Breakable Faith (Vale Valley, Season1 #8) by Michael Mandrake







Blurb

One night equals a test of faith for Father Lance…

Trouble always finds Mateo and he’s succumbed to it several times with or without help. However, after running with the wrong kinds of people, he’s decided to turn a new leaf. His attention to detail lands him a job as a tattoo artist, making people’s dreams come true through body art. With this steady gig and his grandmother’s support, Mateo is convinced he can live mostly anxiety free.

Father Lance has always suppressed his needs to care for others. The older alpha is Vale’s most handsome and available bachelor, but Lance has no interest in hooking up. Instead, he puts all his energies into his church. Although loneliness is a constant partner, Lance refuses to let it stand in the way of his goal.

One wintery night, Lance spots a man in need of assistance and immediately calls for help. Despite Lance’s instincts crying out to the victim, he ignores those desires.

As he's being rushed to the emergency room, Mateo feels his destined mate near. Once he recovers, he’s determined to find his forever partner to build the relationship that will stabilize the young omega’s life.

Warning: On page violence and a near death experience.

Breakable Faith is the eighth book in a multi-author series about Vale Valley, a small town open to everyone in need of love and a home. Each installment can be read as a standalone

This story features a tattooed omega that has the hots for the priest. Naughtiness and general unholy thoughts are the running themes in this book. Be prepared to clutch your rosary and have a fan nearby.


Review 
My Rating - 5 Stars!

Slowly introducing myself to more Vale Valley books, I was excited to re-read Michael Mandrake's Breakable Faith. And holy crap, I loved it all over again!

A romance between a priest and his much younger fated mate, it's riveting from the start. 

This story includes some danger, some abuse, and a whole lot of love. Mateo's a young man who longs for a family of his own. He struggles with convincing Lance that they will be good together. Poor Lance is stuck in his ways, has never been with anyone, and has never even been kissed. He's a man who's forced his physical desires be pushed into the back of his mind. Until Mateo.

Lance may be the older man, but Mateo's the experienced one. It's fun seeing them each provide some guidance to the other, despite their age difference. 

And holy hotness. If you're a strongly religious person, beware this one contains altar sex. Taboo much? Sure. But hot and totally fitting to the story? Absolutely.

Breakable Faith is a fabulous read. It's just fun and hot, and needs to be read in one sitting. Yes, it's that good.
