My review:
Brynn is getting ready to marry the man of her dreams, Nathan. She’s planning the wedding on her own practically while he is at a high profile murder trial.
We hear from ‘the woman’ that clearly is trying to sabotage the wedding. But why and who is this mystery woman? There are quite a few possibilities.
Alright so I liked the few twists we got, one was a real nice zinger, but Brynn going back and forth trying to figure out who was doing the sabotaging was a bit annoying. The things that were being done were things that you’d expect in order to get the bride in a frenzy.
Overall, it was fine, a bit slow moving, but I enjoyed the writing well enough that I’m interested in seeing where the next book takes us.
Side note ~ no matter where the author is based, or their nationality, I feel like if the book is based in the USA then proper terms should be used and vice versa. For instance we don’t really call people cows over here, or say chemist.
Narration notes:
She sounded a little young, but did a nice job differentiating other characters’ voices. I could have gone for a little more emotion at times.
Series notes:
The story somewhat continues, so it would be best to read this one before The Missing Bridesmaid.

Book blurb:
I’ve dreamed of this day forever. But will it be my last?
My stomach flutters with happiness as I try on my wedding dress. In just a few weeks I’m going to marry Nathan, the love of my life, and everything will be perfect.
We are estranged from Nathan’s mother, so I’m shocked when Debbie arrives, suitcase in hand. She says she’s moving in to help with the wedding preparations. But what is she hiding behind her pleasant smile? Is it possible she knows my darkest secret?
As the wedding draws closer, I can’t shake the feeling that I’m in danger. Beautiful cake toppers are delivered to my doorstep, but the bride’s face is smashed in. My veil goes missing, taken from my bedroom overnight. Has someone been inside my room, watching me while I sleep?
I won’t let anyone ruin my perfect day. And yet as I’m walking down the aisle, I find myself scanning my guests’ faces, searching for a woman with hatred in her gaze.
But when I look up, it’s Nathan’s eyes that are cold and strange. Has the man I love realised he knows nothing about me?
Then the terrible truth hits me. I was wrong about everything.
And I think I’m going to pay with my life…
An utterly heart-pounding and nail-biting new novel from bestseller L.G. Davis. This twisty, gasp-out-loud thriller is perfect for fans of Gone Girl, Teresa Driscoll and Freida McFadden.
