His Sinful Obsession
(2026)(The fifth book in the Claimed By The Cloth series)
A novel by Kelsie Calloway
I was sentenced to community service at his church. He decided I was serving him instead.
Fifty hours. That's all I have to survive under the watch of Father Bolton Alvarado, a man I can't stand. He's calm where I'm chaos. Patient where I'm fury. And he looks at me like he sees straight through my anger to every wound underneath.
I hate the church. I hate what it took from me. And I especially hate how this priest makes me feel - seen, challenged, wanted.
"You're not angry at God," he says, backing me against the sanctuary wall. "You're angry at yourself. For wanting something you think you can't have."
He's wrong. He has to be. But when he kisses me like a man breaking every vow he's ever made, I realize I don't hate him at all.
I'm terrified of how much I need him. And he's done letting me run.
Tropes: enemies to lovers • forced proximity • priest breaks his vows • slow burn • he breaks down her walls
