Moonlight Sins

A de Vincent Novel

De: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Blake Richard

New York Times best-selling 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, working for the infamous de Vincent family, the massively wealthy brothers who are haunted by a dark reputation and whispers of misdeeds. Hired to care for their troubled sister, Julia can't afford any distractions, but the menacing presence in the mansion and the ever-present temptation of the handsome Lucian de Vincent isn't something anyone can ignore.

Julia knows better than to get wrapped up in Lucian. He's from a world she can't relate to. Plus, he's her employer. But his wicked touch and sensual promises are too much deny. What starts with a kiss ends with so much more.

Lucian is the youngest brother - the wildest, most unpredictable one. He's the unrepentant bachelor of the family, known for his escapades in and out of the bedroom, and he wants Julia. There's something about her that makes Lucian want to lay himself bare, but some secrets are better left buried, right along with a past that could not only bring down a dynasty but destroy Julia in the process.

"If you love atmospheric drama, dangerous family secrets and sensual romance, this is the book for you!" ( RT Book Reviews)

Romance and mystery

Romance with a thrilling story that keeps you listening. This book has everything thing I look for in a book. Take a chance it’s worth the credit you won’t be disappointed. Narrator’s did a great job bring the story to life.

Romance, Sex and Mystery!

I really enjoyed this Jennifer L. Armentrout book. I'm used to reading more of her fantasy books so this was a wonderful surprise for me. I truly loved Julia as well!

Sexy with a good twist

It’s really good. Spicy 🌶️🌶️🌶️ love, funny. Good story. I recommend it. Can’t wait to start next book.

Kept me on the edge

There were so many twist and turns, it kept me coming back to listen just a little longer! It is the first time in a long time a book is not predictable, the same trope, and had just enough spice to balance out the intrigue! I will be listening to the next book in the series! I hope it is as good as this one.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the male narrator, however, I did like his New Orleans accent! When he was reading And not using his accent, his voice did not match the persona of his character.

The book is set in New Orleans, but there is not a lot of dialogue regarding the great city. It is all about the family and the home and their mysterious happenings.

Sizzling Hot!!!

First of all, I want to give a shout out to both CJ and Blake. This is the first book that I’ve listen to in which I liked both narrator’s. They were amazing and I could just picture Lucian and Julia talking like that.

Whoa, this book was hot. Lucian was hot. I found myself wishing that I was Julia. the whole time. I know this is not real, but he made me want to spend quality time with him. Ha ha.

I’m so excited to read Gabe‘s story. I actually liked him as a secondary character.

Remember, this is pretty explicit. I wouldn’t recommend a young teenager to read this.

Umm. Hello CJ and Blake. Holy COW.

Would you listen to Moonlight Sins again? Why?

Yes. Because I'm obsessed with the narrators. They really made this a stellar listen.

This was my first time listening to CJ. I kind of feel like an idiot right now because she's amazing and I've missed out on all of her totally epic narrations. I'm making up for it, I promise. I've got a CJ binge coming up.

Moonlight Sins is dark and eerie, and my GAAWD her voice contrasts this so well. She adds this unique humor to the text. A little bit quirky, a lot a bit relatable. She embodied Julia's character so well. I don't know who cast CJ for this part, but they're my new favorite person. Genius. My ears are happy. I cried. Listening to this audiobook was like walking into a dark torture chamber but in the middle of the space is my favorite cupcake—CJ is the cupcake.

I want to talk about the inflections in CJ's voice because CJ slayed. You never know what you're going to get when you try a new narrator, and I got exactly what I wanted. A narrator must, must, must be able to have a legit conversation with themselves, meaning: control over octaves. CJ is a master of this trade. She needs to teach a college course called "How to Talk to Yourself for a Living." On top of that, her flow is parallel to none and she makes this good book into a great book. A++ across the board.

This was actually my first listen to Blake, too. Yeehaw! I entered all sorts of new territory here. You know...I hesitated with his performance at first. He reads slowly, which I love, but there is this airiness that pushes him forward and I wasn't sure if I liked or not.

Three hours later, I was sweating.  No amount of fanning my face could have cooled me off. This man. THIS. MAN. Midnight Sins is da-a-ark. Blake! Augh! My heart.

Call me obsessed. Blake's dialogue is out of this world. I mean, the man can TALK to himself. He's very different from other male narrators in the sense that he separates a character's dialogue from the narration even when he's in the same POV. Am I making sense right now? I'm sure I sound like a crazy person. After you listen to so many audiobooks, tone muddles together, personalities dilute. No no no, not here. He narrates with that feathery, debonair tone, and then when he enters dialogue it's like he's legitimately talking to me.

Friends, this is so amazing, especially since the book is in third person past tense (also my favorite) and he was able to narrate it as such. This was just...addicting? Dare I say, perfect? If you're an audiobook addict, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about when you listen to the audio sample. At first, this caught me off guard because I wasn't used to it. Now, I F-L-O-V-E it. In a sea of narrators, I could pick Blake out immediately. And then I'd ask him kindly (but still sort of threateningly) to read every third person past tense book in existence.

The mystery and romance

Narrators did amazing and it was easy to connect with the characters and their emotions. Great story line

Very Dark and Delightful

Where does Moonlight Sins rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I've listened to several audiobooks in my day, I absolutely love this one! The narrating was done very well. Loved both narrators, they did an excellent job!

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the darkness of this story. It's very mysterious. As I'm listening, I kept looking around and becoming paranoid over any little noise.

What does CJ Bloom and Blake Richard bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I loved the southern accent each character gave to the de Vincent brothers. It's easy to forget we are in New Orleans, but they make their character's roots obvious, really love that!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There is a little bit of a plot twist towards the ending. That definitely moved me. Made me second guess some of the ways I was thinking at the beginning of the story.

Any additional comments?

Excellent book for someone looking for NA (new adult) romance. It has romance and mystery. The characters are well written and the story exciting! Never a dull moment at all. Highly recommend this one. The narration is wonderful too!

Loved it!!!!

A great story with love, lust and intrigue. Can't wait to read the rest in the series. I first read this book as a free read and I was hooked. Now I had to listen to the whole series. Great Job!!!

Narrator was not good

I could not get into the story because the male characters' voices were so annoying!
