Absolutely loved this book. I love the alternate universe Ilona has created in modern day Houston, TX. The magic that is a part of their life is not like the usual kind you read in novels, and that just gives the book an little something unique. Those who have magic are placed into classifications according to the level and strength of the magic the have. I also love the fact that there are "Houses" of those are well known Primes. What I admire the most is Nevada herself. She has her morals and limits and doesn't let herself be bullied or blackmailed into breaking them. She is such a firm and strong character in her convictions and had such an honest, upfront personality that is completely endearing. Definitely recommend this book (and author) to everyone. Can NOT wait for the next book in the series White Hot!
