What would you do if the love of your life was accidently shot and killed....by you? All of your sanity would go down the toilet just like Terelle Chambers. Terelle now spends her days as a patient in a mental hospital in a catatonic state. Yet Terelle has a desire to return to her sanity and the arms of her one true love Marquise and baby girl Markeeta. Terelle has a strong desire that Marquise is alive. Is Marquise alive? Can Terelle recover and reclaim her sanity and old life?
Meanwhile Kai Montgomery is suffering a fate worse than death. Poor Kai was sentenced to prison for the murder of her former lover Marquise. Now the over privileged bi racial rich girl is at the mercy of her ruthless ghettofied fellow inmates. Kai is forced to have sexual romps with correctional officers and foul smelling females. Kai vows vengeance on Terelle, her biological mother(who stole her money) and her rich adoptive parents (who disowned her when she went to prison). Kai is teetering on the brink of sanity and is slowly loosing her mind. If only she can get out of prison... surely justice will be served after all Kai is innocent.
And Marquise? Is he merely a figment of Terelle's imagination? A ghost whispering sweet nothings in her ear?
Allison has done an OUTSTANDING job with this sequel! This book is a must read for everyone who read "Insatiable". No one writes a story like Ms. Hobbs!! The mix of humor, slight perversions, hot sex and truly oddball turn of events is GREAT!!! Can't wait for her next book!!!!

Allison Hobbs is a tantalizingly twisted story weaver! A master, at best, that knows how to suck you into a story and never let you go. I greedily plowed through the first hundred pages anxious to know where she would take me. I needed to know what Kai was up to since the last book Insatiable. I flipped through the next hundred or so pages in awe. I alternated from laughing out loud to shaking my head at their antics I just could not put the book down! I tried to pace myself to allow the book to last but I just couldn't do it. I had to finish. I had to know and I'm left speechless. Some of the phrases she used, I wish I knew someone that I could repeat them too! Read this book and you will know exactly what I mean. This book is truly OUTSTANDING and among my favorites that I will read again and again. Anybody ready to discuss?

... I wonder what goes on inside the head of Allison to come up with some of her stories and plot lines! She takes us back to what, in my opinion, was her best novel to date; Insatiable. The characters are back and so is the drama, it's chock full of sex, sex, sex, and twists that is making this sister famous!

You will HATE Kai! I'm just being honest, this lady (term used loosely... kinda like she is) has got more issues than the Ebony/Jet warehouse. You pray and pray that she will get hers and Allison does a great job of setting her character up. The other characters aren't that swift either because... well... I've seen rocks that have more brains than them. Allison brings the pain again with this novel and you can't help but become a fan.

You will cover your mouth and cringe when you read what happens to Kai in prison and what she DOES in prison! There is one scene that will literally make you feel that pain. There is another scene(s) that will make your mouth drop when you see what happens with Kai and her father and WHERE it takes place! Stop waiting yall! Allison is bad and her books are bad-der!!!!!

Terelle and Kai are back with even more drama than you could ever imagine. Both of these women have lost a lot in their pursuit of Marquise who is now deceased. Terelle has suffered mental breakdown and has been institutionalized after losing her fiancé. But after two years of being in a non-responsive state, Terelle is awakened by a kiss and the voice of her lover Marquise. During her recovery, Terelle clings on to the hope that Marquise is still alive and that they will be reunited once again. But her best friend Saleema thinks she's delusional and worries that Terelle may be too unstable to raise her daughter. Meanwhile, Kai is in prison serving a life sentence for a murder that she did not commit but this still doesn't stop Kai's insane behavior. Kai indulges in numerous prison sexual encounters while her mind is focused on making Terelle's life as miserable as possible.

The Climax is the perfect sequel to Insatiable by Allison Hobbs. This story picks up right where Insatiable left off starting with Terelle's mental breakdown. You will definitely find yourself pulling for Terelle's recovery so that she can get on with her life and be a mother to her little girl. Kai is back and is more diabolical than ever as she tries to get revenge on everyone she believes that has done her wrong including Terelle. Kai's actions were shocking in the first book, but some of the things that she did in this story proved that she was the devil's incarnate. Readers will be extremely delighted to know that Kai's dubious actions will not go unpunished. The Climax is full of heart-stopping drama, intrigue, and steamy sex that makes this book hard to put down. With The Climax, Allison Hobbs has brought a novel that will have you eagerly waiting for her next book.

Okay, let me start off by saying that I am a huge fan of Allison Hobbs, I have read everyone of her books from the time she came out with her first novel, now I just start buying her books without even reading the synopsis because I know that what ever she comes out with is gonna be just as great as the last one. She has a way in drawing her readers into the characters and story. So much so that at one point in the book there was a scene that made me a little squemish, if you are anything like me you can see in your minds eye a scene being played out in your head like a movie, at another point in the book I had to question Terelle's sanity myself. I loved the crazy b*tch Kai, she was hot to trot and crazy as h*ll, you can't help but to like her character although she's the bad girl. All in all Allison delivers yet another great novel, and I can't wait to read anything else she drops. :) Allison you are the best!

this book held my attention from beginning to end. except i did not want saleema to become a goody to shoes but oh well. thanks Allison:)

I am so mad that I was a couple of chapters deep before realizing this is part 2 and I haven't read part 1 yet! (Had I read Zane's intro, I would have known that, lol). But by that time, I couldn't put the book down! Oh well, I'll order part 1 and just re-read part 2! Great work!
