Layla by Colleen Hoover

 



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.



I have read quite a few Colleen Hoover books now but I have to say this one was the most bizarre one I have read of hers and I actually at one point had to relook at the cover to see if it was a Colleen Hoover as it felt a little more like a Freida McFadden!


I am not one who enjoys books that have a supernatural element so I am not going to lie there did get a point in this book that I felt like this book was going to be a DNF for me after being completely thrown by the turn the book took and thinking what on earth am I reading but I persevered and in a way I am glad that I did because it was certainly unpredictable and I did find I became more intrigued by the outcome.



Would I recommend this one? In all honesty I don't know, but all I can say is have an open mind and be ready and open to embrace the supernatural element. Personally it is not my favourite by this author but I also have to say it is unlike anything I have read before and she certainly has an out there imagination to think this storyline up.
