Wedding bells are chiming for Nikki Sands and her beloved
Derek Malveaux, and as with any wedding, time is growing
short and there is much to do. In addition to helping Derek
run their Malveaux Estate winery in Napa, California, Nikki
must deal with a bevy of Derek's old college buddies and
their wives, wedding guests who have shown up early
to "help" the couple celebrate their big day. Frankly,
Nikki could do with a little less "help."
From the start things seem to be going wrong -- a chewing
gum accident causes Nikki to have her glorious long hair
shorn and colored platinum-blonde; a couple of Derek's
friends' wives seem intent on renewing old crushes; and if
that wasn't bad enough, Derek's hateful stepmother has
shown up and threatens to ruin everything.
But Nikki really knows the wedding wasn't going well when
her best friend and "man of honor," Simon, is shot as he
escorts Nikki down the aisle. And when it become clear
that Nikki was the intended target of the unknown shooter,
a very hot-tempered Nikki sets out to find out who is
trying to prevent her from marrying Derek.
Hell hath no fury like a woman whose wedding is messed with!
In Michelle Scott's sixth book in her Wine Lover's
Mystery
series, A TOAST TO MURDER, she again brings her readers
into the fascinating lives of the Malveaux family and the
beautiful countryside where they run their winery. A
delightful mystery, A TOAST TO MURDER is also filled with
delicious recipes and in-depth information on some great
sounding wines. A great summer read to be paired with a
yummy glass of vino!
The
big day is swiftly approaching for Nikki Sands-Manager of
the Malveaux Estates in Napa Valley-and her fiancé Derek
Malveaux, who owns the winery. But when they start receiving
cryptic messages questioning their belief in fate, things
quickly turn fatal.
