    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
    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.

    Retired schoolteachers and amateur sleuths Liz, Pat and Thelma have a brand-new mystery to solve in this wonderfully witty cosy mystery. 
    Retired schoolteachers Pat, Liz and Thelma don’t know what to think. The death of Neville Hilton is not a crime. Just your standard, if tragic, heart attack. At least that’s what the autopsy shows. 
    But his ex-wife isn’t convinced. She’s sure the current Mrs Hilton is involved – maybe she wasn’t at some horse event, as she told police. 
    And so the three friends step away from their slices of cake to investigate. 
    As the trio delve into the village’s secrets, they uncover more than they bargained for – angry residents with old grudges and the echoes of a damning report that ruined lives all those years ago… 
    Can these unlikely sleuths untangle the web of lies and uncover the truth before anybody else dies?

    When the local authorities ask Ruby Simpson to help them find a thief in the small town of Castle Cove, she doesn’t have much of a choice. She predicted the most recent theft, and the cops have no other leads. There are just two small problems. One, she’s not psychic. 
    Two, she’s not Ruby Simpson. 
    Okay, maybe they’re not small problems. But Charlotte needs a place to lay low with her younger sister, somewhere her parents won’t find her and the locals won’t ask too many questions. Getting involved with the cops, especially Deputy Jared, isn’t a smart thing for a reformed con artist to do. But Charlotte has to make a choice: raise her little sister on the right side of the law or put food on the table. What the real Ruby doesn’t see in her crystal ball won’t hurt her, right?

    Not only is he looking forward to visiting the quaint Bavarian town, but since the town is known to visitors as a Christmas town, he sees this as a way to recreate the holiday spirit and finally make a commitment to both April and her daughter. 
    What Jerry doesn’t expect is to be drawn into a bidding war at a local estate sale or play referee to two spirits who discover he can see them and demand he help settle their differences. 
    Just when Jerry thinks he has things under control, the Ghost of Christmas Past makes his presence known in the merry little town, causing things to feel a tad less jolly. 
    Will Jerry be able to restore the status quo in the beautiful Christmas town in time to ask April to be his bride before they return home? Or will his plan be thwarted by things beyond his control? 
    Find out when Jerry, Gunter, and the gang return in Merry Me, book fifteen of The Jerry McNeal Series.
