I was a little disappointed in this book. I thought that the story plot looked interesting but as I started to read I started to lose I intersect.

2 Stars - I can't particularly recommend this title.

I am sucker for a priest plot, so I thought that this story would be right up my alley. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it as much as I had hoped. It seemed like there were some moments in the book that were edited, and then referenced in a confusing way. For example, we don't ever see Devlin break his leg... but then it is referenced later and a bit confusing. There were several other instances of this happening as well. I enjoyed the parts of the story where Devlin and Mary visit the elderly and poor in their community and that there was a bit of tension between them. I was hoping for more banter and tension between them though, and found that lacking, especially in the beginning of the book. In the end, I was just very disappointed in how things shook out between all of the characters. I won't leave spoilers here, but I found myself second guessing if this was indeed a romance novel. Everyone ended up being manipulative, and that left the swoony moments feeling uncomfortable to me, and the ending feeling rushed and dampered by all that went wrong. Maybe this just isn't my kind of book.
