Verity by Colleen Hoover
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
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 what really happened the day her daughter died.
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.

I don’t want to give anything away in this review because this is the kind of book you have to read and find out little by little what is really going on. I will say a few things because I know many people don’t like anything with a love triangle. This isn’t a love triangle, but there are feelings of guilt involved. All I can really say besides that is that this book was AWESOME!
I love a book with a completely original plot which is also totally unpredictable. Every time I thought I knew what was going on, I ended up completely surprised by what happened next and the ending was totally crazy. This was told from two POV’s, Lowen and Verity. So the audio was two female voices. It usually bothers me when female’s read the male voice even when that section is from a female POV, but it didn’t bother me at all this time. The book was so good I just cant say enough!
