From Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author, the thrilling conclusion to her Hidden Legacy series, as Nevada and Rogan grapple with a power beyond even their imagination… relationship. Yes, the billionaire Prime is helping her navigate the complex magical world in which she’s become a crucial player—and sometimes a pawn—but she also has to deal with his ex-fiancée, whose husband has disappeared, and whose damsel-in-distress act is wearing very, very thin.
Rogan faces his own challenges, too, as Nevada’s magical rank has made her a desirable match for other Primes. Controlling his immense powers is child’s play next to controlling his conflicting emotions. And now he and Nevada are confronted by a new threat within her own family. Can they face this together? Or is their world about to go up in smoke?

Looking forward to the next book in this series. I’ve read each book twice!
Wildfire is the third book in the Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews. Touted as the final book in the Hidden Legacy series, many a fan-girl have extremely high hopes pinned on a mere 400 and some pages. Can it be possible? Can the dynamic writing duo tagged Ilona Andrews give us what we need? What we crave, by the gods, even desire?
The answer is unequivocally YES.
Wildfire delivers and then some.
This series is a constant timeline, each book pretty much picking up right
where the last left off. We find Nevada embroiled in the middle of a serious family
matter that must be attended to, while the devious authors spin out the plot
for this book, smacking us squarely in the face with the ultimate possible relationship
killer, the lovely ex-girlfriend. Nevada and Rogan (we are now on an intimate
enough level to drop the Mad from time to time, but have no fear, he never lets
us forget it) are finally on stable ground with their relationship goals, or so
we think, when trouble comes to town in the form of a wicked Grandmother. I do
suppose that it is only fair that if we have such an incredible character as Grandma
Frieda we can only have a counterbalance of one spawned by Satan himself, in
the form of Victoria Tremaine.
The complex and interwoven plots that run through the story are mostly three fold. We face our family issues, our case to be solved and the larger story arc of discovering the identity of a person we come to call Caesar. By the end of the book I have created an entire subplot of characters walking around whispering “Hail Caesar” in a fashion worthy of any “Hail Hydra” meme to date. While I am loath to offer spoilers of any kind I will say this, book 3 in no way slams the door on this world. We are given an extremely satisfying end, closing out any questions we have at this time. Though I am certain that soon after reading for the 4th time you will find a few to explore, the real squee worthy moment is in the final page, when we see from Caesar’s POV that the authors are indeed NOT DONE WITH THIS WORLD. **insert fainting fangirls here**
While I find that all of Ilona’s books are well written and have complex, well developed characters and fast paced plots, this series holds my heart a little tighter than the rest. I spare no shame for my constant fangirl appreciation of their Innkeeper series, a world I willingly would move to Red Deer, Texas, to be a forever guest within the Gertrude Hunt, But Mad Rogan and Nevada somehow just seep into my soul. Something about these two resonates with me soundly. Whether it is Nevada’s logical yet very real approach to emotional triggers regarding things such as jealously, stress, relationships or just life in general, or Mad Rogan’s fiercely hard fought for loyalty I can’t say, but I will tell you this book just does it for me. If there are only 5 stars to give, I will steal some from others just so they can have 7. Read it, but start at book 1. While all of Ilona’s books could be read out of order, there is just no reason to not start at step one. It is worth the effort of a thousand steps to be a part of the journeys end.
I would rate it much higher but for the porn scenes that are repeating in many books. To me they really spoil otherwise good books
This book picks up immediately after book 2 (Wild Hot). These books definitely need to be read in order, but I can’t recommend this series enough. Ilona Andrews has an amazing imagination. They just top themselves with each book. Their writing gets better and better.
The pacing is off the charts in this and it’s very plot-driven, although the Andrews have a magical way of making even their supporting characters come to life with only a few scenes/lines. I don’t know how they do it. I love EVERY single character in this, even the “bad guys.”
Though I find this true of all Ilona Andrews books and series. Must Read!!!
I hope the trilogy is expanded, so I find out what happens next, and what the various family members end up doing. And what happens with Rogan and Nevada. Loved the trilogy!
Good addition to good series. The magic forms, or talents, are diverse and fresh, yet they form a plausible network of abilities. Minor characters, particularly granny and her tank, are well-developed, often with just a few words. Imagery is strong and again consistent within the framework. Even better, we never lose sight of Navada, Rogan and the survival of the family which is Nevada’s mission. Well-done!
Absolutely love this series
This is one of my favorite series in this genre. Ilona Andrews usually does a great job but this and The Edge series are just fan-frickin-tastic!
Don’t judge a book by the cover. Maybe it’s just me but the cover seem to promise a generic romance heavy book with typical plot and characters. This book and series is anything but that. The heroine (Nevada) can take care of herself just fine and is definitely powerful but it doesn’t hurt that her guy (Rogan) has aliases that strikes fear and awe into people. Ilona Andrews does a great job putting Nevada in situations where she has to use her own strength to resolve an issue instead of always relying on Rogan to save the day.
This book continues the story started in the previous two books of this series (though none of the books are cliff hangers). I feel like the plot moves faster this book and there’s more action because the world and most the characters have been established by previous books. So I would highly recommend you read the previous two books before this one (they are awesome as well).
