It would take a saint to resist Elijah Iverson.
Aiden was the last person in the world anyone expected to become a monk. But the decision to become a monk saved his life, and he's determined to do it right, even if it's taken him from his millionaire party-boy lifestyle…and the love of his life, Elijah Iverson. Four-plus years haven't made letting Elijah go any easier, but at least Aiden hasn't had to come face-to-face with those whiskey eyes and soft mouth since he left. That is, until Elijah shows up on his doorstep, assigned to accompany Aiden on a European monastery road trip for an article he's writing.
The pull is still there between them, but Aiden knows he can't have Elijah back. He broke his heart when he left, and now Elijah's engaged to someone else. Aiden chose God. He chose his vows. Except, between whispered confessions and stolen kisses and moments bent over an ancient altar, those vows are feeling flimsier by the day. Vows or not, it would take a saint to resist Elijah…and Aiden's sure as hell no saint.

As much as I enjoyed the book, 4 stars because I found it hard to understand what Aiden’s deal was honestly.
Rating: 3.5 idk it was good but I wasn't fully connected to the characters but also I was idk I did love the ending it was cute and it went a route I didn't expect from the synopsis but I still enjoyed
This is EXACTLY what I wanted from Priest, the first book in the series.
I haven't stopped thinking about this since I read it.
Aiden and Elijah's characters were built well, and their connection felt very real. I absolutely enjoyed the tension in this book, and the angst between the characters, and the fact that Aiden literally locks his dick in a cage because he's THAT determined to be celibate. It was absolutely iconic.
I enjoyed her writing too, it was rich and beautiful.
