Just when Nevada Baylor has finally come to accept the depths of her magical powers, she also realizes she’s fallen in love. Connor “Mad” Rogan is in many ways her equal when it comes to magic, but she’s completely out of her elements when it comes to her feelings for him. To make matters more complicated, an old flame comes back into Rogan’s life…

Rogan knows there’s nothing between him and his ex-fiance, Rynda Sherwood. But as Nevada begins to learn more about her past, her power, and her potential future, he knows she will be faced with choices she never dreamed of and the promise of a life spent without him.

As Nevada and Rogan race to discover the whereabouts of Rynda’s kidnapped husband and are forced to confront Nevada’s grandmother, who may or may not have evil motives, these two people must decide if they can trust in each other or allow everything to go up in smoke.

I just want to yell out “I FREAKING LOVED THIS BOOK”.

I’ve mentioned before my deep and utter love for anything Ilona Andrews writes and this is no different. I just knew we were going to get wrapped up a bit with the Rogan’s ex-fiance thing. I think Nevada did really well dealing with her feelings when it came to Rynda. I, on the other hand, wanted to rip her face off. The whole job Nevada is working on is finding Rynda’s husband, but her familiarity with Rogan made me instantly dislike her.

During Nevada’s job to find Rynda’s husband, she also has to deal with a grandmother who is determined to get to her. Between the two, Wildfire takes us on a ride of action in a series of attacks. We also can’t forget the cult storyline that has been going on right from the beginning and was left open-ended with the death of Rynda’s mother in White Hot.

I love how this book takes you from storyline to storyline without missing a beat. I felt like I was in a whirlwind with Nevada and all that was going on in her life. Rogan’s approach to letting Nevada find her own way, no matter how much he wanted to just hide her away and fix (kill) everything threatening her, was so great. It was so good to see an alpha hero allow himself to step back and let the heroine be just as alpha and kick ass.

I’m trying to keep this review short instead of going through every scene that I loved and totally fangirling for paragraphs. I will just say Wildfire is thrilling, exciting and the romance will make your heart swoon. The ending kind of made it feel like we could continue on in the series, despite my thought that this is just a trilogy. I know I would jump at the chance to read another Nevada and Rogan book. As usual, Renee Raudman does an incredible job with this book. Has she won an award yet? She needs an award!
