Reviews with content warning for Infidelity - Verity

This is my latest attempt to try a Hoover book and it will likely be my last. The idea of the book was good but I think the pacing and execution make it unrealistic. The FMC is 32 yet acts like a high schooler in how fast she falls in love with a man she doesn’t know. I feel like if the timeline was spread out more it would make the story more realistic but that’s not the case. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this book.

as much as I hate the author, this book wasn't that bad compare to the rest of her books. It did have some suspense but it wasn't that intense as much as how others have described it and could've been better

im glad i finished binge reading this in 2 nights but what i still wonder is was the manuscript or the letter the truth? And despite either one of them being the truth, all the characters weren't innocent anyway. Also the reason why I'm not taking any sides is cause I'm still confused but I kinda believe that the manuscript was true because how could a mother write something like that about her children especially in details it seems intentionally and real not an excerise to help her with her books although i also kinda agree with the letter cause most of the time the manuscript would yap about sex and bla bla and when verity mentioned on her letter that women arent that obsessed with sex and she truly loved her children and husband plus the manuscript felt too repetitive about sex but i also think the manuscript was true AGAIN because if jeremy planned to kill verity which was mentioned on her letter why would he be taking care of her for 7-8 years? But he's a jerk too like hell I aint defending him like I said all of the characters have their flaws Jeremy killed his wife and lowen was part of it too and kept it a secret plus there was some infidelity going on there and she kept the letter a secret from jeremy before they move on with their lives with a new baby tsk
