He has the ring. He has the girl. But does he have the truth?
For months, Will has been planning the perfect proposal—elegant, heartfelt, unforgettable. On the surface, everything is in place. But beneath the charm and practiced smiles lies a man haunted by silence. A past he’s never confessed. A wound that refuses to heal. And a question that grows louder with each passing day: What if love isn’t enough to cover a lie? Rachel has waited patiently, trusting the man she loves even when his eyes drift, even when his laughter feels rehearsed. But as secrets begin to surface and old connections resurface, her certainty begins to crack. What is Will hiding? And what might it cost her to find out? As the proposal date nears, so does the unraveling. One truth. One choice. One moment of honesty could change everything—or end everything they’ve built. Before I Propose is a gripping emotional drama that peels back the layers of a man on the edge of commitment—and the woman who must decide if love is still love when it’s wrapped in shadows.
Because sometimes, the most dangerous question is the one you’re afraid to answer.
