About this listen
One night equals a test of faith for Father Lance....
Trouble always finds Mateo, and he’s succumbed to it several times with or without help. However, after running with the wrong kinds of people, he’s decided to turn a new leaf. His attention to detail lands him a job as a tattoo artist, making people’s dreams come true through body art. With this steady gig and his grandmother’s support, Mateo is convinced he can live mostly anxiety free.
Father Lance has always suppressed his needs to care for others. The older alpha is Vale’s most handsome and available bachelor, but Lance has no interest in hooking up. Instead, he puts all his energies into his church. Although loneliness is a constant partner, Lance refuses to let it stand in the way of his goal.
One wintery night, Lance spots a man in need of assistance and immediately calls for help. Despite Lance’s instincts crying out to the victim, he ignores those desires.
As he's being rushed to the emergency room, Mateo feels his destined mate near. Once he recovers, he’s determined to find his forever partner to build the relationship that will stabilize the young omega’s life.
Warning: Includes violence and a near-death experience. This story is set in an omegaverse with the possibility of male pregnancy.
Breakable Faith is the eighth book in a multi-author series about Vale Valley, a small town open to everyone in need of love and a home. This story features a tattooed omega that has the hots for the priest. Naughtiness and general unholy thoughts are the running theme in this book. Be prepared to clutch your rosary and have a fan nearby.

My parents turned their backs on me, and I’ve done everything since to become successful and show them what they've lost. Only it’s kinda hard to be a success when you’re a walking trainwreck.

Story
There are two things in this world I know to be true: I have terrible taste in men, and all alphas are jerks. You’d think my own pack kicking me out would’ve been a clue to stay away from alphas. Omegas are rare. We’re smaller, weaker, can’t usually get pregnant...all valid reasons for disowning your own family, right? But it only took one night for stupidly handsome Troy Miyu to make me forget all the reasons I should’ve known better. One night to start falling for him, to realize it wasn’t just amazing chemistry we shared, but a true mate bond.

Story
It started out like any normal day. Then the fender bender happened. The guy I collided with drove an expensive car and was drop-dead gorgeous. Too bad he was also a total jerk. We argued over whose fault it was and any other thing that came out of his condescending mouth. Eventually, the police came and we went our separate ways. The insurance companies would have to figure things out. I had a job interview to get to anyway - one I was excited about. Though that excitement changed to disappointment the moment the person interviewing me walked in. The guy from the accident.

opposites attract
I loved the persistence of youth that Matteo had.
He didn't give up on his heart's desire. Naughty Matteo put Father Lance to the ultimate test and I enjoyed his fall to temptation. I enjoyed this couple's story and would read/listen to the follow up book. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Sweet and Steamy
This book captures your attention right from the start. Matteo and Lance are total opposites, yet compliment each other very well. There is plenty of steaminess! I loved the different shifters and paranormal characters. The narrator voiced the youth of Matteo perfectly, as well as the wisdom of Lance.

Unexpected love in Vale Valley
Breakable Faith: A Winter Romance is book 8 in the Vale Valley multi-author series. I really enjoyed this story about Father Lance and Mateo. Mateo is so excited to find his fated mate, his alpha just happens to be a priest. This doesn't deter Mateo in doing everything he can to have the man fate made just for him. Though everyone seems happy for Father Lance finding his omega, he's been celibate for so long and isn't sure how to proceed. Mateo had no problem helping his alpha out in that area. I loved how they took care of their pasts so they could find their future happiness together. This isn't your typical romance but I wouldn't mind more of it.
Narrator Nick J. Russo does a fabulous job.

Awesome Book
I feel so guilty! I was given this audio book as a gift. The book was so good I feel I need to pay for it! This is my first book from this author but it will not be my last! I’m going to buy and start with the first book of the series! I almost never listen to a book before I read it. The words helps me to form a visual of the characters. I normally don’t want the voice to do that but this audiobook narrator was on point with keeping me engaged with the story that I truly enjoyed the book without forming visuals of the characters. I will buy the books and read them as well! Great job Author & Narrator!!
