Review: Sapphire Flames by Ilona Andrews
What I love best in this series is the interaction and love in the Baylor Family. And once again that comes through loud and clear in this book. I had a lot of high hopes going into this book and almost all of them were fulfilled -- which is a great thing! (just think how many times have you gone to the movies or read a book with high expectations, only to have them all dashed! That is by far the more common IME) And the move to Catalina POV (from Nevada in previous books) was well done too. I really feel for Catalina, possibly even more than I did for Nevada. My one caveat would be that I feel the romance was a little too over the top for 2 people who have barely interacted. It was apparently love at first tweet -- ok, I am being a bit facetious there but it just strikes me as especially ironic since one of the themes of the book seems to be that the public figure is not the private figure (i.e everyone has secrets). But don't let that stop you from reading this book -- because the interactions in this star crossed love was just another home run. And lastly, I've just got to add that the authors seemed to be hint dropping all over the place in this one -- it will be interesting to see if it all plays out the way the hints seem to be leading us.
