Psychology student, Grace Fleming, is addicted to meaningless hook-ups in random places, impulsively following a script for self-destruction and bad behavior. She suffers from nightmares and a patchwork of flashbacks that leave her in a fugue state. Unsure what they mean, she goes to therapy, seeking answers. Is her mind conjuring them up or are they past encounters she’d blocked out?Saint is a … out?
Saint is a private investigator of dubious character. He will take almost any case, but his favorite includes entrapping married women into infidelity. Saint is hired to keep a watchful eye on Grace while keeping his identity a secret. The paradox tempts him; is Grace, a devil in disguise or an angel with a crooked halo? When he finds himself in a compromising position, Saint quits. He soon regrets resigning when he discovers a sinister threat to her safety, and it may be the reason for the nightmares.

I Really liked this story, it was very very descriptive and painful to see what Grace went through and it is raw and real, a sex addict being abused at a very young age with very intense flashbacks and memories and with her therapist and Saint
being hired for protection which came off strong but I liked how he handled things they just had that instant connection Saint having his own issues. Grace is a survivor and tries so hard not to be a victim and I loved her strength to just live on. It was a dysfunctional family but their was so much love their. Wonderfully written with intense dark scenes so prepare yourself.
This book grabs you from the beginning and doesn’t let you go until the end. Grace is a psychology student struggling to remember what happened to her as a young teen. Whatever it was, she has difficulty coping with her feelings of shame. She has utilized cutting, attempted suicide, and most recently participates in promiscuous sexual behaviors.
As Grace tries to find her memories, she meets Sawyer Saint Gabriel who vows to protect her. While Grace continues to discover her memories, her family explores the past to figure out who her tormentor is. Will her family survive when secrets and revenge find their way to the surface? How will Grace react to the truth when it finally comes out?
The Confessional is a very unique story that not only is it a romance story, but of also about a person who endured sexual abuse and recovery. This story left a mark on my heart and was a tragic and beautiful story with hope.
