Hello! I’m on the lookout for novels that explore the complexities of forbidden romance, specifically those between a priest and a nun. I’m intrigued by the moral and ethical dilemmas that such relationships often entail. If you’ve come across any books that delve into this theme or have captivating narratives around forbidden love in a religious context, I’d love to hear your recommendations. Feel free to share your thoughts or any insights you have on the books. Thank you!
