A year has passed since superstar Winter and secret agent Sydney Cossette went undercover – on a dangerous mission to bring down the baddest man in London.
Winter hasn’t stopped thinking about Sydney since, and she’s been trying not to think about him
Family secrets and nasty newspapers has Winter desperate to re-enter the secret world. And it’s not long before he gets his chance.
Sydney is back, and this time the mission goes right to the heart of the United States of America. A rescue gone wrong, an assassination attempt – and the return of an old flame – puts Winter right back into the action . . . and into a country on the brink of chaos.
And when a murder accusation has Sydney on the run, suddenly it’s not just a life at stake, but all-out war.

Marie Lu does no wrong in my book. I love how her books have constant action and tension ripping through each page. Icon and Inferno is no exception. It is high-stakes, fast-moving, and intense. I flew through this one faster than the bullets flying at Winter and Sydney.
I loved watching Winter and Sydney pushed back together and rooted for them so hard along the way. Suspense is weaved through every emotion and something is always keeping them on edge yet their pull towards each other is so strong. The spice is somewhat upped in this installment, and I was here for it.
“Grief is love. It’s the price we pay for the gift of someone meaningful in our lives.”
I am not sure if this series is a duology or there will be more… but I want to keep living in this world forever and honestly I’m still hoping for a little more for our leading duo. This is the second in the series, so if you haven’t picked up Stars and Smoke definitely start there. You will not regret it!
