This was such an interesting concept and I enjoyed Signa and Deaths' characters. Some of the characters were a little bit harder to love or root for, but they grew on you. Really thought-provoking and definitely some interesting twists. I was pleasantly surprised considering I went into it blind. I wish it had some spice after all the tension but I didn't realize it was YA lol. Despite that, I still really enjoying it.

Kinda spoiler-y...

Now let me preface this by saying that I'm not religious at all and I have no problem with a bit of forbidden romance, but even I found myself cringing at some of the sacrilegious acts in this book. The MMC is a priest, but he acts more like a horny teenager than a man of faith nearing his 30s, and his inner monologue and lack of actual respect for his station and faith was icky. The instalust toward the FMC without even ever seeing her was annoying. The author seemed to try to give the FMC depth by making her highly educated, incredibly attractive, and having an altruistic nature, but completely ruined it by just making her a cheating sex-addicted stripper. The miscommunication then instant reconnection at the end was the rancid cherry on top of this smut-filled instalove book. Meh.

This one was harder for me to get through, despite the fact that this seems to be everyone's favorite book in the series. I love the MMC and some of the side characters. Again, I felt like all of the interesting things happen closer to the end of the book, and it was really hard for me to stick through this to get there, but I eventually finished.
