Summary from Goodreads:
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.
Review:
From the very first page, Hoover plunges readers into a world of suspense, secrets, and spine-chilling twists that will leave you breathless.
The characters are flawlessly crafted, each one more complex and intriguing than the last. As the story unfolds, layers of deception are peeled away, revealing shocking truths that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Wow, that plot twist at the end. I love Colleen Hoover. Her books are always unique and intense. She writes about hard issues and I really appreciate how she doesn't shy away from any of it.

This story really dug deep. It was gritty and spicy. By the end I couldn't put it down and had to know the truth. But will we ever know what the truth is? Maybe not.
