NO WAY IN HELL IS HE AN ORDAINED CATHOLIC PRIEST. Yeah, I know what you're thinking... Biker, cage fighter, Russian mafia hitman, maybe. Man of God, not so much. Because of the tatsleeves or six-pack? Pierced nipple, perhaps. Is it the sun-streaked blonde hair and granite-hewn features making you doubt? It's okay, I get it. Priests don't typically come packaged in six-foot-two frames of shredded muscle. They don't have panty-melting smiles or bedroom eyes the color of an ocean squall. They don't make you think fallen angel. No ma'am, I'm not anyone's idea of a cleric, lookswise or otherwise. I think about sex a little too much. I'm not always good about following the rules. I drop F-bombs. I have a temper. And yeah, have shamefully broken a few vows. Would it also surprise you then to learn that despite all of the above I truly love God and the Church? That I received my calling when I was just nine? That I'd planned my life for the priesthood yet almost gave it all up for a woman? Now just so we're clear... This isn't going to be some sappy romantic rendering of forbidden love ? la The Thorn Birds. Sorry to disappoint. As for those expecting a smutty one-handed read about a hot holy father sporting junk as huge as his ego, apologies again. My name is Tristan, aka Father Cleary, and whatever else you may think this story is about... I respectfully suggest you think again. *Advisory for strong pervasive language, frank sexual content with possible triggers, and an unconventional hero who is vulnerable and torn but not always nice. (You've been warned, lol.) FATHER is the first book in the standalone series, Men of the Cloth.
