Summary

I'm a gay preacher with more tattoos than sense and more notches on my bedpost than years in the ministry.

You've heard of those romances where the priest is seduced by the worldly outsider? Yeah, this isn't that.

I'm also not totally settled on the existence of God. Call me a skeptic, but when you work with abandoned and abused teenagers, you tend to have a few questions for anyone calling themselves divine.

Having lived in Seguin most of my life, I've always been the troublemaker. Most of my queer friends fled this place just after high school, but we all know that the only reason any of us made it out alive was our shop teacher, Mr. Paige. He lovingly called us his Lost Boys. Now that his health is failing, the Lost Boys are coming together to support him and his family.

To be honest, I may have been more supportive of Mr. Paige's son than was totally appropriate for a guy in a collar. Turns out, just like the Lost Boys, Holden had good reason to leave Seguin all those years ago.

Despite his history, I'm hoping he's willing to find a reason to stay.

The Skeptic is a spicy, emotional romance that features a faithless preacher, a hot nerd, and the phrase, "Forgive me, Father, for I am about to sin."

Well worth your time!



This is one of those books where you spend one quarter in tears of laughter, one quarter in tears of sorrow, 1 quarter in tears of joy and a quarter in just pure enjoyment.

I love this new direction in Kelly Fox’s work. You still have the great characters, the engaging plot, the wonderful communities and those dirty dirty boys! Just perhaps a little less gore.

The character development in this one is so satisfying and I love a good plot where justice is served! And hey! Anders makes his mark too.

As always with this author - well worth your time!
