The Climax

Insatiable #2

by Allison Hobbs

From the bestselling author of Pandora's Box and Insatiable comes the story of two women whose lives are consumed by their rivalry for the same man.
A seductive tale of lust and revenge, The Climax charts the entangled lives of two women - Terelle and Kai - who have both suffered irrecoverable losses in their pursuit of Marquise, who is believed to be dead.
Kai is in prison, and Terelle suffered from a mental breakdown after losing her fiance. After two years of catatonia, Terelle is awakened by a sweet and mysterious kiss, and the voice of her lost love. As Terelle recovers, she clings to the idea that Marquise (who is the father of her child) is still alive and out there, waiting to reunite with her. She goes into grueling rehabilitation in order to find a way back to him, all the while enduring the concern of loved ones, who think she is delusional. At the same time, Kai is jailed for a murder she didn't commit, but that doesn't stop her wanton behavior. Not a day goes by that Kai doesn't plot a wicked revenge on Terelle. Throughout steamy prison encounters, and despite a lifetime sentence, Kai vows that Terelle will never know a moment of peace, so long as she lives.

I started this on 9.25.2010 in the morning and finished it that night. This is a book about a ssycho sex crazed addict who seduces dumb men who are too weak to know when they have a good woman at home. This is definitely filled with drama from start to finished. I think there was too much detail. I scanned through alot of the pages. There are a lot of twists in this. You should read it.

After Insatiable, I had to read the follow up which was great. Again was still crazy as hell.

This book was a hot sizzling page turner. If you like Zane books than you will love this novel. It was on some of that new erotic writing. Allison Hobbs did her thing on this one.

Climax was so entertaining.... because of Kai's crazy theatrics and what this confused mixed raced girl would do to get her way in life...

Even though the story was not based on Kai, she stole the show because I could not get past all the things she would do...STILL SMH...

Some of her issues and ways of getting over were just down right gutter, but I could not stop reading....

The main characters Terrell and Marquis, well even though I was intrigued with their undying love, I let their little relationship problems fall to the back of my mind.

I would love to have a story simply about Kai,,,, she was just that tragically pyscho-nympho kind of character that made you keep reading no matter how bad her actions...

Pageturner Alert!!!

This sequel was sooo good. Just when I thought Kai Montgomery couldn't get any crazier, she did! In this sequel the story opens up with Terelle in a mental hospital, Kai in prison and Marquise nonexistent to both women in love with him. Allison Hobbs created an exciting and entertaining tale that will keep readers turning the pages well past their bedtime! You have to read the prequel Insatiable to understand what's going on.

Highly recommended to Allison Hobbs fans!

This book was pretty good not her best work but a good read, it was,slow st some parts but it eventually picked up and held my attention. Kai's antics were hilarious, especially when she had Marquise shackled like a runaway slave and she couldn't get him to have sex with her so she climbed on top of him and rode his toes lol My mouth fell open and I lmao #Done. Check it out if you haven't.

This book was ok. Better than the prequel, but I feel neither book should have been written. I am glad this ended the way it did but I definitely wouldn't have missed anything if I didn't read either. If you feel as if you HAVE to read these books...borrow them.

This was an okay novel. There were some scenes I loved and others I could do without. This is definitely not a book I see my self picking up at a later date and re-reading just because I love the characters.

It was a good way to end the story.

[E.A. DeBoest · Rating 5 out of 5]

There are so many WOW moments that it was hard to put this book down! It was sexy, kinky, wild, and crazy! (dirty too, but not in a delicious way)
There's a prison scene that will have you vocally loud and really enthralled!
