Priest: A Love Story

Product Information

I wanted to write crime fiction from a young age. I took a Biomedical Science degree, hoping to follow this with a PhD in Forensics but soon realised I didn’t want to spend the rest of my working life in a lab. So I took a Master’s degree in Science Communication and became a health journalist and editor instead. I knew my own crime novel needed to feature a journalist. My main character, Shanna Regan, has spent her life travelling, whereas my own job has always been desk-based in the UK. Maybe this is why I love reading crime novels that whisk me off to other countries (in my head)! Mark Dawson is one of the most famous English authors who is very well known for writing thriller novels. He is particularly famous for and currently writing three novels series’ John Milton, Beatrix Rose and Soho Noir. After being born in Lowestoft, Suffolk, England, he was raised in Manchester and Chicago, Illinois. Zandy Lynch never planned on going to grad school a virgin. So when her professor father finds her a job abroad as a research assistant the summer before she starts her master’s program, she sees her chance. I have two short things to work on--a novella for a project that hasn't been announced yet, and partial manuscript for my agent for a submission for a traditional publisher (it's an erotic contemporary retelling of Esther and the King, if you wanted to know.)

A group for people who enjoy reading and talking about adult historical romance books between a man and woman. Legendary spy and art restorer Gabriel Allon has slipped into Venice for a much-needed holiday with his wife and two young children. But when Pope Paul VII dies suddenly, Gabriel is summoned to Rome by the Holy Father's loyal private secretary, Archbishop Luigi Donati. A billion Catholic faithful have been told that the… This book made me laugh out loud multiple times due to the sheer ridiculousness of its story, its mile-wide plot holes, and dialogue that’s meant to come across as bold and sexy but reads more like someone who’s never spoken to another human being before. Poppy’s reasoning for becoming a sex worker is underdeveloped at best, as is her reasoning for the half-baked (and inevitable) third act break-up. Both of which are probably made worse by the fact that the book is entirely told from Tyler’s perspective, so we have no insight into Poppy’s seemingly nonsensical decision making. It’s a lot. But also I think we can all admit to ourselves that if you buy this book, you aren’t necessarily coming for a Pulitzer Prize-winning plot.

The Bishop sends the priest Heden into the wood, to find out why. Arriving at their secret priory, Heden discovers their commander is dead, the remaining knights paralyzed with despair. They will not act, they will not tell him what happened, and with each hour the monstrous army gets closer to Ollghum Keep.… As someone who grew up agnostic and somehow ended up an Episcopal Church lady, I’m intrigued by writers who deal with Christian belief respectfully without leaving their sense of humor behind. I don’t believe that faith is required to be moral—my nonreligious parents are more principled than many Christians I know—but I like to see characters work out that tension between what we’re taught in Scripture, what we believe or want to believe, and how we actually live it out in daily life (sins and all). I especially enjoy watching this happen in that peculiar petri dish of personalities that is any local church. Ferreira, has committed apostasy and renounced the Christian faith. About half of the book is Rodriguez's The plot of the novel opens with the depiction of John Milton as a state-sanctioned killer and thinks that he is done with his profession. He seems to be troubled by nightmares and ghosts, who frequently torment him in his dreams.
