Every bride-to-be living in Kansas City, Missouri knows
the name of Lucien Savard. He is the mastermind behind the
sophisticated design boutique of Savard Creations. Built
from the ground up, Lucien's empire is highly successful
and his wedding gowns are desired by many. His one major
character flaw is that he tends to be moody and irrational
at times, which makes working for him quite the adventure.
Luckily for him, he is related to most of his employees.
From siblings to his very own offspring, Lucien hires them
all. Why not keep his good fortune all in the family?
Mia Savard is a talented designer yearning to create her
own trousseau line for the family business. Chosen to
design the wedding gown for the governor's daughter was a
huge honor, but when Mia's design is stolen, she must put
her trousseau dreams aside if she wants to help her family
catch the thief. As accusations start to fly, Mia finds
herself face to face with a hot private investigator that
just happens to think that she is his number one suspect.
From mishap to mayhem, Mia is definitely in way over her
head. If only she could trap the thief and hook this
hunk!
Joe Kerr's life has not been easy. Having lost his fiancé
at a young age and left to raise her daughter, Joe doubts
he ever will find true love again. Despite his family's
stellar history in law enforcement, Joe's dislike for
firearms makes him leave the force and start his own
detective agency. His latest case at Savard Creations has
come with plenty of interesting characters including a
sexy designer named Mia. What does this girl have hiding
up her sleeve? Joe definitely wants to find out. Perhaps
his life is heading in a new direction after all!
Lynn Michaels' fourth novel is a delightful mixture of
suspense and humor. The quirky characters keep the plot
moving along and the laugh out loud scenes between Lucien
and his family make the reader want for more. Despite its
length, MARRIAGE BY DESIGN is worth the read. Once again,
Michaels designs the perfect romantic comedy for her
devoted fans.
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.
