Valerie
Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
I was born and raised a God-fearing woman, but Father Reed Murphy stoked the fires of hell inside me. I can tell he’s different. Not the same run-of-the-mill priest they keep sending to our town.
And I know what I’m doing is wrong. But why does it feel so right to sin at his side?
Reed
I’m out of my depth and out of my mind.
I play a priest in the parish while dangerous men hunt for my head. It’s not the way I saw my great escape going. But the second my gaze fell on Valerie Garett, she was mine … we just didn’t know it yet.
I’m on the run and locked in place. Stuck in a tiny town with a literal boatload of cash waiting to sail off into the sunset. But I can’t leave without her. She stole my heart with her perfect smile, and I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe.
Good God, up above, I know I don’t do this often.
But tonight, I pray you’ll give me the strength to do what I must.
