What an amazing book! This by far was the most anticipated book for me in this series and it held up to all my dreamy expectations. Every book in this series has been just perfectly fitting for each brother, but I am kinda partial to the gorgeous a-holes with a fortress of walls around them... because you know for a fact that you’ll enjoy every minute of watching that facade crumble. This was definitely the case for Devlin as Rosie worms her way under his skin and into his life. The push and pull from the two of them is so magnetic and exciting. You never know what will come out of each other’s mouths or how they’ll react to one another. This hate-to-love type of angst and electricity is addictive and I couldn’t put this book down!
I highly recommend this series!

How does one describe the de Vincent's without sounding like a giggling school girl!?! Lucian with his charming self and beguiling eyes. Gabe and his broken-hearted existence making you want to hold him. But Devlin, Devlin has secretly been my hidden delight, a hidden bar of chocolate that you often look at but decide it isn't the right time for. (No judging the hidden chocolate!)
Devlin is a complicated dark chocolate with Mango woven in. He's decadent. He's forbidden. He's everything you desire but tell yourself you would never need. He's too much yet a tiny sampling will never be enough.
Devlin de Vincent is the whole package and more. The only problem is that his outer wrapping is surrounded by Gorilla tape. It's almost impenetrable. Almost. His tightly woven world is slipping with all these secrets, doubts, and conspiracies.
Secrets, secrets everywhere. The de Vincent's secrets are the stuff every reporter dreams of finding. They are the stuff nightmares are made of. They are going to be ripped open for every reader to see. Your thoughts, fears, and answers are just pages away. But ever after...that you will need to see!
I love the complexities of this family. I love the paranormal vibe, but with the doubters' edge. It makes it seem more real. It gives an edge to the story while satisfying both believer and nonbelievers. I love that though this takes place in South you feel like you are right there. (It's currently -17 F where I live with the 30 mph winds so the South sounds perfect right now!)
As always, the author has given us a family to want to call our own, a group to call friends, and a need to belong. So whether you like the charmer, the broody artist or the seemingly unfeeling mysterious older brother...the de Vincent's will capture your heart before you even realize it was available.

Excerpt:
Rosie needed to get going. She’d promised to help her friend Nikki move today, so it was time to head back to her apartment, get changed, and be a good friend for the day. She leaned—
A soft, swift curse jerked her head up. Normally, she didn’t hear a ton of cursing in a cemetery. Usually things were quite quiet. A faint grin tugged at her lips. Cursing and cemeteries typically did not go hand in hand. She scanned the narrow path to her right and didn’t see anything. Leaning back, she looked to her left and found the source.
A man knelt on one knee with his back to her as he picked up flowers that had fallen into a puddle left by the recent rainstorm. Even from where she sat, she could see that whatever delicate bouquet he’d carried was ruined.
Placing a hand over her eyes, she squinted in the sunlight as she watched the man rise. He was dressed as if he’d come straight from work. Dark trousers paired with a fitted white dress shirt. The sleeves were rolled up to the elbows, revealing tan forearms. It was late September and New Orleans was still circling the seventh level of hot, currently as humid as Satan’s balls in the afternoon, so she figured if she was close to dying in her black dress, he had to be minutes away from stripping off the shirt.
Still standing with his back to her, he stared down at the ruined flowers. His shoulders were tense as he turned in the other direction. His pace was brisk as he took the flowers over to an old oak tree festooned with Spanish moss. There was a small trash can there, one of the very few in the entire cemetery. He tossed the flowers and then pivoted, quickly disappearing down one of the numerous lanes.
Oh man, that sucked.
Feeling for the guy, she sprang into action. Carefully, she pulled half of the stems free and then leaned forward, placing the remaining in the vase in front of her Herpin tomb. She picked up her keys and as she rose, she slid her purple- framed sunglasses on. Hurrying down the worn path with patchy grass, she turned down the lane she’d seen the guy go down. Luck was on her side, because she saw him near the pyramid tomb. He hung a right there, and feeling a wee bit like a stalker, she trailed behind him.
Of course, she could yell out to him and just hand him the other half of the peonies, but shouting at a stranger in a cemetery just seemed wrong. Shouting in a cemetery at all felt like something her mother would side- eye her over.
And no one side- eyed quite like her mother.
The man made another turn and then stepped out of her line of sight. Holding on to the flowers, she walked passed a tomb with a large cross and then her steps slowed.
She found him.
He was standing before a massive mausoleum, one guarded by two beautifully erected weeping angels, and he was just standing there, as still as those angels, his arms stiff at his sides and his hands closed. She took a step for- ward as her gaze drifted to the name on the mausoleum.
de Vincent.
Her eyes widened and she blurted out, “Holy baby llama.”
The man twisted at the waist, and Rosie was suddenly standing within mere feet of the Devil. .
That was what the gossip magazines called him.
That was what most of her family called him.
Rosie liked to refer to him as in her wildest dreams.
