me, you’ll want to keep reading, because Catalina’s trilogy after this is leveled up still further. Please, please keep reading. They’re so.fucking.good.

This is such a skillful and satisfying conclusion to Nevada’s trilogy. While her relationship with Rogan is tested again and again, hope is never lost. There is no unnecessary stress, and the trust between the two is never broken. They are tested just enough to ensure the strength of their bond, which makes their partnership all the more unbreakable.

This is the kind of romance people read romance for. Nevada and Rogan have eyes only for each other, and the trust that’s been forged between them through fire and ice and everything in between as they’ve fought so hard to survive through the trials in these books translates to their personal relationship too. They trust each other. And they’ve absolutely earned the happy union that awaits them.

Rogan is a hero’s hero. He’s driven, determined, richer-than-god, and protective while never smothering. He admires and respects Nevada, and allows her to make her own decisions. And once she makes them, accepts them, regardless of his own feelings. There’s something about the intense stakes of this series and the payoff of the made-for-each-other romance that is just magical. I’ve never read anything quite so satisfying and justified as this series.

I can’t ever go longer than a handful of months before revisiting this series in some capacity. They are a comfort read for me, in every sense of the word. I’ve never read anything like them before, and I’m convinced they’ll never be matched in quite the same way by anything else.
