Romance Contemporary

There's only so much taffeta and toile a girl can take.

Passionate, talented, and noticeably stunning, Mia Savard is the top designer at her father's thriving bridal design company. But her life has hit a bit of a snag. Thirty, recently dumped and suddenly single, Mia has grown weary of white lace and craves couture. But when Mia's most spectacular creation is leaked to the competition, the silk hits the fan. Someone inside Savard Creations is trading with the enemy. In the world of fashion, that means war.

Enter private investigator Joe Kerr, the exceedingly handsome ex-cop hired to nab the clever mole. Stalking dangerous territory, where jittery brides, hysterical mothers, and deadline-challenged designers clash in clouds of gossamer and gossip, Joe is torn between suspecting Mia and seducing her. Amid the treachery, hijinks, and flirtations galore, it seems, for Mia, romance just might be tailor-made.
