  “God has delivered you unto me.”

  Finn can’t help but stare at the charming foreigner’s thick biceps and powerful, masculine frame. It goes against his father’s teachings, but he wants to be alone with this stranger…he wants to fall to his knees. 
  He soon realizes there’s only one thing in life worth worshipping, and it’s between this man’s legs.
