In the beginning, there was him.
Gutsy, green-eyed Eleanor never met a rule she didn't want to break. She's sick of her mother's zealotry and the confines of Catholic school, and declares she'll never go to church again. But her first glimpse of beautiful, magnetic Father Søren Stearns and his lust-worthy Italian motorcycle is an epiphany. Suddenly, daily Mass seems like a reward, and her punishment is the ache she feels when they're apart. He is intelligent and insightful and he seems to know her intimately at her very core. Eleanor is consumed—and even she knows that can't be right.
But when one desperate mistake nearly costs Eleanor everything, it is Søren who steps in to save her. She vows to repay him with complete obedience…and a whole world opens before her as he reveals to her his deepest secrets.
Danger can be managed—pain, welcomed. Everything is about to begin.
Read Chapter 1 of The Saint via Scribd:
What more can I say? I freaking LOVED The Saint!!! Like seriously, I thought that I couldn't love Father Søren Stearns any more, and then there's this!
I loved:
The Cabin Scenes- There is a certain person that meets Nora in a remote cabin, and they share a few intimate days together. I liked that interaction, but more, Nora loves everyone, and you can see some of that here.
Søren- Oh GOD! I loooovvvvveeeee him!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every word of the flashback scenes- The flashback scenes are similar to the ones that we got in The Mistress, but the story is from the POV of teenage Elle, and the beginning of her relationship with Søren. I get butterflies just thinking about it. The flashbacks are absolutely one of my favorite parts of the series.
Søren-
"Little One, to be with me is to hurt."
"To be with out you would hurt more. You won't scare me off. I'm not afraid of you.
"If I had something valuable, I'd lock it up."
He smiled at her.
"I plan to."
Teenage Nora- From reading The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty in church, to getting arrested, young Elle was very entertaining! I would read her POV forever.
"Do you have any idea what it is you have between your legs?" she demanded.
"I'm well aware of what it between my legs." He said the words without even breaking a smile.
The Sex Scene Between Søren and Nora-
I didn't care for:
Not enough Kingsley :'( There were very few scenes featuring the King and I would have liked about 100% more, though we got to read and learn more about Nora and Søren's relationship. I just can't get enough of him!
The trickery- I'd like to say a bit more about it, but will not ruin the book. I will say that the hints at the beginning of the book ATE at me, and I would not put the book down until I figured out what was going on. I was about to go stabby on Tiffany (sorry), but luckily I made it through to the end and could breathe easy.
The lingering questions- I still had questions from the bombshell that was given to us from the ending of The Mistress.. I think that the surface was grazed on most of them, but just not enough for me.
Overall it was amazing. I've already read it twice! TWO TIMES it is that good! I can't wait for the next book!!
