A thriller mystery romance novel about a ghostwriter who is given the job of writing novels for a busy writer named Varity but finds something dark while researching the material for her job.
I was not expecting this kind of dark novel from an author like Colleen Hoover who mainly writes romance novels. It's bleak, graphic, and mysterious. The author perfectly captures the suspenseful aura and fast-paced action of a thriller.
I think the main plot twist was amazing but the ending may disappoint some non-fans and some fans alike but maybe it was intentional and it is better if I keep it to myself for the sake of keeping this review spoiler-free. I believe the writing was brilliant and the author is very clever to do what she did with this story.
As I am always saying, if you hate the characters, it means the writer has done his/her job perfectly so don’t hate the book and the writer for that.
As we can expect, it is not just all thrills and suspense, you are going to find a lot of romance in this story, simply because it is written by a romance author and mainly because the story demands it to be a thriller and a mystery with suspense.
Warning:
This book is extremely graphic and intended for adult readers. This is without a doubt the most graphic novel I've ever read in this genre. It is creepy and suspenseful with a hundred percent adult theme that uses a language that is not for everyone.
Overall not a bad novel but for some readers, it is going to be a disappointment, so don’t read it with high expectations and especially don’t think about it as your typical romance novel. This way you are going to like it way better.
Synopsis:
“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.
A standalone romantic thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover.”
