4.5 STARS

Let me say two things before I give my review.  First off, I have read quite a few of the stories in this series and and enjoyed every one. Whenever I see another story come up, I'm quick to grab it. 

Second of all, I adore the beautiful eBook covers that  are chosen and this one is no exception. 

Okay that said I also enjoyed the story a lot.  Of course having followed Mad Rogan and Nevada's on and off romance, it was a welcome story about their wedding.  Sure, I would have liked to see more of the two together but this is where her sister Catalina has to step up.  Also her sister Arabella is in the story but she's not as front and center.  But she does intrigue me.

There is plenty of action, mysteries and double dealings.  What a family the Rogan's have, and that's not a compliment.  There's a whole lot of secrets that they are hiding.  There is also quite a few of them and at first it took me a bit to keep them sorted out.  But it was worth it.

I found Mad Rogan's mother quite an interesting character.  But I don't want to give anything away about her.  

 Catalina has quite the struggle when it comes to the use of her powers because for years she has had to keep them hidden.   But when it comes to family (and especially Nevada) like the book blurb says, she will do what she has to do.

The story comes has a good ending.  Well, not so good for any "bad guys".
