The Priest

Original Sinners, Book 9

De: Tiffany Reisz

Narrado por: Sean Crisden, Elizabeth Hart

New Orleans, four months after the events of The Queen...

Søren has been suspended from the Jesuits for a minimum of one year after confessing to fathering a child. To say he's struggling with his newfound freedom is an understatement.

Kingsley is about to be a father again and is convinced something very bad is about to happen. Nerves? Or is he right that the time has come for the Sinners to pay for their sins?

And if things couldn't get worse, a handsome private detective shows up and tells Mistress Nora that a priest has just committed suicide, and she was the last person he tried to call. He would like to know why....

She doesn't know, but Nora and her new detective friend will turn over the city to find out, meeting liars, vampires, and witches along the way. When she finds what she's looking for, she may wish she'd never stepped foot in New Orleans.

Contains mature themes.

forever love this series

My heart leapt at the release of this book. Happy surprise. Does not disappoint.

Time to give Eleanor her flowers

At the start of this story, the reunion is quite cold -Soren seemed more interested in re-establishing his dominance than embracing his woman after a month-long absence. But passion is necessarily unrestrained.

So far, Soren has sacrificed his passion for Elenor on the altar of Mastery and Ownership. The Dom-Sub dynamic remains a brick wall between them, compared with his relationship with Kingsley. Their similar age and history provide a seniority that is conducive to more expressive affection. Passion is the reason Soren is seen ardently kissing K while setting up the Christmas tree [Michael's Wings] and in the open doorway to the library [Wrapped in black]. When Eleanor arrives at the same house, Soren kisses her on the... cheek.

For all intents and purposes, both S and K are now family men and K's concern, re- explaining to the children [Wrapped in black], is quite valid. It might be time to archive this side of their relationship. To quote Kingsley: “A brooding sexual obsession with someone you dated in high school doesn’t really count as a relationship, does it?” “I made passes at you. She made sacrifices for you. If this was a competition between me and her and you were the prize, she should win, hands down.” [A Winter Symphony: A Christmas Novella]

# 11 SHALL BE LIT!

It’s a detective story!

First off, Nora gives good character! Her newest is Private Investigator Cyrus. He doesn’t get Nora’s world of kink, he thinks she is crazy, and she lets him think that. But in true Nora fashion, she lets her actions and wit win him over. He still thinks she is crazy tho, lol. And her help has become invaluable to him in figuring out a suicide/murder case that involves a Priest and kink.

What impresses me the most about THIS particular story is Reisz is not afraid to touch the taboo subject of Priests and the controversy in the church with children (to this point it was only on the periphery). This entire series is based on The Catholic Church, a Priest, and BDSM after all. All of this sounds really weird, and it would be if Reisz’s handling of it was less than stellar. She is a phenomenal cerebral writer who does not judge, but lets her readers determine what they want while giving them both sides of the argument. Meanwhile, Nora and Soren, even now, still suffer a crisis of conscience and faith. It is a never ending battle that is continuously looked at in the mirror. Even after listening to this book, there is more story to tell with Nora & Soren. I always look forward to Reisz’s books. She has never disappointed me. My guess is that if you want to listen to this book, you are already a Original Sinners fan, otherwise, none of this story will make sense to you.

The Narrators Sean Crisden, Excellent, and Elizabeth Hart, Excellent. First, Ms Hart will always be the voice of Nora, Soren, Kingsley and cast. Her handling of accents and characters is truly beautiful. Second, Mr Crisden is now a new favorite narrator for me.

Stupendous

Tiffany has out done herself. this was a great story. Suspenseful, romance and crime story. Absolutely loved it. Can't wait for the next chapter of Nora's life with Soren, Nico and King!!!

Exceptional narration - good continuation of Eleanor and Soren

It took a while for me to listen to this but when I did, thoroughly enjoyed the continuing story of my 3 favorite characters , Eleanor, Soren and Kingsley...This book also showcase the underlying truth of sexual abuse and secrecy behind the church of priests shrouded in white collars when they are just normal men...and the call out of women priests..

More Please.

Please keep them coming. I cant get enough. I am so obsessed with this story.

Narration Perfection!

Loved having Elizabeth Hart bringing her sexy Kingsley back. He wasn’t a huge part of the book but he was his outrageously inappropriate self. Nora and Cyrus were a great team and Soren is a Viking God! Thank you Tiffany Reisz, I loved this from start to finish.

The friendship that developed between “”Cy and Nor” was so refreshing. The surprising storylines went there! Exploring the daily racism and continual feeling of fear that black men face as told from Cyrus’ point of view. And, the way Nora dealt with and overcame obstacles, dismissals and feelings of vulnerability that women experience were welcomed and excellent additions to this book.

Especially now.

Amazing of course

Tiffany Reisz is brilliant and there is no better family of kinksters than these characters. They really dig into it here man. Cyrus Tremont is a great vanilla addition. I love how throughout the series we see all manner of relationships that Nora has. Every one is fully fleshed out & believable. Nora grows from each relationship but she is always consistently Nora. Nora’s friendship with Cyrus is great. And plenty of Nora & Soren too. Plus a mystery. It gets kind of heavy but it’s also lots of fun. Loved it.

Excellent read

I loved this book !! It had a combination of SM , love, tension, mystery and religion . The friendship between Nora and Cyrus is amazing and pulls the reader in completely . One of my favorite audible listens to date. Love this author . She is a great storyteller despite approaching what can be a tender subject.

as good as the hype!!

it's not as dark as everyone makes it out but it's a great story with some really spicy bits! I was not disappointed and I want to know what happens next!
