Pretty disappointed with how this turned out. I had some expectations coming from having read Priest which I actually really liked. Much of my apprehension and annoyance comes from reading this from the perspective of such an egotistical man. It doesn’t help that the author repeatedly mentions how Sean Bell is such a “bad man”, just in different words and phrasing. Like bro I GET IT. You’re a rich, hot, ladies’ man who likes it HARD and has a big dick. It’s giving me SMALL DICK ENERGY so STOP.
Although the taboo (huge age gap + MC is a postulate) topic being tackled in this book didn’t turn me off completely, there are just cringe-y and skin-crawling parts like Sean calling Zenobia “Zenny-bug” while also in the same breath recalling that he held her as a baby before like fuck that’s so weird.
Honestly, the only two things I liked in this book are the steamy scenes AND the conversations surrounding religion, especially when Sean was talking to Tyler.
