Analise
Being broken is never easy.
It’s even harder when it comes at the hands of the one you love.
The weight took my breath, the need to flee became instinctual.

How do you breathe when your heart stops beating?

This book keep me on the edge of my seat as I read it. So many emotions in this book that will keep you reading just to find out what happens .definitely an page Turner for sure ..Kate is such an talented writer I just love reading all of her books
The trials and tribulations of Drake and Analise makes this a real page turner. The ups and downs of marital life complicated by mental health while trying to keep things on an even keel. Family and friends trying to assist with the work load and a terrible misunderstanding makes you want to keep on reading and not putting the book down.
“Sometimes you have to lose yourself to find your way back home.”
I only have one word to describe The Confession by Kate Benson…”INCREDIBLE.” Benson’s talent truly shines in every page throughout the book!
The Confession picks up right where the previous book, The Sacrifice, ended. Drake and Analise are broken, and it will take everything they have within themselves to find their way back to one another. Along the way, we discover what is going on in the lives of those that love Ana and Drake. Because what has occurred between Ana and Drake affects Chase, Sophie, Jack, and Jenna.
I can always count on Benson to evoke emotions from me, but she truly outdid herself in this one. My heart was broken because her characters have become like family to me. I have been invested in them since I read The Promise years ago. The journey each of them has taken hasn’t always been an easy one, but I have certainly enjoyed taking the ride with them.
The book is told from several POVs with each character having their own story to tell. I find it amazing that each one involves a confession of sorts. While we get a look into each of their lives, it never takes away from the fact that this is Drake and Analise’s story. What they are enduring truly impacts the others and the decisions and views they have on life.
Benson’s writing is so unique in that she is a wonderful storyteller and gives you an incredible book, but her writing is like poetry in the way she writes. She utilizes all sorts of imagery that connects me with the storyline and the characters. The characters do endure obstacles and hurt at times, yet she somehow turns it into such a beautiful story. If you haven’t discovered the gem that is Kate Benson, you really need to read her novels. She never disappoints, and I can’t wait to see what is in store for the Ana, Drake, Sophie, Chase, Jack, Jenna, and even Matt because there were surprises along the way!!!!
Kate has done it agian. She has managed to keep me on the edge of my seat, reading The Confession cover to cover in no time!!! The Confession is very well written just as the rest of the promise series. The detail given within Kate’s writing will leave you feeling like these characters are part of your life!!!

I also pre ordered this book the day it became available to preorder because the wait has been killing me.
This latest installment of The Promise series did not disappoint! If you haven’t read the other books before this one- go ahead and buy it but get the others as well!! Then binge read them all together.
My mistake was only re reading book 7 before starting this. I am kicking myself for not starting from the beginning and going on this journey all over again.
After book 7 left my heart pounding I wasn’t sure where Kate would pick up with this one but never fear- Mrs Benson/- as usual brought her A game.
The dynamic between the characters was as real as it gets and extremely well written. I still don’t know how she gets me so invested in these people but she does!!
Without giving away too much information I will say that I laughed a little more than I usually do thanks to my boy Matt but that angsty, gut wrenching thing my belly does was very much working on overtime. Of course I expected nothing less. I will also say that as a reader I appreciate how she transitions to the other characters so easily and doesn’t take away from the focus of Drake and Ana.
Book 9 can’t get here soon enough!!!!

While Drake Mitchell is on the warpath to find Analise, the other family members are battling their own inner turmoil with the consequences of Ana’s disappearance. We revisit the lives of Chase, Sophie, Jack & Jenna. We see if true love will overcome the feelings of anger, fear, guilt & disappointment. And in this book we feel the devastation of Drake, broken & incomplete without his Ana by his side. The author’s writing has you feeling Drake’s loss & frustration, a contradiction to his strong, confident demeanor. An amazing continuance of the series. Anxiously waiting for the next book!
I have no words to describe what Kate has me feeling. Drake and Ana are everything to each other and more. Their story is truly just beginning and it left me drained and emotional. I love this series and how Kate puts so much into mher characters. You won’t be disappointed with this book.
I received an early ARC in exchange for a honest review. Thank you Kate Benson for this opportunity!
As with every book in this series I was blown away with Kate ability to bring readers to their knees.
Then she managed to throw me completely off my axis. I did not see where this book would lead and I couldn’t breath while comprehending the turn of events. It’s truly a emotional roller coaster with every page turned.
This is a love story that is so full of inspiring love, lots of dirty talk (OMG.. GO BABY),and hope that I know it will remain with me for a very long time.
Kate Benson’s words have a way of making you feel every single agony, every single heartbeat, every single butterfly…and they were many. This is a story of healing, and finding your way home.
Congratulations, Kate Benson you have truly outdone yourself and I can’t wait to read what you have planned next!
