Verity by Colleen Hoover

Synopsis:

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford , the  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 of he were to read his wife's words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth his horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue to love her. 

This was August "Buddy Read" with my friend, Kayleigh. She picked this one out. Boy, am I glad she picked this one. This was my first Colleen Hoover book. it is very different from all her previous romance books. 

I went into this book completely blind. I had no idea what it was about. I knew what genre Colleen Hoover wrote, but I also saw that Tarryn Fisher called it a "Creepy Thriller." I've only read one of Tarryn Fisher's books and I also follow her on INSTAGRAM so I've seen that she's pretty dark (which I LOVE), but for Tarryn to call this creepy, i knew I was in for a WILD ride. I had NO idea it would anything like this. There's no way anyone could've seen this great of a book coming. 

MY RATING :

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ / 5

This book literally took me 24 hours to read. I couldn't put it down. I needed to know what would happen next. And next. And Next. I loved it. For my first Colleen Hoover book, I am in awe. I loved this book. I will buy every single person I know a copy of this book to read. I loved it that much. The twists this book took is something that I did not see coming.

I just have one message for Ms. Colleen...…….

PLEASE MAKE A SQUEAL FOR THIS BOOK!!!!! I NEED MORE! I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE BABY IS BORN!

 

I must say, in the parts in Verity's manuscript where she was describing her passion to Jeremy were HOOOTTT!!! If these are the scenes in a suspense novel, I cant wait to read a romance novel by Colleen. 

Now , unfortunately this is usually the part where I find some discussion questions online and I answer a few . It’s actually my favorite part. No, I’ve searched high and low for discussion questions for this title and came across nothing. I’m not sure why there’s no questions out there because this s such an amazing book! Maybe I’ll just start writing my own questions.... that’s something to think about. If anyone has any discussion questions to pass along to me , that would be great!

Until next time..... ☮
