## Description

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 her family was forever altered.
 
Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents could 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 loving her.

### ★★★ Not as advertised — r-s-curtis
I picked this up because it was sold as a great modern paranormal horror.  It was anything but.  This turned out to be a pretty transparent thriller with minor paranormal set dressing.  While the concept wasn't bad, I figured out what was happening very early on which completely disarmed the "big twist".  I also wasn't prepared for or wanting the graphic sexual aspects of this book.  I guess if you enjoy thin plot bodice rippers, you may enjoy this.

### ★★ (Untitled) — kristin
Ever feel like an author is giving you the finger? Like they spin a tale and then throw in the “twist” at the end that destroys the setup instead of making sense of it? Yeah, that’s this book. Why do people like this? Masochists perhaps. I rebuke this book.
