The Rossi Legacies #3
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin
Skyla Silara Rossi is the 18-year-old daughter of the Lycan King himself. She attends Midnight Academy, a place that is a safe haven for the supernatural, but for Skyla, it's not enough. She still doesn't fit in.
Unable to control the power and rage of her beast, she isolates herself from the world. With each passing year, her Lycan is getting stronger. Becoming harder for the young princess to mingle with those who have now come to fear her.
This year, there's something different that awaits her return to the Academy, in the form of two Alpha males.
Aleric and Royce Arden are the twin sons of the Alpha of The Shadow Wolves Pack. With blond hair and icy grey eyes, the twins are walking gods, ones that any girl would notice. Even Skyla Rossi.
Coming from a pack that holds its own secrets, they both have come to the academy as new teachers. Each with his own hidden intentions. Yet when their lives intertwine with the Lycan Princess, everything is thrown upside down.
Skyla spells trouble and danger. But can the wild Rossi be tamed, or will her emotions and power, mixed with betrayal, destroy her forever?
Will Skyla find her knight in shining armour, or will the Arden Princes be her ultimate downfall?
A Feisty Lycan Princess, a Charming Science Professor and a Broody Trainer; what could go wrong?
Oh yes, everything.

Moonlight Muse
Stars: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️
Time read: 8 hours
Cliffhanger
* MY REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!
* ALWAYS READ TRIGGER WARNINGS!
Tropes/tags:
Shifter: Lucan, werewolf
Fated mates
OM drama
Love triangle
Forbidden
Strong FMC
Student/teacher
age gap -7 years
Skyla Rossi-18, lycan, daughter of the Lycan King Alejandro
Aleric & Royce Arden, one fated and one chosen.
Told in multi POV’s, this story starts off with Skyla wanting to be alone because her lycan is hard to control, she is moving into a cabin in the woods outside the academy. She makes plans to finally meet up with her dream guy she met awhile back on the internet, only to later be stood up by him! Later she discovers her mystery man is one of her teachers at the academy, but he is completely different from his online persona. She actually finds herself drawn to his twin brother instead. With danger around the corner, Skyla must learn to control her lycan, as well try to navigate through murky waters when it comes to the Arden twins and their relationship with her!
Breathtakingly and heartbreakingly beautiful! Muse is an absolute goddess when it comes to storytelling. Guys, please know that if you had to spend money on books from one author only for the rest of your life, I would suggest Muse 1,000x over! Most of what I read is on kindle unlimited, but Muse is one author I will by everything she writes. Very few authors can compete with her work.
This is NOT a standalone and WILL end with a cliffhanger. It is part of a series and is best enjoyed in order, however if you chose to you COULD start with The Rossi legacies book one and skip their parents, The Alpha series. I do HIGHLY RECOMMEND you read that series first though!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
🌶🌶
I fell in love with this world when I read Her Forbidden Alpha and have been completely enamored since.
Skyla has always portrayed herself as strong and independent. Since an incident from her childhood, she refused to let people see her true self, the pain, and to be a burden. But it was only a facade she put in place.
The character depth of Aleric, Royce, and Skyla was incredibly done. Royce and Skyla had their own internal battles and struggles. You could feel their pain and stress when reading their internal monologues. Neither of them felt as if they could lean on their family's for their own reasons. Aleric has his own struggles and insecurities, which are being used against him.
This is a slow burn, and once you get to the spice, it's worth the wait. The tension was high, and dirty talk 🫦
The plot, pacing, and world building were great. I could not put the book down and kept telling myself, "One more chapter."
I am terrified and am also so excited to read book two. I have so many questions and theories. I feel a little stressed going into book two, I think it's going to take me on an emotional rollercoaster, and I don't know if I'm ready. But I know I will not be disappointed and need to trust the process. Honestly, book two can not be released fast enough

The daughter of the Lycan King, the mysterious Arden twins and the looming darkness. So, what exactly of the three have in common? Read it and you'll find out!
Skyla is the first ever Lycan female that appeared in this world. She has issues, struggles with the beast inside her, and she always gets in trouble. Her story is definitely the one that touched my heart. Her every action is so similar to her father that it pained me. When she gets involved with her teachers, the whole world shifts around them.
Aleric and Royce Arden are from a pack, that people don't know much about. But the charming and nice-mannered Aleric and the broody trainer, Royce have secrets and motives.
Sky's interactions with the twins are so different. Sometimes it made me laugh and sometimes it broke my heart.
The book gave me so many emotions, so much to reconsider and so many perspectives.
It's also an action-filled story and I was shocked by what disasters shaped Sky.
You need to read this story, it's emotional, it's exciting, and we can see some original characters that help Sky.

