BLURB:

Logan spent two years paying for the mistakes he made. Now, he’s ready to start over. He has a great apartment, a good job, and plenty of women to distract him from his past. And one woman who is driving him to distraction…

Grace escaped her manipulative family by moving to a new city. Her new life, made to suit her own needs, is almost perfect. All she needs to do is find her Mr. Right—or at least figure out a way to ignore her irresistible yet annoying womanizer of a neighbor.

Grace is determined to have nothing to do with Logan until a life-changing surprise slowly begins turning the wild heartbreaker into exactly the kind of strong, stable man she’s been searching for. Only just when she begins to give into his charms, her own messy past threatens to derail everything they’ve worked to build…

Last book in the Series.

REVIEW:

On Dublin Street has always been my go to series for fantastic steamy and emotionally driven romance, the characters and plots are so well done that I have re-read many of them multiple times. I knew it would eventually come but being the end of one of my favorites makes me so sad, I will miss each couple but also cant wait to see what Young comes up with next. If you have been following the series, this is a must read, even if you haven’t read them all, this one is not to miss.

Moonlight on Nightingale Way follows Logan, the brother of Shannon from the previous series. Logan spend many years in prison paying for a mistake that was only to protect his sister. But he paid his dues and is now ready to start his life again. He’s got a good job, a nice apartment and women in ten fold. But what he wasn’t prepared for is his sweet quiet neighbor driving him nuts with her complaints about his exploits. Logan is as about to get a wake up call and the only person he thought hated him gives him the boost he needs, and that’s his fiery neighbor Grace.

Logan was introduced in the pervious books, he was in jail for beating his sisters ex after he hurt her. He feels it was a mistake where others feel he is a hero for stopping an abusive man from hurting his family. Now Logan lives though each day to his fullest, but its still empty and lonely in a way. I adored Logan’s abrasive yet flirtatious attitude with his neighbor Grace, he knew he was pushing her buttons but still continued to live loud, not matter how thin their walls were. His life has had a lot of lows, but he is given the chance at something special when Maia appears at his doorstep. Maia is a young teen who claims to be his daughter, Grave who witnesses everything steps in and helps them both cope with this big change. I really enjoyed the twist that Maia added to Logan’s life; he needed something to give him a boost in his revolving door life. Grace is a godsend to him, she doesn’t even think twice as she works to encourage Maia and guide Logan into fatherhood.

Grace knows about life changing, she comes from a family who is in the spotlight and only cares and image and money. Her family isnt picture perfect but quite the opposite, they never made her feel life she was good enough, that she eventually left and changed her name. Grace found a family in her best friends Aidan and Chole, who are her number one supports and protectors. She isnt thrilled with Logan’s attitude at first but her attraction towards him is hard to push away. I loved watching their relationship develop and how Grace and Logan opened up to each other about their fears and past issues. She becomes like a mother to Maia and helps her through school and bad choices. I loved how sweet Grace is with Maia and Logan sees their connection and he starts to feel the same.

Overall this was the best way to end such a wonderful series, all the characters return, the fans will love seeing how everyone has moved forward and how the new couple find their happiness. As in all the books in this series there are ups and downs in main couples life, but the extended families help them both see the positives. I loved the ending POV from each couple and seriously cant wait to read the last novella.
