Book Synopsis



A Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover comes a novel that explores life after tragedy and the enduring spirit of love.

When Leeds meets Layla, he's convinced he'll spend the rest of his life with her--until an unexpected attack leaves Layla fighting for her life. After weeks in the hospital, Layla recovers physically, but the emotional and mental scarring has altered the woman Leeds fell in love with. In order to put their relationship back on track, Leeds whisks Layla away to the bed-and-breakfast where they first met. Once they arrive, Layla's behavior takes a bizarre turn. And that's just one of many inexplicable occurrences.

Feeling distant from Layla, Leeds soon finds solace in Willow--another guest of the B&B with whom he forms a connection through their shared concerns. As his curiosity for Willow grows, his decision to help her find answers puts him in direct conflict with Layla's well-being. Leeds soon realizes he has to make a choice because he can't help both of them. But if he makes the wrong choice, it could be detrimental for all of them.

I was skeptical about this book based on the reviews but once I started reading it, I could not put it down! I was able to finish the whole book in one day, I definitely had different emotions throughout the book and the story kept me on my feet, hungry to find out what happens next! This was defined different for Colleen Hoover. I really enjoyed reading this book, I definitely recommend it and will be recommending to friends and family.

Like others have said here, this book does drag up to about half way. It's a slow build up, but worth the read through the end. Awesome plot twist. Someone here said it's predictable, it's not at all. That's why although it drags, it keeps you intrigued. I would recommend this book. I might even actually read it again some day.

Please get this book, this is my first comment ever on a book that I’ve read and this has to be one of my favorites! This book is such a plot twist. Anyone who says it was boring just doesn’t have patience to let a story build. 11/10 rating!!

Colleen Hoover really stepped out of her comfort zone with this and I say she did a pretty good job. I enjoyed this and hope she writes more thrillers-paranormal and psychological !

I really love the majority of Colleen’s books… but this one is the first I had to stop reading about 1/4 in. The story line is somewhat ridiculous, and as other said, drags on for ever.

Some people in the reviews are a bit harsh on this book. I found it fun and interesting. I am not easily entertained by books and this one kept through until the end. Slightly predictable but still fun to read. Would recommend!

If i could put 0 stars I would. Genuinely the worst book i’ve ever read. I am an avid reader and very much enjoy reading. I love colleen hoovers books. She’s an incredible author, but this book was poorly written, it dragged and the storyline was repetitive.

I have read every single Coho book and would rate all of them at least a 7/10 and this is easily the worst at a 0/10. It’s so slow and hard to read. The characters also aren’t very likable. I had to force myself to finish this book and it wasn’t even worth it.

Supernatural twist

I wasn’t hooked on this book like her others. It has a supernatural twist that I wasn’t expecting and I think it was a creative twist for sure. Sweet story line and it needed well. I wouldn’t say it was “terrible” that’s a strong word. I just personally wouldn’t say that. I’ve had books I couldn’t make it through because they were boring but this wasn’t one of them. I always enjoy Colleen Hoover books.

Leah - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
It’s certainly not Colleen’s best book but it was enjoyable and passed the time. The writing was more elementary in this book, reminded me of a young adult/teen novel type of writing. If you want an excellent mystery book by colleen Hoover, skip this one and go straight to Verity
