I cannot believe I started AND finished this book in one evening. 🤣🤣🫣

There were so many times I was dying laughing because of the absurdity of the situation, yet it was also gold. Wowza.

I picked this up after hearing so much about it on TikTok.
“Priest” the smutty romance story about a priest, and one of parishioners. Tyler may be young, and very good looking, but he has decided to devote his life to God. Everything seems to be going fine for him, until a new parishioner, Poppy, temps Tyler in every way. Now he has to choose between the life he has built, serving God, or a life with Poppy.
Tyler Bell sounds like such an amazing priest, not because he is sexy or young, but he has such a beautiful way of looking at religion. He truly wants to change people’s perspectives about the Catholic Church, and he wants people to experience the beauty and love that God can offer them. I know that is not the main point of the story but I really appreciated this.

I really did not like Poppy as a character. She had a lot of flaws, and I think she epitomizes the concept of a toxic woman. She seduced Tyler and made him question his entire life. She knew how much he was falling for her, and she felt the same way, but then, when he was ready to give up everything for her, she threw it all away. She left him without so much as a word, and the lack of explanation is just unforgivable in my opinion. Tyler was such a good guy, and in spite of how Poppy treated him, he found his way, and he continued to work to find his life‘s purpose. I feel like he could do so much better than Poppy.

Overall, I think this book is very well written, but it does flirt with being a little much. I do think the author handled the content matter with grace, and I do not think that any religious aspects were brought up in a manner that were outright offensive. With that said, the nature of this book may offend some people. I do think the author is incredibly talented, and I do intend to read more from her in the future.

I do recommend this book if you are I interested in a super sexy book about a priest.
