About the author
K.L. Phelps
11 books54 followersK.L. Phelps never wanted to be a cop, fireman or baseball player. He fell in love with books at a very early age and (aside from the summer of 1977 when he wanted to be Luke Skywalker) he never wanted to be anything other than a writer. Somehow he took a left when he should have gone right (or write) and spent 17+ years as an oncology nurse. He is now back to pursuing this childhood dream. Thriller, suspense, mysteries, paranormal, humor/comedy, there are very few genres that don't interest him and he intends to take a crack at them all.

Great series
I have enjoyed this series so far. The first three books had me laughing so hard at times, that it was hard to catch my breath. Thank you for such great entertainment.

can’t stop laughing
And crying at the same time. Hard to classify this series lol mystery, comedy, romance but it’s all tied in a beautiful bow of well written characters you can’t help but to love.

Worth it
This has quench my burning thirst for answers of what happened in vegas. And although some part of me is bothered by the fact that Kat was essentially under the influence ( I won't spoil book and say what substance) her entire time in this book. I did have fun reading all of the sheninagans that went down. One of my favorite parts of the series however is going to be the author's note. K.L. Phelps keep them coming.
For anyone into urban supernatural fiction, a bit of romance, and drama. I recommend this book. Other than the mystery of the where abouts of some woman. This story is the answer to the mystery many of us have been pondering since finishing book one.

Thank you!
I absolutely love your books! Thank you for finally talking about Vegas. I knew somewhere along the line you intended to tell this story and now that you have, I understand Kat so much better and the relationship she has with Jonny. I hope after the end of this series that you'll create many characters with as much vigor as you've brought Kat and her strange family to life. I wish you all the best in your ventures and hope to read more by you. You are becoming my favorite author. Keep writing!

The ultimate gain and the ultimate loss all in one lost weekend
Terrific! If you had any questions about what happened in Vegas then this book starts to answer them. It isn't really a cozy mystery in the strictest sense but a love story in the flavour of Romeo and Juliette. A girl's trip to the lights of Vegas turns into a trip for two that has death, magic, love and the ultimate loss at it's heart. Will all survive to tell the tale? Will Jonny's role be explained? A wonderful read.

Read the first 3 books first
It is seldom as important in cozy mysteries that they be read in order, but if you haven’t read the first three books first, you will miss a lot of this one. This book is more descriptive- which wasn’t my favorite thing - and less fun/funny as the previous books, but it does answer the question “What Happened in Vegas?” A good read, but not as good IMHO as book 3.

Another Awesome Book
This is where the past begins to make sense through the first few books. Yes, I zeroed in on the revelation previously. This book rounds out many connections and motives. Excellent Read. On to the next!

Now we know...something
A very different type of story than the earlier books but much needed backstory. I did catch a hint of the plot in Mind if I Come In but the character development fills in the blanks. Looking forward to learning more in Waking.

Wow
I was worried the author wouldn't be able to pull it off after giving us so many veiled hints about what happened in Vegas. But she did it. Great story!

Interesting book
I really enjoyed reading this book with its well-developed characters involved in an interesting and ever-twisting plot. No sex but a bit of violence..

Finally...
At least I know the beginnings of what happened in Vegas! And I can't wait to get to the next book to find out the rest of the Vegas story.

An Amazing Kat Parker Novel
This is my favorite Kat Parker novel so far. It's on a way deeper level and explained a lot about Kat's past. I can't wait to continue her story.

So many surprises
Just Wow! This book answers many of the questions about what happened to Kat in Vegas. To say the book had unexpected twist and turns is a hugh understatement.

Finally we get the backstory of Kat's increasing supernatural skills and some more of her family history.
Her mother warned her not to go. It was supposed to be a carefree girls' weekend in Vegas, but what Katrina got was magic, murder, and mayhem.
Swept off her feet by cute but geeky wizard Andrew Parker, Kat is caught in an age-old feud between vampires and lycans. The problem? If things go wrong, it could mean not only the end of her life, but every life in Vegas.

We finally find out What Happened in Vegas!
I enjoyed finding out the details of the Vegas trip and why Jonny and Kat don't remember anything! I was sad to lose some characters that I had grown to like very much in this book, but it isn't like I didn't know SOMETHING was going to happen to them! I'd like to see more of Francine...I have a feeling she's keys to something. Excuse me while I go read the next book!

I have read and enjoyed the exploits, adventures of Kat Morris Parker, in this volume 4 of the series the author takes us back to where it all started in Vegas.
I didn’t need the back story, I prefer the mystery, in fact it has ruined a couple of the characters for me. Skimmed most of it because I just didn’t want to read it.

It is slightly different reading a book that you already vaguely know the plot of and the main ending. That combined with a tad too much fantasy for my taste put me off a little but I like Kat and co enough thT I will carry on reading the series.

The first book I read from this author was Mind if I Come In? It was a good book, but it kept referring to things that had happened in Vegas and I felt that I had missed out on a book (but I hadn't). Apparently Ms. Phelps had other readers who wanted to know what happened in Vegas, so she wrote this book. Wow! Vegas was a wild time! It was an unusual book with a sweet romance that had disturbing undercurrents. The paranormal aspects were great and the story was gripping. I wish Kat could remember all that went on. I plan to go back and revisit the earlier books in this series with my knowledge of What Happened in Vegas now in my memory.
