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.

REVIEW:LAYLA by Colleen Hoover is a contemporary, adult, paranormal romance story line focusing on musician Leeds Gabriel, and the woman he loves, Layla.
Told from first person perspective (Leeds Gabriel) using present day and memories from the past LAYLA follows the building romance and relationship between musician Leeds Gabriel, and the woman he loves, Layla. Leeds Gabriel was struggling with his music career, standing in the shadows of the man in charge but meeting Layla, a bit of a free spirit, gave Leeds a hope for the future. Months together would end with an attack on their lives, an attack that changed everything moving forward. With Layla’s mental, physical and emotional health in the balance, Leeds would meet another free spirit named Willow, a young woman who stirred something deep within our story line hero. As Layla’s health continued to deteriorate, Leeds would call in help from an unlikely source.
LAYLA is a story of what-ifs: what if the person you loved no longer was the person with whom you fell in love? From a one-night stand to a promise of forever, destroyed by jealousy and revenge, resulting in dual pathway of questions and confusing answers. Colleen Hoover pulls the reader into a familiar but suspenseful, imaginative and fantastic story of mystery and the supernatural set against a backdrop of friendship and love.
