Beast
It started with me. Five years ago, she interrupted my menu. I’d never met anyone like her. She didn’t run from me. Mother said they would all run. But despite how much she intrigued me, I had to kill her. It’s part of my job. Yet, when the time came, I couldn’t do it.
Now, five years later, I’m finally out of lockdown. I have a new mission; to take down the Church. Nothing can stand in the way of my new path. However, once again, I find myself drawn to Summer Jones. And even though I don’t deserve her, I can’t let her go.
Summer
I met him at the lowest point in my life. What started out as a desperate attempt to make some fast money turned into a night I'll never forget. He changed my world in one single night and then disappeared.
Now he’s back. I shouldn’t want him around. I should make him go back to wherever he’s been for the last five years. However, no matter how much his absence from my life hurt me, I can’t keep him away from his son.

Can two broken souls find the love and healing they are looking for? Or is it too late for their happily ever after?
Trigger Warning: This book contains violence, drug use, and discussions about suicide.
This is part one of Beast's story, THIS BOOK ENDS ON A CLIFFHANGER.

The Church series focuses on gritty, scarred characters who navigate through a corrupt, “John Wick” underworld to find their rays of light in people they love. As the fourth installment of the universe, this novel is simply thrilling!! The masterful writing, the depth of characters, and the meticulous unveiling of the secrets and puzzles that are pillars of this society are on a cinematic level! Tiya Rayne’s literary catalogue is full of 5-star bangers because, like Beyoncé, when she comes out, she shows out. So excited to see how this story continues to unfold!

Congratulations to the author, this long awaited story didn't disappoint. The character development for all key players (as there's so many stories tied to one) is amazing, not rushed to get to HEA. Loved how highs and lows on mental health issues were addressed, left me tearful in certain instances. I now can't wait for the book 2, Beast and Summer are now my new favorites.

What a great book. It has everything you need action, suspense, sexy as hell and fast paced. Reading this book was like watching a movie on HULU. How dare Tiya make us wait for part two! Please read and recommend this book. It is a great addition to the series. The characters are flawed in the ways that only people can be, but you root for them. It is worth your time

I absolutely love this book!!! If I did not have to work or take care of my kid I would have read this book in one day lol! I will say I am not an author or anything in that capacity but from a readers POV I can tell you took your time with this book. The development of Beast and Summer story is absolutely amazing! Nothing was rushed and the storyline flowed! How you were able to put in their past to show how it shaped their present was great! I love Summer's friend Trina. Her presence was not overpowering because of course the story was about Summer and Beast. I was glad Summer had at least one person in her corner before Beast because her mom and sister were so hateful and jealous of her. I could not stand them. I was waiting for Gabriel and Summer to show out on them lol!! Now I am waiting on book 2 I will not spoil the ending to book 1 but I hope that is not what it really is! I ready for the conclusion on who is who and why!!! I am ready for the puzzle pieces to come together. I think I will go back and read all the books so everything will make sense when book 2 come out. Thank for sharing your mind with us Ms. Tiya Rayne!

This book is packed with action, intrigue, a complicated love story, and a sprinkle of romance. Unfortunately, the ending is a cliffhanger. It looks like the second part will be released in November. This is the only downside to this book, I detest cliffhangers.

I. Can’t. Even.

This whole series is fire. The female leads are all so relatable and each love story is fire, and Beast was well worth the wait. The way the characters we love are sprinkled in as background characters had me screaming bc I love them lol

I love a good series and normally the first guy is always my favorite. But in this series every guy is my favorite and I just have to put them in order. Beast is my first favorite!! Usually never happens that the anchor is my favorite part of a series, but here we are!! Can’t wait for the second part to be released. Don’t wait — I know I know I love finding a complete series, but I promise this is so good you may as well go ahead and get it out the way!!

The book opens with a bang and it's nonstop action from the beginning to the end. I loved getting some of the backstory about how Gabriel and Beast began. All the members of the church series are smart, they might be borderline geniuses, but I think Beast is taking it to a whole new level.

Speechless! I was not expecting this but I have to say I’m not happy with the cliffhanger because I don’t think I have it in me to wait until the next book! Beast and Summer were too cute, made you realise that even with mental problems everyone is deserving of love.
