A Delicious Sinful Bite
Agnes Church, a rambling house that smelled of incense, candle wax, and the faint, masculine musk of the man who slept just down the hall.
Father Damien was thirty two, tall and broad shouldered, with black hair that curled slightly at the nape of his neck and a jawline sharp enough to cut glass. His black clerical shirt stretched across a chest that clearly knew hard labor, chopping firewood for the poor, carrying the elderly up the church steps, lifting crates of wine for communion.
Every time he rolled up his sleeves to wash dishes after their silent suppers, Amelia’s mouth went dry. The white collar at his throat should have been a warning. Instead it was a dare.
