From The Publisher:
There are many rules a priest can't break. A priest cannot marry. A priest cannot abandon his flock. A priest cannot forsake his God.
I've always been good at following rules.
Until she came. Then I learned new rules.
My name is Tyler Anselm Bell. I'm twenty-nine years old. Six months ago, I broke my vow of celibacy on the altar of my own church, and God help me, I would do it again.
I am a priest and this is my confession.

This books just gives a "taboo" vibe, just looking at it. But I decided to give it a go, as I never read a romance/erotica with a religious background and it had me intruiged. The book was pretty much just smut and dirty talk, not much of a plot to talk about and I was a bit disappointed in that. Smut is fun yes, but I want a good plot to go along with it. I feelt like the author missed to flesh the characters out and use religion as an intresting part of the story and not use it as a "Romeo and Julia" kind of deal. It was OK written but had me wishing for more
I’m religious and I was worried that this was gonna have a lot of God bashing but it was actually super spiritual which I LOVED. I loved that it was dirty and degrading without being gross. 10/10
I don’t think I could ever come up with words to describe how wonderful this book is. The words are beautiful and just flow. I didn’t find myself highlighting much because I loved pages upon pages. The taboo, turmoil, fire with all the feelings was superb. Loved every minute.
