Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour (and Giveaway!) for Clear Confusion by Kathy M. Howard, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
Title: Clear Confusion
Author: Kathy M. Howard
Publisher: Ambassador International
Release Date: July 1, 2019
Genre: Inspirational Suspense/Thriller
Charlotte Hallaway needs to come to terms with her father's death. He had been her only family, and she wasn't handling her grief well. It was just supposed to be a few weeks of peace and quiet to process it all, but then she saw them-a drug deal and a murder within seconds of each other.
And they saw her.
Now running for her life, Charlotte boards a bus to escape her pursuers and wakes up the next morning in the woods of Jennings, Georgia, without a memory of how she got there or of who she is. All she knows is an underlying fear she can't seem to shake.
When two hunters find her battered and scared, can she put aside the clear confusion she's experiencing to trust them? She wants to trust them, especially Nicholas, but fear is holding her back. Trust is incredibly hard when one is so clearly confused. Could it be he and his friend are not who they claim to be?
Who are they really . . . and who is she?
Kathy M. Howard resides in south Georgia with her husband and two children. She has been involved in some form of education since 1998 as an elementary school teacher, a private school principal, and presently as a homeschooling mom. As a child, she despised reading, dreading every assignment the subject gave. As an adult, Kathy finally learned to appreciate the written word, so much so that she is rarely seen without her nose in a book.
She loves the Lord and wants to share Jesus where she can, using words written and spoken. By God's goodness and with the support and love of her family, she has written two novels, From Dishes to Snow (October, 2014), and its sequel, From Driftwood to Sapphire (August, 2015).
From the very start Clear Confusion kept me guessing and wondering what exactly had happened, and who was responsible. It is just what I look for in a good suspense. Each turn of the page brought new twists, turns and surprises right through the very end. To be honest, about halfway through the book- and around the time that our lead character's memory returned- I thought I had it all figured out. In fact, I thought to myself it was a bit of a disappointment to have the memory returned and the mystery revealed so early on in the story. Boy, was I wrong. Just when I'd thought it was all worked out and solved, more secrets were revealed that I NEVER saw coming. And I absolutely loved it.
As a Christian suspense, I really loved the message throughout about God's goodness, forgiveness and faithfulness. Even if we do not know who we are, He is with us through it all, and that is a message that stands out within these pages very well.
Overall, it was a great read and one that I would certainly recommend- the perfect blend of suspense, drama, romance and inspiration.
