One of the things I've done a lot of this year to pass the time has been reading. I've always been a fiction bookworm and during quarantine, there really wasn't much else to do. LOL. So, today I thought I would share my top 5 recent books that I think you guys would love!
(All fiction and in no particular order.)
Happy reading! 💙
"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+.
TRIGGER WARNING: As mentioned above, this book has graphic scenes, including child abuse, that were tough to read. I will say it all "makes sense" in the end. But WOW! This book was intense! Nothing like I've ever read before. I would not be surprised if this was made into a movie.
