About Emerald Blaze
Emerald Blaze is the fifth book in the Hidden Legacies series. It focuses on the middle sister of the Baylor family, Catalina. As Head of Houe Baylor and the Deputy Warden of Texas, she’s constantly battling attacks from both the magical and normal realms against the people she cares about.
Alessandro, the Italian playboy assassin who broke her heart, is back in town. They’re being forced to work together – can her heart take being shattered again? Can she discover what killed one of the city’s magical elite? Can she stop it before it kills again?
My thoughts about Emerald Blaze
Ilona Andrews books are always an automatic yes for me so I was excited to receive an ARC of Emerald Blaze.
Like all of the writing duo’s books, Emerald Blaze has strong main characters with crazy-hot chemistry. The non-stop action and a mysterious killer to catch make for a fast-paced read. I did NOT want to put this book down until I finished it! Hello, no sleep due to reading.
Ilona Andrews always writes characters that I care about – I get totally invested in their fictional lives which is part of why the books are auto-buys for me. I want to know what happens next but I also want to know that they’re okay. I know that the author’s going to put them through Hell, sometimes multiple times but I know that at the end, there’s a HEA that’s going to happen.
I’m enjoying watching the behind the scenes manipulations going on in the series. It’s a nice touch without being too villain-twirling-his-moustache evil.
