Product Information
Adele's supernatural roller-coaster ride continues at breakneck speed. --RT Book Reviews Tormented by the fate she condemned her mother to, and by the lies she's forced to tell to cover it up, Adele scours Storm-ravaged New Orleans for the truth about her family's magical past. But every turn leads her back to the one person she's determined to forget: the vampire Niccolò Medici. Not even the bewitched locks trapping him can break their connection. Sensing Niccolò calling to Adele, Isaac tries relentlessly to keep her from exploring paths that would endanger them all. But a new threat is rising in New Orleans--an older enemy that will bring Isaac's haunted past to life, test the witches' friendships, and jeopardize Adele and Isaac's blossoming relationship. In this spellbinding continuation of The Casquette Girls saga, Adele delves into seventeenth-century Florence--a time bubbling with alchemy and fraternal betrayal. As she uncovers long-buried secrets, sorting history from fantasy will be her only hope of saving her mother, her coven, and her magic.Product Identifiers

Reviews"This detailed and descriptive sequel is every bit as engrossing as the first, with deftly drawn character arcs and a captivating setting." -- School Library Journal "In this sequel to The Casquette Girls (2013), teen witches Adele and Isaac grow closer while fresh evil descends upon flood-ravaged New Orleans. The author continues to woo culture and history mavens, adding vivid New Orleans color (the funeral procession) and plenty of post-hurricane detail (such as Isaac's grim recovery work, so similar to that carried out after Katrina). Warm, carefully drawn characters are the story's main attraction. A meticulous blend of witchery, New Orleans lore, and teen angst." -- Kirkus Reviews "Fans will be floored by The Romeo Catchers , the much-anticipated follow up to The Casquette Girls . An intense dreamscape of a read full of magic, menace, and mystery." --Tonya Hurley, New York Times bestselling author of the ghostgirl series and the Blessed trilogy "Adele's supernatural roller-coaster ride continues at breakneck speed, with shocking revelations along the bloodstained way. Rich descriptions of post-storm New Orleans as well as a variety of vivid secondary characters create a lush background, allowing this extraordinary story to thrive. Readers will be enchanted and horrified in turn as Arden plunges them into a sudden, unpredictable cliffhanger that will leave them as stunned as her characters." --RT Book Reviews
