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.

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.

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

I had heard so many mixed reviews on Layla and wasn't sure if it would hold up to the hype of Verity, as some people said. Well, it did! Verity and Layla are both thrillers but two very different kinds of thrillers. it was a great paranormal twist and the plot twist had my mouth on the floor. Chills the whole day! I couldn't put the book down and finished it in a few hours. Read this book!

Easily one of the most captivating books! Although not talked about as often as the author's other books, this book is absolutely 10/10. Hoover leads you down several twists and turns. It won't be easy to put the book down and will leave you wishing there was more! The ending was like a pot of gold. Highly recommend!

I ended up closing this book & not finishing it at chapter 17. I love Colleen Hoover so much but this book was just weird. I’m obsessed with weird paranormal things but this book just couldn’t keep me interested.

I am an avid book reader and I can’t figure out why people like this book. It’s so weird, and the characters are not well developed. The entire plot line seems like a terrible lifetime movie.
