New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout delivers the unforgettable story of a woman whose new life has just begun—but may end in murder . . .
Julia Hughes has always played it safe until she learned a very painful lesson. Now Julia’s starting over with a job in the Louisiana bayou—and a scorching encounter with a stranger, only to discover he’s Lucian de Vincent . . . her new employer. The de Vincent brothers share a massive fortune and a dark reputation. Julia cares for their troubled sister, but a menacing presence in the mansion—and the ever-present
temptation of Lucian—prove dangerously distracting.
Lucian’s grandmother claimed de Vincent men fall in love once—and hard. Apparently, it’s Lucian’s turn. Julia’s compassionate care of his twin makes Lucian want to lay himself bare. But some secrets are better for Julia not to know.
The recent “suicide” of Lucian’s father is the latest in a string of deaths on the estate. Someone is eliminating the de Vincents. And the best way to get to Lucian may be through Julia. . . .

My Review
“How can you be here and be the most beautiful creature I’ve ever seen?”
“She just needed to live a little. Plunge into whatever dark promises those sea-blue eyes of his offered.”
“I’m as broken as they come, but I don’t need to be fixed. I don’t want to be fixed.” “I like all my fucked-up shards and pieces. They make me who I am. They make me real.” The question is, can you handle real?”
“It’s in the way someone carries themselves. It’s etched into every minute line of the face and in the shadows of their eyes. It still leaves its mark.”
Moonlight Sins is the first book in an intoxicating and thrilling new series from Jennifer L. Armentrout. This story is sexy. It is dark. It is mysterious. You will be swept up in this story and completely unable to put it down. You will have so many questions and very few answers. All leading up to one very thrilling ride.
Told from dual points of view, Moonlight Sins follows the story of Julia and Lucian. Their story starts off with a bang and immediately draws you in. I was utterly captivated and was dying to know more. I was so intrigued and couldn’t wait to see where their story would go. I loved the chemistry and slow burn between Julia and Lucian. Their push and pull was so enticing and just had me begging for more.
And then there was the mystery and intrigue. Oh, my goodness! I just loved it. I had so many questions and not nearly enough answers. I wasn’t sure who to trust or what anyone’s true agenda was. I had a hunger for the truth and couldn’t wait for it all to be revealed. I have to say, I had my suspicions and was thrilled to see that my thoughts were going in the right direction. I really enjoyed seeing how this story was laid out and how it was unraveling. I absolutely loved the mystery and the air of danger that surrounded the story-line.
Moonlight Sins kicks off the De Vincent Series with one heck of a bang. I enjoyed every moment of this story from beginning to end and am super excited to see where this series is going to go next.
