The Friar by Samantha A. Cole

[BLURB]


Adam Westfield is an ex-friar just released from prison. Unsure of his destiny, he roams America, hoping to find a purpose . . . and forgiveness.

A widowed mother of two, Sage Hammond is struggling to keep her horse ranch afloat. Unable to find a ranch hand willing to work for meager wages, she's close to giving up. Then, an answer to her prayers appears--a quiet, handsome stranger.

Adam is falling in love for the first time in his life, however, strange things begin to happen at the ranch--things that are putting Sage and her children in danger--and he finds he's willing to sell his soul to protect them. But will it be enough?

A man trying to overcome his past. A woman trying to secure her children's future. Can they both learn to live in the present and discover that second chances do exist?





[MY THOUGHTS]
3.75 out of 5 stars


The Friar is a romance between a religious man that paid for his sins and a strong single mother trying to keep her ranch afloat. The story is sweet and easy to read. It also has a bit of a mystery and suspense.

Overall it's a solid book. Adam was just a bit too perfect for my taste. Honestly, I didn't find anything special about any of the characters, so to me this was a bit... boring.
