Publisher's Summary

He is righteousness. She is sin.

Father Cade Frederic is a holy man. Brought up in the streets of Paris, he has dedicated his life to the church. But there's a monster that lingers just beneath the surface. A sickness. One that bleeds darkness and feeds on the damned. When he's tasked to become the priest in Festivale, Vermont, a town both beautiful in architecture and riddled with despair, his sickness sings, demanding he rid the place of evil.

Amaya Paquette is Festivale's beautiful mystery. She spends her days caring for her younger brother and her nights transforming into Esmeralda, dancing for greedy eyes and shameless lips. Although she longs for love, she shies away from companionship, afraid of being abandoned again.

When Father Cade lays eyes on Amaya, he finds himself ensnared, convinced she's using witchcraft to lure him to her. He can't eat. Can't breathe. Can't think unless it's of her.

And temptation is a devastating mistress.

She's his weakness, so he decides he'll be her demise . . . even if it means killing the only woman he might ever love.

Contains mature themes.

A crazy take on the Hunchback story.

Liked the character development of the priest. A bit off putting at times but took me out of my comfort zone of stories.

A bit slow…

The storyline is good but a bit long winded. Could have used a bit more editing. But ending was great!

The French accent threw me off at first but grew on me

As always

DUAL NARRATION
🙌🙌🙌🙌

I love fairy tales. I love fairy tale retellings and reimaginings

Emily has a way of adding those details we love and adore and can easily recognize in such a way that is just so fantastic. And the fact that this whole series is about the 'villians' in those stories being the love interest and the heros being the antagonists is so much better.

Ok so I don't know where to start. I loved this. So much and this book in the series is a top 3 for sure. * scarred and hooked are the other two*

I loved how she wrote all the characters but I think the majority of this review will be about daddy- I mean Father Cade Fedric

In addicted to morally grey nen and Cabe is my new fix
He is the walking red flag poster man of morally grey book boyfriends.
Obsession, possesive, soft for her and her little brother. Protective and good in the sack
The first interaction Cade had with Quinten. He had my heart. I was a goner.
" I like dinosaurs too. Don't tell anyone "

There's just something how men interact with kids, especially children on the spectrum. I have a soft spot for men like that ( being on the spectrum myself and having my youngest brother also on the spectrum)
I was a goner

And then
* minor spoiler*

This one line in the book. I didn't think I could be double gone but here we are, when Cabe said " she may be your wife. But she is my soul"

So good. I'm addicted
When I see others say this book is their favorite out of the series, I understand now.
It's so good.

perfornamce was good, story mid

2.5 stars rounded up

I dont know how to rate this. It was like reading Haunting Adeline but he's a psycho stalker, killer PRIEST... one who has a LOT of trauma

I mean it was OK... if he wasn't a Priest it would have been 80 times better
