I cried reading this book, which I really didn't expect especially seeing how the first book Priest went. The scene was the one near the end when Tyler looks at Sean and asks, "Did you feel it too?" as they're crying. I cried with them because it was such a beautiful scene and because I obviously very much loved Tyler and grew to lvoe Sean because of this story. I'm excited to read the next one and figure out what happened between Aiden and Elijah!

The first part of the book starts out predictable like other smutty books. Then out of nowhere you’re hit with tense waves of concern and contemplation.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.

I enjoyed this story so much more than Priest. It’s interesting being inside the brain of a man in a romance novel. A adjustment for me, for sure… but I can see the intention and reason for it. It read very similarly to many other billionaire romance books I’ve read.
The Catholic practices were fetishized some, but not as much or the way they were in Priest. The spiritual struggle was so much more real, relatable and common, in my opinion.
I found myself, again, caught off guard by the spirituality that was genuine, raw and relatable. The struggle with the structure and dealings of the Catholic Church and finding the good and necessary in the institution that is as corrupt as it is. It was such an interesting mentality. But then the spice was undeniably spicy. And the relation between bedroom fun and spirituality isn’t something I am used to having fill the same book.
