It was Stella Gullaksen’s final break before starting her freshman year at college. Joining her best friend, Jill, and Jill's family aboard the STARKISSED, Stella wakes to a violent storm that capsizes the boat over a hundred miles off the New Jersey shore.

As the waves haul her under Stella knows that she is going to die. Instead, an unusual current drags her deep into the underwater canyons of the Atlantic Ocean. Powerless against the raging waters, she is suddenly sucked into a ventilated cave. One by one, Jill and her family also emerge in the sunken cavern.

With only a faulty diving flashlight to keep oblivion at bay Stella and her best friend's brother, Colin, search the cave in hope of finding a way back to the surface. What they discover, however, is that they are not alone. There are other survivors in this subterranean grotto–survivors spanning decades of maritime disasters.

Will this discovery prove salvation, or have they all been condemned to the same fate? A grim finale at the bottom of the sea?On an alliance forged by friendship and attraction, Stella and Colin battle to escape the danger that lies beneath. FIVE BOUNDLESS STARS

This isn’t an original plot, but Miller has made it hers! With so many unanswered questions and twist throughout this story, I couldn’t put it down. The many characters are developed throughout the story in a way that allows the story to unfold with new information on every page.

In addition to being a page-turner, Beneath adds so many unexpected aspects there are surprises everywhere. It’s had to elaborate without spoilers. Trust me when I say Beneath is a MUST READ for lovers of all genres! I can’t wait to start on the next book, and you will feel the same! I highly recommend this 5-star book!
