Verity - Colleen Hoover Review

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 her family was forever altered.Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents could 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 loving her.

I am a huge fan of Colleen Hoover. I have already read quite a few of her books. I have read a lot of her novels, but this was the first thriller I have read of hers. I wasn't quite sure what to expect from it at first. I was extremely curious about this new story.

I did have to get into the story first. Since I am used to reading novels by her, I had to get used to this new genre. Once I got into the story I was glued to the book immensely. I could not get enough of this story. The story is tremendously suspenseful. The questions kept coming and the tension rose to the top. The story just kept getting crazier and crazier.

I found the character of Verity enormously fascinating yet quite a bit creepy. I had suspected from the beginning of the book that there was much more to the story than the appearances that were made at first. That ending really left me open-mouthed.

I hope she will write more thrillers because I really thought this book was more than great!!!
