Audiobook: Diamond Fire by Ilona Andrews

I got a chance to listen to Diamond Fire by Ilona Andrews. I really liked this novella. There are some points where it the story is a little bit awkward or a little rush, but that happens with novellas. However, I like this story, because it's a great transition from Nevada to Catalina. In Wildfire we finished Nevada and Rogan love story, and now we get their wedding. Catalina is starting to be able to understand and control her power. We get to see a her use her power to solve what is going on that might stop Rogan and Nevada wedding.

Yay! for transitions. Now I'm reading to start on Catalina's story. I might hold off on continuing on with the series at the time, because I need the complete story with Catalina and Alessandro. This way Catalina's trilogy will be done. However, I'm really enjoying the series.

Audiobook: Wildfire by Ilona Andrews

I got a chance to finish listening to Wildfire by Ilona Andrews. We are drawing an end to a couple's saga, but the mystery of who is Caesar is still a mystery; it's like one step forward, two steps back. Anyway, we have a couple of bumps in the road for Nevada and Rogan. Nevada is trying to become a house, and there are other Primes that interested in her. Another issue that has popped up is Rogan's ex-fiancé husband is missing, so she needs his help even though she hired Nevada. Rynda is annoying, and needs to find her own husband. I love how Rogan team can't stand her, and they are on Team Nevada.

Anyway, I had a lot of fun listening to this story. Don't get me wrong there's a lot of action going on in this story. The title suits the story. We get to see Nevada and Rogan claim each other, and they have no problem telling others it's going to be that way. We also get to see that recurring characters that help Rogan and Nevada solve cases. We get to see other characters that are memorable. One of my favorite is characters is Sargent Teddy the pacifist Kodiak bear. Anyway, I did enjoy Wildfire, and I can't wait to continue on with the series.

Audiobook: White Hot by Ilona Andrews

YAY! I got a chance to finish listening to White Hot by Ilona Andrews. We continue with our journey Nevada and Rogan. First off, you will need to read Burn for Me before starting this story, because at the end of the story we see them part. We know that's not the end of them, because fate has a funny way to bring them together.

At the start of White Hot, you're not quite sure they are evening going to get back together, because Rogan was stupid. We also have Nevada coming more into her power. Then trouble starts and she needs help with Rogan, but she doesn't really want to go to him. They slowly conquer their relationship issues. They are pretty big issues, and hopefully the issues will no longer be an issue. I guess I have to wait until the next book to see if they are going to make it. Ugh.

Anyway, I liked White Hot, and I can't wait for the next book. I like that we actually got to see Nevada and Rogan getting together. However, more stuff happens that make you go whoa. Yes, this story keeps you guessing, the surprise of another family member trying to do something bad. That's the only downfall with checking out from the library.
