Romance Chick-Lit | Mystery Amateur Sleuth

Maddie Springer is marrying the man of her dreams after a romantic Paris proposal. But although she and Jack want to keep the wedding intimate, Maddie's mother has different ideas. Very, very different. So Maddie hires a top wedding planner in the hopes that she can avoid clashing with her mother. Unfortunately, when Jack and Maddie arrive to meet with the wedding planner, she's dead. Unable to keep her shoe- designing nose out of a homicide investigation -- a situation that frustrates her fiancé to no end! -- Maddie is determined to find out who killed off her best chance at a peaceful wedding. But when Jack objects strenuously to her involvement, Maddie strikes a deal with him that may lead to walking down the aisle in an ugly pair of shoes. That could be the biggest tragedy of all. Another fun adventure in the life of shoe designer Maddie Springer, and the last in this mystery series. MAYHEM IN HIGH HEELS is a light book you can read in one sitting. Murder is definitely sidelined by the characters in this delightful series. Have fun!

SUMMARY

Maddie is finally walking down the aisle with the man of her dreams and she has the top wedding planner to pull it all off. Well, until her wedding planner is left murdered face down in butter cream icing. Dreams of the perfect wedding quickly melt away as Maddie's hubby-to-be is assigned as the detective in charge of the case. Unable to turn down the opportunity to save her wedding and solve the murder mystery, Maddie recruits her fellow trouble-magnet friends to find the cold-blooded killer before her wedding day. Is it the hot young rock star boyfriend, the powerful ex, a secret lover form the past, the assistant, or a billionaire heiress? As the big day grow closer, Maddie has a hard time keeping track of dress fittings and rehearsal dinners as secrets are uncovered, old flings return, and bets are made. Will she be able to find the killer before her strut down the aisle?

I haven't read your books yet but I'll give this one a try! How many in the series?

Sounds like fun and that is missing all too
often. Will have to catch up on the earlier
books in the series.
