Blurb:
It takes a fearless woman to love the most scandalous man alive in New York Times Bestselling Author Jennifer L. Armentrout’s breathtaking novel
Even a ghost hunter like Rosie Herpin couldn’t have foreseen the fateful meeting between two mourners that has brought her so intimately close to the notorious and seductive Devlin de Vincent. Everyone in New Orleans knows he’s heir to a dark family curse that both frightens and enthralls. To the locals, Devlin is the devil. To Rosie, he’s a man who’s stoking her wildest fantasies. When a brutal attack on her friend is linked to the de Vincents, he becomes a mystery she may be risking her life to solve.
Devlin knows what he wants from this sexy and adventurous woman. But what does Rosie want from him? It’s a question that becomes more pressing—and more dangerous—when he suspects her of prying into the shadows of his past.
Now, the legends surrounding the de Vincents may not be myths at all. But if she’s to discover the truth, she must follow them straight into the arms of the man she can’t resist—the handsome devil himself.
My thoughts:
Oh the scandals! It’s aptly titled that’s for sure. This book was fabulous! I forfeited sleep to read this book in one night and I regret nothing!
I loved the previous books in this series and could not wait for Devlin’s story. Leave it to Jennifer to save the best for last.
Devlin, from the beginning has been elusive, secretive, mysterious, and in a strange way overly protective, and I knew it was going to be so fun discovering all that is the eldest deVincent brother. There was so much more to him than I could’ve guessed, and he definitely met his match in Rosie. She’s strong, funny and her ghost hunting and interest in the paranormal counters his stoic, guarded personality perfectly. I loved the banter between the two of them. It was the perfect balance of sass and sarcasm that brought humor while building the chemistry between Dev and Rosie. And let me tell you the chemistry between these two is off the charts.
While all this chemistry is flying around between Dev and Rosie, truths are being uncovered and scandals revealed! Every time I thought I had it figured out the plot took a turn I did not see coming. The scandals alone had me on the edge of my seat frantically reading to the very end. Throw in the witty back and forth between Dev and Rosie, and you’ve got the perfect contemporary romance with and hint of paranormal to keep it interesting. Once again Jennifer L. Armentrout knocked it out of the park with the conclusion of the deVincent brothers series.
