I can’t have Elijah Iverson.
I can’t have him because he’s my older brother’s best friend. I can’t have him because I broke his heart five years ago; because he’s now engaged to someone else—someone kind and dependable who deserves his whiskey eyes, his soft mouth, his fierce intellect.
I can’t have Elijah because I’ve chosen God instead.
The Bell brothers, though . . . well, we don’t exactly have the greatest track record with vows. But I’m determined to do this monk thing right—to pledge myself to a cloistered life and spend the rest of my years in chastity and prayer. But now Elijah’s here. He’s here and he’s coming with me on my European monastery road trip, and between the whispered confessions and the stolen kisses and the moments bent over an ancient altar, my vows are feeling flimsier by the day.
And vows or not, I know in my heart that it would take more than a good and holy monk to resist Elijah Iverson right now. It would take a saint.
And we all know that I’m no saint.
This is the third full-length M/M standalone in the Priest Collection, featuring Father Bell’s brother, Aiden Bell. You do not have to read Priest or Sinner to read Saint.
There’s no instruction manual for falling in love with your best friend’s little brother. And there’s no manual for falling back in love with him when he’s a monk.
ARC REVIEW ➞
Aiden and Elijah were once in love. Now, all of Aiden’s love is devoted to God. Now, five years, after Aiden unexpectedly left and joined a monastery him and Elijah are back in each other’s lives, but not in a way neither of them expected.
Aiden and Elijah’s story is a slow one, it is an emotional one. Both of these men have a love for the other, but they are also struggling with their own demons. This story is their journey as individual’s but also their journey together.
There is a forbidden aspect of this story, as Aiden is a monk. While it is packed full of emotions and beautiful places, there is no shortage when it comes to the steam. It is so beautifully woven into the overall story.
This story is one that you’ll be thinking of days after finishing. There is so much more to this story than just a romance, its thought provoking and eye opening.
If you’re looking for a second chance, MM, slow burn romance this is one to read.
