If you’re into fleabag and you think this might be similar you’re very very very wrong. Turn around. 


Firstly, his name is Tyler and the woman’s name is Poppy. Shall I continue? Well if I must… 

Tyler’s POV. He’s a priest, for allll the wrong reasons (literally when you find out you’ll be upset he chose that way.) 
Poor priest Tyler meets Poppy during a confession; a confession where Poppy is scared about her big bad secret (it’s not that dramatic as she makes it seem.) 
Poor Poppy, poor used to be rich girl who ran away from that life had to suffer really hard things. Insert fake sad face. 
There’s more mentions of the series The Walking Dead then there is actual descriptions of what Tyler looks like. 
Tyler has a massive family, so many siblings but somehow his parents are still young. Does the author even know what she’s writing? 
I can’t believe this was written by a woman, i’m upset. I’ve read books from men who hate women and thought they were better than this. 

Would not recommend this to anyone.
