Bruh, ya'll sheesh, Cade?! Daddy?! Man this man jumbled my whole list of faves from Emily xD. 
This book was so so good (I mean it's Emily obviously it's good) but I instantly fell in love with Amaya (Esmeralda) a young woman left behind by her mom with her autistic brother. She started stripping in order to afford living under heavy scorn from the village. 

Cade is a priest called to Festivalé to get the church in order. He has a monster inside him that snuffs out the sinners, until he walks into his sin incarnate basically - Amaya. He's obsessed and stuff just- goes from there. 
The amount of times I've bLUSHED MAN?! There's something about a man ready to kneel for you instead of god :D 
and the smUT?! Speechless, so hot? ufnfnfnfnf

As always, check the TW's but ;ll never not recommend Emily her Never After series <3
