"Bloodline Arcana: Whenever you cast an evocation
spell, targets that fail their saves are dazzled by tiny
sparkling starlights for 1 round per level of the spell. "
The sorc in our group assumed this to mean that if there was no saving throw to be had, it counted as an automatic fail, and therefore this feature worked all the time. What say you, learned folk? :)

If there's no saving throw, there's nothing for them to fail.
You have to use evocation spells that have saving throws.
Burning Hands works, Magic Missile doesn't.
Otherwise you're dazzling yourself when you cast Light or Contingency, or dazzling your contacts when you use Sending.

Saving Throw - "None: No saving throw is allowed."
That was my response, just wanted clarification. Cheers :)
