I wanted to love this book. I have read the previous 3 books in this series and have loved them, but this one had a couple of moments that felt strange to me and led me astray - her doctor's visit & how she kept talking about 'getting into character'. Definitely different than how in prior books each of the characters owned who they were. Otherwise, the characters were likeable, and I appreciated some of the humor from peripheral characters. Still happy I read it.

I loved Plum and Gideon’s story!
Plum Brolingtide is the rockabilly fashionista who owns Caffeinatrix--Clover City’s premier cafe. The buxom barista’s favorite hobby? Flirting outrageously with the priest who frequents her establishment.
Gideon Davies is the handsome and unflappable priest at All Saints church who has a weakness for almond croissants, flat whites, and disciplining mouthy young women.
I love how the fell in love with each other despite the fact some of the members of the church didn’t approve of their relationship and all that plum had went through in the story and how the community come together to help her

I thought I'd like this more than I did. The beginning was so promising and relatable, but there wasn't enough relationship building for me. Their personalities weren't particularly well developed - the bdsm scenes were great but it was missing some sweetness.
