I just finished this Priest by Sierra Simone & good god it was amazing!

Here's my thoughts -

This was a 5 star read for me. Hot, sexy, fast paced and while it had all of those things in it, this story was also beautiful and thoughtful and touched my soul in a way not a lot of stories do. Sure, we all love really hot sex and a leading male character who we fall in love with, but sometimes those books are enjoyed in the moment and then we move on to the next, never forgetting the story but at the same time it doesn't sit in our soul in the way some stories do. Priest will remain with me and be added to my favourites list, which by the way is not a huge list. Why? Because the author explored the topic that I love to read about - finding ones life path.

You might read this book and think it's all about sex, and that's great too because if hot sex is what you're after, you'll get it here (and you'll get it really fucking good). I believe we all read books differently and take from them something that is relevant to our own lives, and Tyler Bell questioning his chosen life path is the thing I took most from this book.

I usually highlight a lot of passages when I read, but I was so engrossed in this book I only highlighted one, and to be honest, when you read which one, it won't mean anything to you unless you've read the book.

"And the word came into my mind with a calm, resonant authority.
*Yes*
Yes."

This book reminded me that we all struggle with decisions in life; we all struggle with knowing what our calling is.

It also reminded me how hard that struggle can be, but that working through that process is worth it. Sierra Simone writes beautifully and flawlessly, and I was captivated by her words from the very first sentence.

So, there you have it. I adored this book and highly recommend it to everyone. Yeah, it deals with a taboo subject but it is done so beautifully that I think most readers will fall in love with the story.

Curly Oh I've got this gem on my kindle and I'm rhinking maybe it's time I read it. I just finished King by T.M. Frazier and have a massive book hangover. Can't wait for #2. My reviewhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...


**Elle**Bee**Double U** (mysticbaby1991) I have Priest on my kindle. I'm kind of waiting until I get into "the mood" to read it LOL. Right now I've been going through a military kick and I'm currently reading House Calls: Callaghan Brothers (Book 3) by Abbie Zanders. This series is really good, so far. However, I will say the first one was a bit slow starting out and I didn't get to the point where I couldn't put it down until about the 45% mark.

Wendy Hodges (wendyshodges) | 3 comments I have this on my kindle but haven't ha a chance to read I yet. im reading Nicole snows grizzlies mc series at the moment, its very good and worth a read

Curly, I LOVED King!! I've pre-ordered the next book (and doing the happy dance cause it comes out on my birthday ;) ).

Lourin, I've never read a military book but I'm going to have to cause I think a military man would be hot!

Wendy, I haven't read any of Nicole's books - will have to check them out.

Joanne, I loved Mud Vein!!! Tarryn has a way with words <3

So, I am currently 44% into Ricochet by Keri Lake and I do like it. If you love a darker read with some violence and ugliness check this book out. She writes really well and I'm loving that. My only thing is I am a romance junkie and so far there is no romance in it... but I guess that's the thing about dark romance - sometimes it takes a while to get to the romance (well, I'm hoping there's gonna be some soon!). I can see where it is possibly all leading and I am cheering the characters on to get there lol.

My next read will be Brave by Natalie Gayle. I've already read some of it and what I read was good - and if you check the reviews out, this book is getting rave reviews so I am excited!!

Hope you're all having a great weekend - it's bloody cold in Brisbane so really good reading weather :) Mind you... I'm writing more than reading xx


She's a Lip Biter (shesalipbiter) | 4 comments Hey All,

I'm currently reading Brave by Natalie Gayle! Just finished Desertion by River Savage and before that it was Priest by Sierra Simone.

Holy Hotness!!!!

Happy to discuss with you all xxx

Joanne - I LOVED that trilogy! Surprisingly, I enjoyed the movies almost as much.

I'm in a complete book funk. I've got hundreds if unread books on my kindle & nothing is sparking my fancy. My mood demands something alpha, sexy & sassy. Any suggestions?

I'm not really sure, I seem to think it will be later this year. She doesn't always let me know when to expect things. Her next book is from her Cold Fury series & I don't proof those. If you like her work she has a private group Sawyer Bennett's Never Ending Party. She has a post in there about the rest of this year's work.

You are very welcome!!! Her Cold Fury books are great. But then I have read almost everything she has written & I love them all.

Jos (jap68) | 1 comments So agree with you Nina on Priest...LOVED it:) I also just read Nine Minutes to get ready for what I thought was supposed to the sequel but have since learned there will be a third book so may just wait for the other 2 books BUT Nine Minutes, holy hell, what a freaking book hangover with that 5 star read!!!!! I also just read Dirty by AC Bextor and I am currently doing a beta read for her as well on the second book. I also just read Jax Declan Bros by kelly Gendron and loved it as well as Deacon by Kristen Ashley and loved that one too!!!!!!!

Joyce (mamaw1999) | 2 comments I am currently reading the Gallows by Chelle Bliss. I am liking it so far.

So girls, I need your opinion. I started this SUPER HOT Crossfire style series (not Crossfire).

The sex is OFF THE CHARTS HOT & I loved the anticipation of finding out each of their secrets. I had butterflies and that love for reading and all the swoons & desires... until I got to the second book.

Well you see, HE'S NEEDY & WHINY, and throws tantys to get his own way.

Am I being mean in expecting this BDSM dude to be more alpha-like? I can't stop rolling my eyes. I don't think I can continue.

I love a man that is in touch with his feelings, and cares for his woman so much that he'll do anything. But him being terrified she will leave him for 2 whole books and needing constant reassurance is sucking the life out of me.

Am I the only one that can't stand that? I seem to be skimming to get to the super hot sex where he's all demanding and orgasm inducing.

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Jodie xx

I read a SUPER HOT book over the weekend, I couldn't put it down!!! There was a point in the book that I couldn't even fathom - well, I could, but I couldn't... I explained that well, don't you think?

So, this book had SO much goodness. I found the sex SUPER HOT and the story line had so much to offer, I didn't want it to end. It really was the complete package!!!

HOT BILLIONAIRE
EROTICA AUTHOR / BOOKSTORE OWNER
CHEMISTRY I FELT TO MY TOES
SEX EXPERIMENTATION <<-- This was extra *extra* hot because they learnt their likes together
DRAMA
ANGST
DRAMA
HOT SEX
MYSTERY
HEARTBREAK
DRAMA
ANGST
HOT SEX

I will be honest, there was a few things that bothered me about the chick at first, BUT DUDE you should still read this!!! I still find myself thinking I'll give it 5 stars... that's a glowing rec from me. I'm fussy as fuck these days.

PS. I implore you. Don't search spoilers. If I could handle the unknown for all those pages, YOU CAN TOO!!!!!

PPS. If you read this, AND YOU TOTALLY SHOULD, let me know so we can chat about it :)

Check it out here -->> The Story Series: Tell Me a Story- The Complete Novel (Episodes 1-5) by Tamara Lush: http://amzn.to/2pFoyzF
