Slay It With Flowers

“MOVE OVER STEPHANIE PLUM. ABBY KNIGHT HAS COME
TO TOWN.”
—Denise Swanson, author of Murder of a Pink
ElephantMe, Abby Knight, an entrepreneur! Who would have guessed
when I flunked out of law school a year ago that I’d be
standing here today in front of Bloomers, my very own
flower shop. Even though I may be penniless, I am soundly
devoted to my new profession—whether it means arranging a
bouquet of flowers—or unearthing the seeds of murder… NEAR MRS.Abby’s latest gig is the perfect marriage of her
talents. Not only does her bride-to-be cousin Jillian want
Abby to be a bridesmaid, she also wants her to sign on as
floral designer—and sleuth… Jillian has agreed to marry a different man nearly once
a year, and has yet to make it to the altar. But this time,
it’s cold dead feet that may stop the wedding.
Before the couple says, “I do,” one of the groomsmen
disappears—and soon, another member of the wedding party is
found dead. Luckily for Abby, she has plenty of help—
including her brassy been-there-done-that assistant (who’s
also a mother of quadruplets), a hunky bar owner with a
penchant for love and justice, and her own carrot-topped
family. Together, they aim to unveil the truth…and make
sure the bride still gets her day to shine.
