About this listen

He tries to resist him, but he's irresistible. Everywhere Father Gregory goes, he sees him. He's made a promise to his congregation, a promise to the Lord, a promise to himself that he'll keep his vow of celibacy. But when Father Gregory first lays eyes on Owen, he cannot keep his mind off of him.

How can he avoid him when his heart tell him otherwise? How can he resist him when Owen has made it clear that he wants the priest - mind, body, and soul? How can he stop falling in love with him when destiny keeps bringing them together?

This is a steamy, short gay romance M/M novel. If you are looking for a full-length novel, please do not purchase this book.

Going into this, I already suspected it wouldn’t be my kind of book. Erotica isn’t usually my preference, but since I received a free audiobook copy through Free Audiobook Codes—and it was quite short—I decided to give it a try.

Jamie Lake is a better writer than expected, and the theme of forbidden desire shows occasional promise, particularly in its exploration of internal conflict. However, that promise is never fully realised. The writing steadily declines in quality, and the characters remain underdeveloped, making it difficult to stay invested. The story ultimately leans too heavily on its premise rather than delivering a fully developed narrative.

The audiobook is further let down by James Tabolt’s narration. He sounds noticeably older than characters meant to be in their late twenties, and the constant tremble in his voice becomes increasingly distracting.

This is clearly written for a very specific audience. While some readers may enjoy this kind of MM taboo erotica, it relies too heavily on its niche appeal—and ultimately, it didn’t work for me.

Thank you to the author for a free copy of this audiobook, which I received via Free Audiobook Codes in exchange for an honest review.