This duet had me up, down, screaming, crying, sweating, hot & icy all at the same time. Skyla, our audacious lioness, had SUCH A JOURNEY in her books. Muse did not make it easy for her, that's for sure.
Throughout most of this book, Muse definitely has you questioning who's right or wrong for her, if they could both possibly be her mates, who's being deceptive and who's trustworthy. We find out many family secrets and connections we never knew about (but maybe had theories from prior books) & have plenty of appearances from the Rossi/Westwood gang we know and love.
Without giving away spoilers, by the end of this book, Skyla is mated to one which sparks a whole new journey of chaos in the next book.
And the ice, spice, & everything nice is off the charts.

This book is absolutely amazing.
Sky is struggling so hard with her Lycan side. She reminds me so much of her dad.
She is also between two brothers. The good and the bad guy. The Arden twins both are a temptation that she can't avoid.
And when you think that all things get in line and everything will be alright Muse ends the book with a major cliffhanger leaving you with your mouth agape!
If you haven't read this book, go for it. And I mean now
Actually, you should have started it yesterday...
Totally, totally recommend it!!!
And running to read her second book...

Skyla Rossi is like no female lead you have ever read. She has absolutely no filter and won't apologize for being the bad-a$$ she is! Sky is pulled between the Arden twins but I promise you that you will only love ONE of them. Royce is everything you could ask for in a male lead. He is strong and sexy and dominant. The spar scene with Royce and Alejandro is worth the price of admission alone. The spice in this book is ooolala. You'll never think of ice the same way again! I can't wait for the conclusion of this duet!

In this story we meet Skyla Rossi, who is outspoken and struggling to control her secret. Considering she's only 18 and living on her own, she becomes the object of fascination and desire for twin brothers. The drama ensues when someone tries to kill her and this all leads to a page turning romance that has fights, witchcraft, and love.
I am loving the Rossi legacies and totally enjoyed this series. There are lot of twists and turns, and truths discovered, and a lot of connections will fall into place. A good read.

I loved this book. I am delving into the Rossi Legacies after a long break and boy have I missed out on the stories.
As usual, Muse delivers with all the suspense and drama. I feel like sometimes the writing could be improved but I think it's just me as a reader. Both POVs sound like they were the same person, especially expressing themselves.
I am still giving it a four stars because apart from the writing, I love the book and will continue reading them.

Awesome first book of Skyla Rossi's story. Ends on a heart-stopping cliffhanger so don’t read unless your intending to read Book 2 of Skyla, and trust me you want to read them. Skyla gets entangled with twin brothers and everybody has secrets. This book has it all: steam, passion, heartache, action, mystery, magic fingers and squirty cream. IYKYK. Now on to book 2 - Skyla Rossi: A Game of Deception and Lies.

All of the stars!!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best book of the series and probably one of the best books I’ve ever read. MuctherFing Royce 🫠🥵
The world that the author has created is impeccable with the most well thought out plot. The character development is incredible. The pacing in this book is executed to perfection. And that cliffhanger 😫😭
Onto the next book…..

Hot damn if Leo and Alejandro didn’t get you Royce absolutely will. This epic tale of good and evil will leave you wondering what is to come and where everyone stands. Maleficent gets her days to shine and this book will leave you on the edge until the very end. One of my absolute favorites!

I have been reading these novels from the beginning and all of them are amazing. This particular one really kept me on the edge of my seat. Talk about keeping it interesting when you have too bad boys and a bad girl.

Sky is a true strong character! Follow her deeper into a crazy world and see her grow into who she needs to be! Plus additional delicious spicey moments!

Skyla
Skyla is my absolute favorite female lead. Between her hard exterior and internalized self doubt it was so easy to fall for her flaws and all

Skyla book is not bad but is not of my favorite character. The book is well written and entertaining for a paranormal erotic novel. There is always a mystery and conflict to solve.

February 12, 2025I wasn't sure how much is like this book since skyla isn't one of my faves but after reading a few chapters I was hooked it's amazing

The introduction to the Rossi's Lucifer. The first twin ... who will pull at those heart strings. Don't be quick to judge on her. She has her reasons for wanting to be alone. Just love her.

Warning - Some content in this book may be disturbing or upsetting to certain readers.
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin is book 3 in, The Rossi Legacies Series.
As the first-ever female Lycan, 18-year-old Skyla Rossi, daughter of Lycan King Alejandro, presents a confident, strong, and independent exterior to the world, while secretly grappling with the challenges of controlling her turbulent emotions and unbridled Lycan instincts, with her constant companion, her cat Malevolent, always by her side.
After reading this, Skyla and Royce have become one of my favourites; individually they grapple with past trauma and the pressure exerted on them by others, but together they form an unstoppable force.
Author Moonlight Muse has once again crafted a beautifully written book, with a unique writing style that immediately immerses you in this captivating shifter world.
Written in multiple POV’s. You will encounter a wide range of emotions throughout.
💫💫To get a deeper understanding it is best to read the entire series. Which starts off with her grandparents story. Her Forbidden Alpha - Book 1 of, The Alpha Series. If that doesn’t interest you then I suggest to start at Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire - Book 1 of, The Rossi Legacies.💫💫
