Mystery Cozy | Romance Suspense

From USA Today bestselling author Anne Marie Stoddard comes another fabulously fashionable mystery in paradise...

Kaley Kalua is ecstatic when her best friend announces that she's getting married and bringing the pre-wedding celebration to Aloha Lagoon! As the maid of honor, Kaley can't wait to see her bride-to-be bestie, Emma—that is, until Emma shows up on the island with a few unwelcome faces in her wedding party, including Kaley's cheating ex-husband, Bryan, one of his former mistresses, and his new girlfriend! To make matters worse, Kaley's current relationship with the resort's hot lifeguard is on the rocks, and her brand new handbag goes missing after a wild night celebrating Emma's bachelorette party.

But things go from bad to downright deadly when Bryan's girlfriend is found the next day, dead and buried in a shallow grave on the resort beach—along with Kaley's missing bag! The police seem convinced that Kaley is involved in the woman's untimely death. In order to prove her innocence and save Emma's wedding weekend, Kaley must do a little investigating of her own. Did her arrogant ex-husband kill his own girlfriend? Or did the jealous other woman commit the crime? The deeper Kaley digs in her pursuit of the truth, the more secrets and lies she uncovers. It soon becomes clear that someone doesn't want Kaley to air their dirty laundry. If she isn't careful, she may not live to see her friend walk down the aisle.
