***From USA Today Bestselling Authors, A.M. Hargrove and Terri E. Laine, comes a complete standalone New Adult Contemporary Romance. Since I was a boy, my desire was to marry the church. To give my vows and life over to God despite the corruption in my soul. I am a sinner, the embodiment of temptation, or so I've been told. Yet I've never touched, never kissed, never sought the company of another until her. She is my weakness, my salvation, my downfall, and my freedom. Our sins are bound tighter than fate. My name is Canaan. I am an ordained Roman Catholic priest, forever and always. Her name is Haven. She may be my destiny, my destruction. This is, not a love story, but rather a confession of all my sins. ***Warning - A Beautiful Sin is a forbidden romance that blurs the lines between passion and religious faith. Please be warned, the subject matter may be offensive to some readers.

My review:
Wow! This book had me absolutely speechless. Canaan’s dedication to the church blew me away. No, he wasn’t perfect by any means but I loved that he put his whole heart and soul in his faith. The things he endured as a child broke my heart but I commend him for not letting those experiences change him in a more negative way. My feelings were much the same for Haven. Yet again, no child should have to go through what she experienced. Canaan and Haven were so much alike yet so different. The grief that they went through could easily be felt through the writing. The chemistry was magnetic. Their inner battle in regards to doing what’s “right” and giving in to fire blazing between them was indescribable. I can honestly say I had no idea where this story was going to lead and I was a bit surprised by the ending and the way things played out. Overall though, this is just one of those books that you can’t put down and I highly recommend it.
