In DeLeon’s romantic suspense novel, Joelle, the middle LeBeau sister, has arrived to fulfill her two week stay in the family mansion. Ex-marine Tyler Duhan has been hired as her bodyguard for her stay because of all the “incidents” that threatened both of her sisters during their stay. Tyler doesn’t buy into all the gossip about the “cursed and haunted” mansion but he’ll gut it out to protect her. No sooner does Joelle move into the house when she is threatened by an unidentified source and then endures a mysterious vision of her mother. Tyler is hesitant when it comes to women but even he can’t deny the strong attraction between them and the realization that falling for Joelle could well be fatal. A fabulous conclusion to the Mystere Parish: Family Inheritance series. The ending took my breath away! 4 STARS Wow this book had some twists and turns I did not expect at all. But others I figured out or guessed on. This ebook has two stories in it. I am going to review the first one Reunion then read the next one than review. So I don't blur the lines. Tyler is finally back home in Parish. He plans to open a security business soon as his license accepted by the state. His father wants him to take on protecting Joelle. The last of the three daughters to come back home and spend two weeks at the family LeBeau mansion so they can inheirit the money their mom left them after her stepfather died. I have read the first story but missed reading the second story. I enjoy reading Jana's stories. It has a bunch of mysteries in it. Ghosts, hired killers, reuniting lost sisters, romance and danger. All taking place in a big mansion off by itself in the swamp. Their is some humor, some secret passage ways and some love scenes I skipped over. Joelle has not been back home since she was 4 years old. When after her mother died her stepfather separated the three sisters to different relatives. She receives a certified letter telling her about her stepfather death and what was left for her, but all three girls have to live at the house for two weeks for them all to receiving it. Joelle has had some scary stuff happen to her lately. Her car vandalized. That a client's husband wanted to know where his ex-wife was. Joelle works with abused women as a social worker and works at a hot line. So she is willing to take off for two weeks. Joelle thinks she will be safe at her family home but finds that danger has followed her. She is grateful to see her sisters again. THE SECRET OF CYPRIERE BAYOU This second book in this ebook collection. It has some of the same features as Reunion. Their is a mystery in a haunted or cursed mansion in the bayou. The home has all these secret tunnels in them that the servants used so they were not seen. A missing girl that was supposed to have gone to the mansion. A caretaker who took off all of a sudden. Now another woman Oliva has come to the mansion. She is a writer and writes ghost stories after staying in old scary places. The people in near town warn her it is haunted, but that is what she wanted. Of course their is a storm when she comes and her car slides into a ditch. Oliva thinks someone came into her room while she was in the tub. She hurries and dresses gets her gun and heads downstairs where she heard a noise. Suddenly she is taken by surprise and her gun taken from her. John has taken the caretaker job. He had no idea someone was going to be their. He was planning to search the house till he found evidence of his missing sister. They both realize soon enough that they are not the only ones in the house. That person is up to no good. Oliva finds the secret tunnels. They are kept up pretty well. It is full of mystery and suspense right till the end. Every time things calm down something else happens. Their is one love scene that I skipped over. But I did enjoy the story and wished it did not end where it did though.

The Secret of Cypriere Bayou
This was an enjoyable and fast read, but I must say it's getting a bit repetitive: woman with strange/unknown past goes to live in a haunted house with secret passages, is attacked by somebody she pissed off and/or somebody with a connection to her past, hero comes to the rescue and they live HEA.
Still, a 7/10, but I won't be reading Jana DeLeon for a while. ( )
