Review
Earlier this year I reviewed Moonlight Sins, the first book in the de Vincent series and fell in love with the brothers. I enjoyed that book so when the opportunity arose to review this one, I jumped on it. This book could be read as a stand-alone, it summarizes all the important parts from the first book, but you might be a bit confused in some places. It would be in your best interests to read Moonlight Sins first.
I love reading romantic suspense when it’s done right. Thankfully, this one was. Much like the first book, this was romance with a bit of suspense and just a whispered suggestion of some paranormal activity. The suspenseful parts help facilitate the growth of the relationship, that is what I like to see in these books. From the plot to the characters to the setting, everything about this book was perfect.
At 400 pages, it was longer than the books I typically read. I never thought I would say this, but I wish it were longer. All the loose ends are neatly tied together, the mystery was solved and the couple found their happily ever after. It’s just, I devoured all 400 pages of Gabe and Nikki over 2 days. I think I’m experiencing withdrawals. I miss them so much and I want more.
If you’re a fan of romantic suspense, this book has it all. There are secrets, scandals, stalkers, misappropriated affection. It had me on the edge of my seat and although there was foreshadowing, I had no idea who the bad guy was until the big reveal.
I enjoyed getting to catch up with the de Vincent brothers and exploring New Orleans through the characters eyes. It was a great read and although I’m struggling to review the book without spoilers, I can’t recommend it enough.
Overall, Moonlight Seduction was a second chance romance with a twist. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something to read during these hot summer evenings.

Great review♥️ I’m very hesitant to read a romantic suspense. I think the “suspense” part is what is holding me off. Makes me think of thrillerish books which aren’t always my thing. But then I learn of books that sound like this and it has me changing my mind.

Thanks! I always worry about the suspense too. I can’t even count how many times I’ve had to say, “it was a great suspense but I can only give it half the stars because the romance was forgotten.” I thought this author did a great job of making sure it was a romance novel above all. 🙂

If it is as good as her paranormal series then I’m in. Love the cover too.

I love her books under J.Lynn and while I enjoyed the first book in the Lux series, I couldn’t get into the rest of the series. Your review makes me want to read this book though!

Your review has me intrigued, and I’ll be adding this to my list. I haven’t read a good romantic suspense in awhile, even though it’s one of my favorite genres. Time to change that!
