This Book Had No Business Being This Spicy

Within the first 10 pages, I already knew this book was going to be a problem 🌶️

Priest by Sierra Simone is provocative, Sinfully, spicy, and clearly unapologetic. This book is taboo in a way that keeps you hooked - and maybe blushing.

This is one of those reads where you close the book, stare at the wall, and think “wow…ok…”

Be honest, would you read this? 🫣

This book had no business being THAT hot 😳🔥
My first Kandi Steiner book… and I was not ready 👀🔥 Stand Your Ground (book 5 in the Kings of the Ice series) had no business being this hot. I went in thinking it’d just be another hockey romance, and came out obsessed with Livia & Carter’s domme/sub dynamic 😭 The spice? Elite. The writing?
