‘Hoover will pull heartstrings in this second-chance love story… edgy, sexy’Booklist
From the bestselling author of It Ends With Us, a novel about risking everything for love – and finding your heart somewhere between the truth and lies.
Auburn Reed has her entire life mapped out. Her goals are in sight and there's no room for mistakes. But when she walks into a Dallas art studio in search of a job, she doesn't expect to find a deep attraction to the enigmatic artist who works there, Owen Gentry.
For once, Auburn takes a risk and puts her heart in control, only to discover that Owen is keeping some major secrets from coming out. The magnitude of his past threatens to destroy everything important to Auburn, and the only way to get her life back on track is to cut Owen out of it.
The last thing Owen wants is to lose Auburn, but he can't seem to convince her that truth is sometimes as subjective as art. All he would have to do to save their relationship is confess. But in this case, the confession could be much more destructive than the actual sin…

God, this story pulled on my heart. With the concept of random strangers confessions becoming art, its addictive! Reading all these confessions, putting things in prospective. Opening yourself to your own confessions. I’m not sure about anyone else but this book definitely made me think hard about what my confessions would be. I found it very validating. I don’t know how Colleen Hoover comes up with these ideas, but please don’t ever stop!
I felt for Auburn and her struggles she faced in this book, her character had spent years being belittled and bullied by her family. She grew in strength throughout the book with Owen’s support. Be aware I’m trying hard to avoid spoilers here. I want everyone to experience those surprising moments throughout this book. I’ll just say it was really nice to read a female protagonist who was introverted, and not in the shy way of inexperience. But a quiet personality. She had a silent strength that really showed itself toward the end of the book and she was willing to do anything for those she loves.
Owen. I’m pretty sure he just space jumped right to the top of my book boyfriend list. A talented artist that is holding so many secrets, who only has three contacts on his phone.
I spent the beginning of the book loving him, the middle of the book wondering how Colleen could create this amazing character and then put him in these situations that I just couldn’t make sense of, at the time. But true to her work, and again with the ‘wait…what?’ and ‘Ahh‘ moments, it all makes sense when the book begins to wrap up. Then I loved him even harder. Owen is, everything, all at once.

Highly recommended.
I loved this book, really loved it. The characters were so real and the emotions were real, so we're mine. I cry in every book you write. I think if you can cry in a book you capture the true characters and soul of the story.
Loved it, Loved it and bloody loved it!

the ending was perfect and so beautiful that it made up for the uneventful first part of the book.
if you're looking for a hot and steamy romance book, this is NOT IT. but if you're looking for a written in the stars, beautiful type of love story, it's exactly that. colleen's mind amazes me.


So I found out I can watch the series on this book on amazon prime so I needed to read this first before I watch the series and got though this so quickly. .
.
I love Colleen writing it’s so easy to read, I loved the characters Auburn and Owen immediately and how guilt shapes each character that gets you right in the heart. The confess plot was clever and I loved the concept of the interpretation on “confessions” it’s a must read. .
.
A bonus as Owen is an artist there is images of his art in this book

I can't believe how long it has taken me to actually pick this book up and read it! It's been sat on my bookshelf for over 2 years but it somehow never quite made the cut when it came to me choosing my next book. Thankfully, the book being made into a TV series kicked me into gear and I finally picked it up, and then couldn't put it down until I had read the entire thing!
This story was unique and beautiful and featured two characters who I immediately connected with. Sure there were some parts of the story that I guessed at (as we all do with most romance novels), but there were other parts that I just didn't see coming and that flawed me. The romance is so much deeper then even I was expecting and there is a strong sacrifice theme running through it too which made it the perfect amount of emotional for me.
"I'm scared I'll never feel this again with anyone else," I whisper.
He squeezes my hands. "I'm scared you will."
One reason why I love CoHo books is that they are not filled with drama just for dramas sake, everything that is in there needs to be in there. The entire story line had me gripped and once I (finally!) picked this book up I didn't put it down again until I had finished it. CoHo has this incredible ability to spoon feed us just enough information through out the book that keeps us on the edge of our seats the entire time and when I got to the end of the book and everything was revealed I was stunned to silence.
This book is unique due to it's connection with the art that is both written into it but also featured in the book itself. Danny O'Connor's art work is beautiful in itself, but when combined with the confessions featured in the book it becomes so much more powerful.
One cool thing about this book is that all of the confessions in it came from real people, who anonymously sent them into Colleen. There are some confessions which made my heart hurt, some which made me cry, others which made me smile. But knowing that they had all come from real life people just made their messages so much more powerful than is CoHo had made them up herself.
"I’ll love you forever. Even when I can’t.” My tears fall harder at his words. “And I’ll love you forever. Even when I shouldn't.".

The story is all about Auburn Reed and artist Owen Gentry. The pair meets as if by chance when Auburn finds herself in need of a job and Owen needs a last minute art gallery assistant. After an emotional prologue, the very beginning of the story is so great. It introduces you to Owen’s art straight away and the whole concept behind “Confess”. And it’s such a clever concept! I won’t say much more about it because it’s so great to read about but wow Colleen, 10/10!
Auburn has gone through a lot for her young age and although it is alluded to in the prologue the magnitude of her situation isn’t unveiled until much later in the story, by which time I was so swept up in the chemistry between Owen and Auburn I completely never seen it coming! If anything it makes you appreciate Auburn’s character even more and helps to understand her actions a bit more. The trouble isn’t over for her and the book is a whole rollercoaster of emotions and feelings of regret for the life she’s missing out on and self-sacrifice in order to please other people. It’s a tough read but I just couldn’t put it down.
Owen is quite a complicated character, particularly in Auburn’s eyes as the secrets just keep on coming. Fortunately the story is told in dual POV so you know a little bit more than Auburn and when everything is revealed you just fall in love with him a little bit more. Owen ties the whole story together more than you know throughout and I absolutely LOVED his tie to Auburn.
I really love the cover of this book and after reading it I have a whole new appreciation for it! There is always something more with Colleen’s books whether it’s poetry, music or in this case art. I love that it adds a whole new sensory level to the book and that really sets them apart from the crowd.
I have loved everything I’ve read by Colleen and I’ve even re-read a couple of her books more than once. Confess was such a compelling story that I am sure I will be re-reading it just to be back with Owen and Auburn.
