Father Tyler Bell has devoted his life to God. For years, faith, discipline, and duty have defined every breath he takes—until one woman shatters the careful balance he’s built around his vows.
When Poppy Danforth walks into his confessional, her voice awakens a desire Tyler has spent his entire life denying. What begins as a moment of temptation quickly becomes an all-consuming struggle between sacred devotion and forbidden longing. Bound by his vows and haunted by his desires, Tyler finds himself questioning not only his faith, but the life he chose to serve it.
As their connection deepens, Tyler must confront the cost of desire, the weight of guilt, and the terrifying possibility that love—real love—may demand everything he has sworn to give up. Priest is a provocative exploration of faith, sin, devotion, and the line between holiness and desire, where every choice carries eternal consequences.
Priest contains explicit and emotionally intense themes that may be sensitive for some readers, including:
The writing in this book combined with the narration of Jacob Morgan makes this one steamy book! The spicy scenes in the MMCs point of view are a perspective that gets the blood boiling. Aside from that the thoughts about his religion warring with the sexual desire. These pros are well written and thought provoking. The ride was so good, I read it twice last year.. And maybe revisited Father Bell more than I would like to admit.
I have heard rumors about Priest becoming a movie, but as of right now that is just a rumor and everything I have seen it is not going to happen.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.
Marnie Long:
After accepting Max’s surprising breakfast invitation the next morning, I was floating on air. Mere minutes later, though, all hell broke loose and I had no choice but to bolt out of Max’s place like my hair was on fire. It was such a pity, too. That scorching-hot patent attorney was the best I’ve ever had.
A year later, when I ran into Max at a party, I was a very bad girl and didn’t resist doing that very naughty thing. Now, thanks to my utter lack of willpower and common sense, I’ve risked my horrible secret getting out. Even worse, I’m in danger of catching real feelings for Max. Which I simply can’t do. Obviously. I’m not sure I can control what happens next, though. When I’m with Max, I feel like a runaway train, on the verge of hurtling off my tracks.
Who’s Your Daddy? is a single mother, age gap, forced proximity, standalone, unputdownable rom com that will keep you laughing, fanning yourself, and swooning, all the way to Max and Marnie’s happily ever after.

This book grabbed me by the throat and refused to let go, in truth it kept me up all night. Did I see some of the twists coming? Yes. Did I care? Absolutely not—because the ride was that good.
Marnie is one of those painfully relatable characters you immediately root for… even as the universe keeps kicking her while she’s down. I found myself constantly thinking, Yep, that would be me.
A lot of books lose momentum once the spice shows up, but not this one. The tension stayed sharp, the pacing stayed strong, and I was fully invested the whole way through. My heart was racing, I was giggling like an idiot, read this one and you won't be disappointed!
Fun, flirty, and impossible to put down—this one understood the assignment. 🔥📖
