My Review: 5/5 Stars
I love the Hidden Legacy series. It's probably my favorite by Ilona Andrews (though I could also argue that the Kate Daniels series is my favorite too. The type of world created when it comes to magic and those who possess it are so interesting. This novella is a bridge that will begin the next part of the series that will follow Catalina. The sister of Nevada, who was the heroine of the first three books. Catalina is best described as having the powers of a siren. When she uses her magic, those affected will instantly adore her and want to possess her. It's an ability she does not like because she can never tell if anyone likes her for who she is or if it the magic that is forcing them. The only ones who are safe from her magic are her family.
The novella follows Catalina as she coordinates her sister's wedding. That slowly proves to be more difficult than one can possibly imagine. She soon finds herself trying to find a priceless tiara and the suspects are her sister's soon to be husband's family. Catalina discovers that the family has a lot more buried dirty secrets than anyone could have predicted. And on top of all that, someone is trying to kill the bride and groom by tampering with catering. Catalina has her hands full. And she proves to be excellent under pressure and we are given a glimpse of who she will become. Catalina is only 18 in this book and the next book will jump to her in her 20s. I am looking forward to seeing how Catalina's character will develop. How she will choose to master her powers. And of course see what she will do with a certain Italian named Alessandro. Absolutely loved this story. Can't wait for the next one!
