Abby is a bridesmaid as well as providing the flowers for her cousin’s wedding. It’s complicated, since the groom is the brother of Abby’s ex-fiancé. It gets even more complicated when one of the groomsmen turns up dead and another is held for his murder. The bride is upset that the wedding may be cancelled and Abby is worried that she will be stuck with loads of flowers and no payment for them. Abby wants to solve the murder, but she really gets in over her head in this one! It’s an exciting mystery, with engaging characters in an intricate plot. ( )

A cozy mystery with the protagonist a flower shop owner. Her cousin's groomsman has been murdered and if Abby the protagonist wants to pay for her bridesmaid dress and the flowers she has ordered for the wedding, she will have to solve the murder or the wedding is off.A cozy mystery that can be read by any member of the family and of any age. No bad language, no sex, just a few clues to follow. ( )

I liked this book more than the first - but still find the constant admonition from all the other characters to "stop meddling" really annoying. Makes me feel like I'm cheering on the local busybody (who is usually the victim of cozies, not the protagonist). Still, I did enjoy this one more and I'm ready to start the third after a short break. ( )

A more than promising beginning leading to a tempered middle and a nefarious end. That's how I sum up the essence of this book. Something undefinable took me out of the story. I could see how the author began this book. She had the idea of the plot lacing elements with the subplot. The actual execution lacked punch (no pun) and it was obvious that the author ran out of steam midway. There was no concealed villain working in the shadows, plotting intricately. The murder revolves round a cruel but big fat dumb slave ring cartel. This book also had the distinction of being the first murder mystery where the killer left prints on the weapon. And still the police and the FBI couldn't do anything. I needn't say more. But I will. This book is stupid. ( )

I enjoyed the book for the most part, but I was bothered a bit by the TSTL actions of the heroine, especially near the end of the book.

I understand curiosity, I understand wanting to help someone you think is in trouble. I don't understand taking off by yourself to a place you know is extremely dangerous.

I'm enjoying the bits of flower lore, the building relationship between Abby and Marco. I find the cousin annoying but mostly a minor annoyance and the rest of Abby's family is hysterical.

I'll keep reading the series, for the most part it is a lot of fun. ( )

As always, a big thanks to my home support team - my husband, Jim; children Jason, Julie and Tasha; and my away team, Lacinda, Damian, Tamara, Wolfgang, and of course, baby Niobe. I thank you all deeply for your understanding and encouragement.
To my mother, for your patience and support, and for not being like Abby's mom.
To my late father, a cop with a sharp sense of humor and an Irish temper, for inspiring the character of Abby's father.
To all the dedicated "Men in Blue" who have the integrity and backbone to stand up for what is right.
And to Karen and Julie at Expressions for their valuable assistance.
