Two monks in love...

1485: Paul timidly enters Darenth Priory to avoid marriage. In good faith, he expects to live out his days in chaste devotion to God. But there is temptation lurking within the monastery walls.

For there is also another novice, Luke, who both resembles and sings like an angel. Is he a test? A gift? Paul must decide.

Can these two young men venerate love alongside liturgy? Or will they be cast out?

A religious yet irreverent story awaits.

NB This is a work of fiction about what may have been, told in first person POV; a positive, realistic LGBTQ+ story which probably happened many times over and deserves now to be shared in the light with love.

As England moves from the Medieval to the Tudor era, attitudes may be different than expected, even for Benedictine monks in the Catholic Church.

There are scenes of a mature nature, which require patience to discover.

Includes improper use of candles.
