Rezension von JoanneThis book tries to be a hundred things at once and somehow fails at every single one of them. The plot is all over the place, the characters feel flat and whatever emotional depth it aims for just never lands. At this point, I genuinely don’t know why I keep giving dark romance another chance…
Rezension von Sabrina RehmanI enjoyed this book was more than I thought I would. The smut was hot, but I loved how there were some important life lessons to be learned from this book. I will definitely be reading the rest of the series.
Rezension von SophieDer Gedanke war gut, die Umsetzung hat mir leider gar nicht gefallen.
Rezension von cherryThe idea of a priest struggling with forbidden desire was definitely intriguing and had potential, but the actual storyline didn’t pull me in as much as I hoped. There’s a lot of spice. Like, a lot. If that’s what you’re here for, you’ll be more than satisfied. The scenes are intense and well written. But the male lead felt a bit too conflicted for me. His constant inner struggle started to feel repetitive. The plot was okay, but I expected more emotional depth or just something that would stay with me. It didn’t really deliver that. If you’re into taboo romance with heavy steam, this might be your thing. Personally, I thought it was fine but not amazing.
Rezension von JúliaTiefgründig und Spicy - im grunde perfekt für zwischendurch [Achtung könnte Spoiler beinhalten] Ich muss sagen, ich war positiv überrascht als ich das Buch begonnen habe zu lesen, normalerweise überhaupt nicht mein Genre, jedoch brauchte ich etwas einfaches für zwischendurch. Noch dazu war es in seiner POV. Die Thematik das der Protagonist Priester ist und die Protagonistin einfach nur eine non-religiöse Frau, ist spannend gewesen. Ich finde die Autorin hat es tatsächlich geschafft eine gewisse tiefe damit zu kreieren, und diese war nicht nur oberflächlich. Man war konfrontiert mit den aufkommenden Problemen und dem Zwiespalt des Priesters. Ich selbst, bin absolut nicht religiös und muss dennoch sagen das ich keinerlei Probleme hatte mich mit dem Buch zurecht zufinden. Ja der Katholizismus war ein sehr präsentes Thema - aber nicht zu aufdringlich, dass man unterschwellig das Gefühl hat, einem würde der Katholizismus verkauft werden, es werden neue Anekdoten genannt (grade zum Thema Sex vor der Ehe) - welche sehr spannend sind mitzulesen. Zu dem ist die Dynamik der beiden Protagonisten sehr toll, jedoch muss ich tatsächlich sagen dass ich das Ende sehr traurig fand - die beiden Heiraten nämlich, trotzdessen das Poppy von heute auf morgen verschwunden war und sieben Monate später ist plötzlich alles wieder gut? I doubt it. Das Ende hätte man durchaus weglassen können und besser verpacken können, sei es jetzt das Tyler dennoch einfach mehr zu sich selbst findet etc. Abgesehen vom Ende also, würde ich das Buch also tatsächlich weiter empfehlen.
