The book has twist and turns that will keep you reading the book. I read this one very quickly because I just couldn't wait to see what happens next.
I liked Rosie and Devlin together.
I am giving this 4 out of 5 stars.

Moonlight Scandals by Jennifer L. Armentrout is the third and last book in the de Vincent trilogy. Rosie and Devlin start to cross their paths more often as Rosie is a friend of Nikki, Gabe's girlfriend. Both can't stand each other, but they have to collaborate. The heat between them grows, but Devlin is a dangerous man.
Okay, I was so intrigued by this book. Devlin seemed to be the worst of the de Vincent brothers and there wasn't one single thing I liked about him in the last two books. But I am a sucker for bad guys (but they have to turn out to be good people!). I wasn't so sure about Rosie at first. She seemed a bit weird, believing in the paranormal. But I grew to like her. For me, she is the strongest woman in this trilogy. In the end, she knew what Dev did and she still defended him. Devlin himself is a really bad guy. I never liked him in the previous books, but I grew to like him here. Still, I am not fond of the de Vincent brothers, because the sheer thought that I would know a person like them in my own personal life freaks me out. They are really not good people. But they love their girlfriends. And Rosie and Dev have a steamy chemistry! This book kind of is a enemies to lovers story (which I am also a sucker for).
As I said before, Jennifer L. Armentrout just does not disappoint with her books. I expected something different from this trilogy. I did not expect it to be so creepy. But it was a good trilogy. Dark, sexy and addicting. Jennifer L. Armentrout will always remain one of my favourite authors.
This book was the best book in the trilogy. Mainly because I was really intrigued by Devlin's story. Can't wait to read more by Jennifer L. Armentrout.

This was utter trash. Soap-opera, improbable, ridiculous trash. I loved it.

What kind of overly dramatic and crappy ending was that? The beginning of the book started out really well, actually, but it just got worse from then on. The ending was so rushed and made no sense at all.
Very disappointing.

This book tells the story of Devlin de Vincent and Rosie Herpin. Rosie, Nikki's friend, is introduced to us in Moonlight Seduction (Book #2). Rosie is a ghost hunter and a believer in the supernatural. Her husband killed himself 10 years ago, and she is still mourning his death. I liked the chemistry and the interactions between Rosie and Devlin. This romance felt gritty and angsty. This would be a good readalike for people who enjoy The Bourbon Kings by J. R. Ward.
Things I didn't like:
- The fact that Devlin has a secret surprise twin that appears at the end of the book to save the day.
- The reveal about Stefan actually being Lawrence (his father) took forever to uncover. There were several hints throughout this book and the previous book that Stefan was actually Lawrence.
- It is revealed that Devlin actually killed Stefan (but thought it was Lawrence) and then made it look like a suicide. It bothered me that this is not explored in more detail.
- I wanted to see more resolution between the three de Vincent brothers now that the truth about their father is revealed.
- Too much supernatural, ghost hunter jargon.
Things I liked:
- The relationship between Devlin and Rosie. They had great chemistry together. She was very strong and was not
- This book explains why the reporter is so interested in exposing the de Vincents as murderers.
- Devlin's brothers seeing how much he has done to protect them.
- Devlin opening up to Rosie and sharing how he was mistreated by Lawrence as a child. It helps explain why Devlin acted so cold and stoic.
- Very angsty at times. Especially when Devlin rejects Rosie every time they get close because he thinks that she is going to reveal his secrets to the reporter.
