This was soooooo cathartic for my repressed middle school Catholic girl. Being raised a cradle Catholic, I’ve had my fair share of guilt and shame when it comes to my *ahem* “carnal pleasures” (as Father Bell so eloquently put it). It has taken a long time to embrace my sexuality (and to be honest the embracing is STILL going on)! I gobbled this up literally within 24 hours (thank you Daylight Savings) and will be moving on to the next in the series! The tension and spice was hot hot HOT! And I loved the personal struggles the characters went through and how they came out in the end. My only misgiving was the third act breakup — god help me — and how it clearly went against the characters personalities. It was a happy (and spicy) ending though so I’m fairly happy!
