This novel picks right up where The Kiss of Judas leaves off. It takes more twists and surprising turns just as the first. Keep an eye out for the third installment, The Eleventh Hour.
The driven Jermaine Grant appears to have it all together on the surface. He's young, handsome, and headstrong with the perfect job and faithful love planted at his side—so it seems. What happens when all of this is threatened by a looming incident from the past? In the midst of chaos, Jermaine unexpectedly finds himself battling a demon that seems to be the fiercest of them all.
Jermaine's number one counterpart, Nia Thomas, strives to be just as successful at her career as her determined boyfriend of two years. She skillfully juggles a double life while struggling to keep her carefully designed mask from shattering to pieces. Nia's private world is threatened despite her attempts to conceal a secret that could change her family's future forever.
A heartbreaking disclosure spiral lives into a startling off course collision. What happens when confessions are revealed without consent? Whoever thought telling a lie would hurt so much?

Good for the Soul
In the second part of this trilogy, Allen keeps the reader turning pages. The pace is fast and the characters are characters that you can sympathize with, cheer for and dislike. Allen keeps up the excitement as she takes the reader on a ride which twists through roads of intrigue and mystery. At the end, the reader is left breathless and anxiously awaiting the final part of the story.
If you like romance with its set of complications and conflict, Confessions is definitely good for the soul.

Gone but not forgotten...
Renee Allen has penned a very poignant novel filled with secrets, lies and deceit. All this mayhem coupled with the after-affects of the loss of a loved one is enough to send one over the edge of insanity. Isaiah's presence is felt throughout the book and while reading this book, I found myself wondering if any of my deceased loved ones were sitting beside me. Although the plot and characterization are on point, the little "umph" which would make this novel an above average read is missing. I am however, patiently awaiting The Eleventh Hour, the follow-up to CONFESSIONS.
