Good and bad. Right and wrong.
Life would be easy if things were always that simple.
That’s never been the case for Henri Boudreaux.
Son of a criminal. Ex-boyfriend to a Priest.
Henri's made a career out of getting in trouble and avoiding the law.
So when he winds up in bed with it, he knows that things are about to get…complicated.
But what’s life without taking a few risks?
And what’s a risk without the threat of being caught?
No one's ever accused Henri of being good man.
And Officer Craig Bailey is about to find out just how bad he can be.

We are back in Chicago for Priest's ex, Henri's story...Henri Boudreaux has always been considered a bad bet. His dad is a criminal, he used to be a criminal, and even though he is trying to do more right than wrong these days, you cannot take that edge away. He is the dark, mysterious, bad boy, but he also yearns for companionship and someone to accept him. He comes off as confident and jaded, but also has some inner vulnerability and self-worth issues. His past has marked him and left him with guilt, nightmares, and emotional scars. And he has already watched the only man who truly understands him and who he truly loved get married...not once, but twice. And that just adds to his loneliness.
Officer Craig Bailey is a good man and a good cop. He is coolheaded, positive, reserved, but also sexy and charismatic. He is a relationship versus one-night stand kind of guy, but a walk on the wild side might be just what he needs to let go.
When these two meet, sparks fly. But there are some starts and stops until they are able to explore their explosive chemistry. But what should have been a one-and-done, is hard to forget. They are under each other's skin. Henry's always been to one to run away, but maybe Bailey is the one who will make him want to stay. But pushing for anything more can be a challenge due to Henry's past and secrets, and Bailey's sense of honor.
Bailey's family and best friend, Xander, and Henri's ex Priest (along with his husbands Julien and Robbie) bring more depth and drama to the story. I love this Confessions world and spending more time with all of the characters.
This book is so full of sexual tension and passion. It's about risk and reward, and vulnerability and the need to build trust. I love both of the main characters and despite their differences, they really seem like a dynamic match. There is still more to learn about these guys and definitely for them to share with each other. There is a dangerous edge to it due to the crime storylines in the background. This does not end on a huge cliffhanger, but does show the conflict they will have to overcome. I cannot wait to read more about them in the next book, Confessions: Bailey.

Relationships are complex.
Love ever-changing.
And when it comes to rules of the heart,
they were made to be broken…
That’s what Robert Antonio Bianchi was telling himself, anyway.
Otherwise, he really had no excuse for what—or who—he’d done.
No excuse, except for his lonely heart, a pitcher of margaritas, four Bitter Bitches, and the apparent need to confess all his weaknesses to the two men he knew would bring him nothing but trouble.
But trouble was nothing new.
Just ask his crazy sisters or any of his friends, and they’d be the first to tell you:
If there was a bad decision to be made, Robbie always had a knack for making it.
And thus begins the story of the priest, the princess, and the prick.

People are complex.
Love a double-edged sword.
And when it comes to a broken heart, there are no rules, only time…
For the past eight years, Julien Thornton has been living with a secret. One that only a handful of people know about.
To the outside world, he has it all.
A thriving career. A loving husband. And a face that the American public fell for by the millions, on a reality show that inadvertently saved his life.
But behind the shine of celebrity, behind the easygoing nature, a crippling truth fills Julien with pain and self-loathing. It’s a truth that he fights to overcome daily with the help of his husband, Joel Priestley, and now their boyfriend, Robbie Bianchi.
But unlike Priest, Robbie doesn’t know what he’s helping Julien to fight. He doesn’t know what Julien did all those years ago. And with the anniversary of his sister’s death fast approaching, the time for explanations is running out.
And thus the question: will the princess be able to forgive the prick as the priest once did?
Only time will tell.

Kim's 4.5/5 star review
I am complex.
My love is all-encompassing.
And when it comes to my heart, there is only one rule:
Don’t mess with what’s mine.
Until the age of seven, I was Joel Alexander Donovan, son of Jimmy.
The man who terrorized a town and made its citizens fear
the very ground he walked on. Including me,
the day I realized that ground ran red with blood.
At age eighteen, I became Priest.
A man without a past.
A man determined to right the wrongs of my father.
A man who never believed anyone could love the son of such a monster.
But then a thief stole my heart.
A sweetheart lit up my world.
And I forgot for a moment you should never turn your back on your enemy.
And thus begins a lesson to those who would seek to harm: Never underestimate what the Priest will do to protect the Princess and the Prick.
Kim's 5 star review
Everyone said our love wouldn’t work. That it was too hard, too complicated, too messy. Oh how I enjoy proving everyone wrong.
My men are smart, sexy, sophisticated— and most of all, crazy about me. The only problem is trying to explain that to my big, opinionated Italian family.
But after all we’ve been through, we deserve a happily ever after. And if there’s one thing I know about my guys, they always manage to have a few surprises up their sleeves.
