Verity by Colleen Hoover

Verity

by Colleen Hoover

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. 

Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read. Page after page of bone-chilling admissions, including Verity's recollection of the night their family was forever altered. 

Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents would devastate the already grieving father. But as Lowen's feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife's words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth this horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue to love her. 

Due to graphic scenes and mature content, this book is recommended for readers 18+.

CHRIST ON A CRACKER this was a damn fantastic book! I legit seem to be in the minority with having never read a single book by this author before, and I am still not sure her romances are my jam, but if she writes anymore psychological thriller type stories I will be at the head of the line trying to get my grubby hands on an early copy!





I am not going to say too much about the book. It is one of those stories that is best gone into blindly. It was amazingly written and had me hooked from the first page. The pace was pretty much perfect. The plot was intricate and well developed. There were plenty of twists and turns. A little bit of romance. A smidge of sex, and an ending that was jaw-dropping. Not bragging, but I am super good at Sherlocking out twists, but yea...little Miss Me DID NOT see that coming.

Nothing really left to say; this was one of the best books I have read this year. Way to squeak it in under the wire Miz Hoover (lol).
