Verity

by Colleen Hoover

I believe instant connections exist, but I’m not sure I’m a believer of insta-love. Not in the sense that you know right then and there that you love someone. It takes time to sort through those feelings, and it takes more than one experience with that person. I think that’s how Verity felt about Jeremy. She had a deep and immediate connection with him, but how can you say it’s love right away when there’s a chance you might never cross paths with that person again? Love is something that’s built and nurtured over a period of time, and Verity found it hard to open up to people. She needed that time to admit to herself that what she felt for Jeremy that first night was love at first sight.
