I can not possibly do this series justice with my description. Ilona Andrews has created an intensely gripping and sexy series with The Hidden Legacy. WHITE HOT is the second book in the series, you have to read it. Nevada and Rogan are quickly becoming my favorite couple. The supporting cast of characters just keep getting better and better. The storyline is enthralling and you quickly realize that you will not be putting WHITE HOT down anytime soon. The world created by Ilona Andrews is both deadly and fascinating. If you enjoy paranormal romance, urban fantasy or just a good story there is no way you should miss this series, it's just so damn good.

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 …
