Whisper the Name "Verity" and Secrets Will Follow... Nestled amidst the shivering mists and haunting whispers of New York, Verity by Colleen Hoover is a spellbinding tapestry of dark desires, twisted secrets, and the tormenting love that ebbs in the hearts of the broken.
Lowen Ashleigh, a struggling writer, finds her life marinating in a cocktail of grief and disillusionment until she's offered an unexpected lifeline. She is commissioned to complete the bestselling series of the enigmatic Verity Crawford, who is enveloped in the icy clutches of an accident that has silenced her once vibrant mind.
As Lowen steps into Verity’s sprawling, dark mansion, she waltzes with shadows that threaten to devour her sanity. Enticed by the mysteries that twist through the grandeur, she stumbles upon an unpublished autobiography of Verity. The parchments seep with ink that drips the raw confessions of a soul lost to chaos. As Lowen delves deeper, her heart is ensnared by Jeremy, Verity’s devastatingly handsome husband, who is trapped in a tragic waltz of loss and longing.
The air thickens with secrets, and love slithers into crevices of shattered hearts. But, oh dear reader, nothing is as it seems. Verity is a labyrinth, and as Lowen tries to unravel it, she must ask herself - Can love heal the shadows, or will it become one?
