Publisher's summary

From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Clarissa Wild comes a new off-the-charts novel that will make you feel filthier than ever...

Confess your sin.

People call me Father, but I prefer Frank, because I'm the worst preacher you'll ever meet.

Days spent completely wasted pull a number on you, especially when you've got a truckload of baggage that comes with it.

Until this beautiful girl in the back of the church takes my breath away.

And we end up committing sacrilege in the confessional.

Did I mention I'm filthy?

Bad doesn't even begin to describe me, and after one taste of what she's got to offer, I want more. Too bad having a dirty mind isn't the only thing we've got in common...

Our past is laced with sin.

Author's Note: This audiobook is not for everyone. It's raw. It's vulgar. It's downright offensive. But it's oh so damn delicious with a capital D. If you are easily offended, please don't listen to this audiobook. But if you like a bit of humor mixed in with raunchiness and brawling, you'll love this audiobook.

Well. I never.

Well. I never. No wonder people are going crazy with this book! Frank is one sexy, dirty kind of man. At first, I didn't know how I would feel, considering he a supposed-preached. But pushing that aside, this was an interesting read/listen. Gregory Sutton did an epic job narrating. I could definitely see the book as a movie in my head. There's not female narrator since its only in Frank's perspective. But it was still good.

Hilarious 😂

This is the funniest book I’ve read in a while! I was laughing so hard when I was getting ready for work, my husband came to check on me. Frank is all kinds of messed up, but he is so straight forward with people that it’s just funny. I won’t be forgetting the lady in the confessional talking about her son any time soon! Still, there was plenty of the dark and spicy stuff too. Frank has a very nasty mouth! 🔥🔥 I really enjoyed the book, but I only gave it four stars because the overall story was really strange in a lot of ways. A few things were missing to make it complete for me. That’s all I can say without spoilers. The narrator did a wonderful job, but his voice didn’t quite match up with the character to me. I would recommend this book, it was very entertaining.

Forgive me father...

Any additional comments?

Oh. My. Gosh. **wipes sweat from brow** Is it hot in here? It's definitely hot in here.

This audiobook is AWESOME. Clarissa Wild delivers a fan-freakin-tastic story, and like all of her other audiobooks, the narrator most definitely delivers a stellar performance.

I definitely recommend checking this out.

HOWEVER

This was definitely an exciting read: great, interesting story with well thought out character development. So many surprises along the way as if Clarissa Wild were slowly unfolding an entire world for the readers. The writing is saucy and thrilling, and "fuck me" it was sexy. I think all listeners are due some confessions after listening. The narrator, Gregory Sutton is perfect and gives each character their own identity and personality. I really felt like I was listening to a pro story teller and fantastic actor. Very interesting to hear a male take on characters of different gender, backgrounds, ages, all written by a female. The narrator shifted so easily from tender Father Frank to a more aggressive and sex dominating Frank, to sweet siren Laura, to young, inquisitive Bruno and to rough El Campion (to name a few). I am in awe at how Sutton carried dialogue that balanced between conversational and also during saucy, intimate scenes. very hot stuff, excellent listen. "fuck me"

Over dramatic.

My goodness, I love both narrators but seriously too much drama the female narrator was way to annoying for me, dear writer please make your characters more tolerable and less stupid while handling fictional problems. I mean seriously I think you can do better. Dear female narrator I hope you found being so annoying made you hate yourself for putting up with it.

Father

Clarissa Wild tells the story of a pastor who has lost his way and the road he takes to redemption. Frank has been disillusioned by life and becomes careless and somewhat stagnant in performing his duties as a man of God. He falls victim to doubt and self castigation until he meets Laura who soothes his restless soul. Their relationship is fraught with complications and unexpected revelations but they eventually get their HEA! Gregory Sutton does a great job narrating!

Freaking amazing

I had read the book when it was released and I remember saying 'wow this author knows how to write'. I remember being consumed by the book and loving it from the first page till the last.... Now I am beyond words.... I think Clarissa Wild had an amazing book now along with this narrator they took the book to new levels.
I love how much he is in the book. He lives it, breathes it. He is Frank the Preacher.
This book was dark and twisted already but now... Wow..... Wow!
A totally new experience!!!!!

Darkish romance. 1POV. HEA. Standalone

This is a darkish romance. It is a sizzling story and if having sex in a church offends you.... this book isn’t for you.

Perfect! I love the narrator's deep voice!

I just LOVED this book! Clarissa Wild brings us on such a naughty story! Wild tells a well written story that you will fly through! This was such a taboo story… not as dark as some of her more recent ones. Still, I enjoyed it immensely! I didn't expect the story to have thriller/suspense elements so I was pleasantly surprised by that.

I loved the characters and would love more from all of them. Oh man, oh man… those naughty bits were ah-mazing! I mean yowzas! HOT! The writing and descriptions were just on point! I love Wild’s writing. I mean, I could feel my checks flame with some blushing hearing Gregory Sutton's deep voice saying them to me!

Father is a story of a man going back full circle righting the wrongs of his past. It would appeal to readers looking for a taboo read with a dash of humor. Sutton's voice is on point with the Father. It was as if this book was written for him! I love the humor that Wild sneaks in!
