This one has the most fun plot so far, and I really love this family. Lina and Alessandro are good team, but they didn't spend much time together in the first half of the book. Bern and Runa are amazing together, and I want Leon series now.

I also want to screech at men that don’t take no for an answer until they wither and die

I just cannot say anything bad about this series. This is my favorite Ilona Andrews series, and it keeps getting better. Catalina is a very sidelined character for the first few books but she’s really shined in this book and the last. And I love how they write this slow burn relationships. Worth the wait with Alessandro.

I love this series, although I really would prefer reading about Nevada and Connor. I just don't care as much about Catalina and Alessandro, but I do love being in this world, and I didn't want to leave it. As long as Ilona Andrews keeps writing, I'll keep reading.

The first 3 books (some issues but ok) but this book destroyed the series for me. It painted Nevada as stupid (the combination code and excision) and Catalina as a child presenting to be an adult with a lone hero complex. I almost didn’t finish it. Also, they can take on huge shadowy organizations but not Victoria? BS. Also, I feel in a universe where you have illusionists, a video wouldn’t be enough to incriminate anyone. Very weak back plot. I’m not sure I’ll be able to go on with the series which is sad because this and Kate Daniels were favs of mine...maybe I’m just too old now or it.
