J.W. Martinez Announces Summer Release of The Devil Wears Tomford, the Next Chapter in the Confessions Series
One month after the release of Confessions of the Broken-Hearted, the momentum behind J.W. Martinez’s Confessions series continues to build. Following the steady success of Confessions of a Former Tradeboy, the newest installment has sparked growing reader engagement and thoughtful discussion across platforms.
Among the most powerful responses has come from the Latino and Hispanic community, where readers have praised the series—particularly its Miami-Cuban representation—for presenting Latino men with the same depth, complexity, desirability, and narrative importance typically afforded to white characters in mainstream literature. For many, the Confessions universe feels both culturally authentic and refreshingly unapologetic.
Now, Martinez is preparing the next evolution of the story.
Set for a Summer release, The Devil Wears Tomford serves as the direct sequel to Confessions of the Broken-Hearted. While continuing the emotional intensity, romance, and psychological intrigue that define the series, this new installment introduces a more polished and refined narrative tone.
This shift is driven by the expanded perspective of Mark Cruz, whose growing presence pulls him deeper into the interconnected lives of the series’ central characters. As Mark becomes more entangled in their ambitions, loyalties, and betrayals, readers will encounter a narrative that feels sharper, more sophisticated, and increasingly intimate.
Currently, the Confessions book series is available through Amazon, Walmart, and Books-A-Million, with negotiations underway for expanded distribution through Barnes & Noble in coordination with the release of the third book in the series.
The Confessions universe was created to spark conversation—about masculinity, desire, identity, power, and the complicated beauty of men navigating love and ambition in modern America.
If the first books were introductions…
The Devil Wears Tomford is where the stakes truly rise.
This summer, the secrets deepen.
This summer… we confess again.
Author’s Note
J.W. Martinez also makes it clear that the Confessions series would not exist without the person who inspired its emotional core.
“None of this would have been possible without the greatest living inspiration in my life,” Martinez shared. “I’ve told him that many times, and I mean it. The heart of this entire project—its passion, its vulnerability, its beauty—comes from him. In many ways, I owe him everything for the success and spirit of this series.”
