Aspen Meadow caterer Goldy Schulz has her hands full for the summer catering to every unreasonable whim of bridezilla Billie Attenborough. She understands why Billie's mother is willing to pay for every change and addition to the catering contract; she wants Billie off her hands, forever to be the responsibility of the groom, Dr. Craig Miller. Or maybe it's just to have more time to devote to Goldy's godfather, Jack. And Jack doesn't seem averse to the attentions of Billie's mother, though he's not particularly fond of the daughter. But when Jack's good friend, retired Doc Finn, is murdered on his way to a wedding catered by Goldy, Jack isn't interested in anything but discovering the secret that cost his friend his life.

Goldy is too busy keeping up with all of Billie's changes to follow Jack's investigation until the scene of the wedding and the investigation focus turn out to be the local spa, headed by Goldy's long-time nemesis Victor Lane. There's no doubt something fishy is going on, and Goldy is going to find out what after Jack falls victim to the killer. Quicker than the bride can say, "I do," Goldy finds herself the target by a madman determined to get away with murder.
