Miranda Nights

Briar's Reviews

Miranda Nights by Gail Ward Olmsted continues the thrilling life of Miranda Quinn in a must read sequel!

Miranda Quinn is living a fantastic life after having to deal with her legal advice tv show being cancelled two years ago. But, of course, life doesn't stay squeaky clean for long! Her best friend's son gets arrested for something he claims he didn't do and Miranda comes to help. And then things get worse... She has a stalker calling into her radio talk show with weird statements and threats, one of her family members has a medical emergency, and her life seems to be spiraling out of control. As her stalker caller gets more aggressive, you just know Miranda is going to solve this mystery with the help of her friends and family.

What a thrill ride thing book was! The danger, the thrills, the mystery behind it all was absolutely fantastic and very engaging. It's terrifying at the same time as we know that stalkers can be extremely dangerous, especially one that seems to know more about Miranda than the average Joe. There is so much potential in this plot and it really pulls you in. I did expect there to be a very explosive ending but it gently rolls out. 

I did enjoy seeing Miranda and her husband throughout the book. It was nice to see Miranda being a happy person and working with the troubles surrounding her life instead of being the core focus. At times, it does make the thriller side of this book not as prevalent (and can be super annoying if you wanted a pure thriller), but I enjoyed it. It felt more like a contemporary thriller. 

Do you need to read the first book in the series to understand this one? No. If you read the first book it will give you all the information you need to understand this book 100% but Gail does a marvelous job of giving enough information to fill the reader in. 

This book is a must read for me this summer! The thrills, tension, and chance to jump back into Miranda Quinn's world is a highly recommended book from this reviewer!

Four out of five stars.

I received this book for free form the author, Gail Ward Olmstead, in exchange for an honest review.
