  This is a summary & it does not accompany the official. 
  In "Verity" by Colleen Hoover, Lowen Ashleigh, a struggling writer facing financial hardship, accepts a life-changing job offer from Jeremy Crawford. Jeremy's wife, Verity Crawford, a bestselling author, is unable to complete her successful book series due to injury, and he hires Lowen to finish it. 
  Upon arriving at the Crawford residence to sort through Verity's notes and outlines, Lowen stumbles upon an unexpected treasure: an unfinished autobiography that Verity never intended for anyone to see. As she reads page after bone-chilling page, including Verity's account of a tragic family event, Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy to spare him further pain. 
  However, as Lowen's feelings for Jeremy grow stronger, she begins to see the potential advantages of revealing Verity's shocking revelations. She realizes that the truth within the manuscript could profoundly impact Jeremy's feelings for his wife, and this realization forces her to confront a difficult moral dilemma. "Verity" is a gripping tale of secrets, love, and the devastating power of hidden truths.
