Publisher Description

“Had me up until all hours, furiously flicking the pages to see how it was all going to play out… Takes you on one heck of a suspenseful and twisty ride!” Once Upon A Time Book Blog, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


I love him. I trust him. But what if I’m wrong?


My life should be perfect.


I’ve moved to my fiancé Cooper’s hometown on the shores of a beautiful lake. His family have welcomed me with open arms. We’re planning the summer wedding I’ve always dreamed of.


But the week after I arrive, one of Cooper’s classmates corners me at the store. She says that Cooper’s not fooling anybody. Everyone in town remembers what happened to Celia Gray…


Celia was Cooper’s high school sweetheart, who died in a tragic accident the year they graduated. But some people think it was no accident. That my kind, loving husband is a killer.


I don’t believe it. But the only way to be sure is to find out what happened to the woman before me…


A dark, gripping suspense novel with a brilliant twist, The One Before is perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Gillian Flynn and The Girl Before.

The One Before

This is the first book I have read by Miranda Smith. I gave it four stars, probably should be three. After the introduction I thought it would be more suspenseful, like Gillian Flynn.

Enjoyed!!!!!

My Review:
Loved!!!!! This author is one of my favorites and this book proved why. This book had it all. Secrets, murder, cheating, lying, oh my!!!!! Each chapter kept me guessing and left me wanting more. I didn’t know what or who to believe. I was shocked and truly speechless up until the end. All I kept thinking was that Whisper Falls was a great name for a town like this. Everyone had their secrets that they wanted to keep to themselves and not be whispered to everyone else in this town. I will definitely be reading more of this authors books.

In conclusion, the plot, the characters and all the twists in this book made this book an enjoyable read. I would definitely recommend it and happily give it 5 Hearts❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
