Love-and murder-are in the air in the third installment of the Starlit Bookshop mysteries from Agatha Award-winning author Cynthia Kuhn.
Wedding bells are ringing in the cozy mountain town of Silvercrest, Colorado. Bookseller and literary event planner Emma Starrs is helping her newly engaged sister Lucy design the day of her dreams. They hope to take inspiration from two local celebrity weddings held during Valentine's week, until Winnie Claxton, wedding planner extraordinaire, is found dead at the reception of the first ceremony, sending the second into peril.
The bride is a friend of Lucy's, and at her insistence, Emma agrees to take over the Romeo and Juliet-themed affair. Yet Hannah Fallon and Clay Hartson's imminent nuptials are not Emma's only problem. During the week of the celebration, one problem after another threatens to ruin the activities-and even puts the lives of the bridal party at stake.
It soon becomes clear that someone is trying to prevent Hannah and Clay from tying the knot. Searching for answers while dealing with sabotage and keeping events on track is quite a challenge, but Emma vows to solve the case before this love affair ends in tragedy.
