I started reading Priest as a joke and I ended up loving it….until I didn’t. 

Pros:
- Tyler’s dilemma is original and thought provoking. The heart of this book is undeniably great. 
- The writing is phenomenal. This book has some of the most beautiful prose I’ve ever read. 
- The smut was 10/10

Cons:
- 0 communication between the two characters causes most of the plot.
- Poppy must have been written by a man and you can’t convince me otherwise.  From beginning to end she is a caricature of a woman. 

Overall, a good read if you want your smut to have plot, but the cons significantly brought down what could have been a 5 star read.
