    A good read. Okay the characters are still a bit sketchy but you are starting to get a clearer picture of them. From the ruggedly handsome former surfer, who now runs a successful catering company, to the man shy, former free spirit heroine. The plot is simple - a murder! The murder of the groom to be exact.
    With her uncle's venue business at stake, her heart in jeopardy and a killer running loose, can she put all the clues together and find out who the killer is and why?

    I think I read this book out of sequence. I do like Kate and Lachlan. I already know that Selena is murderer. I do enjoy your stories. Glad I found you.
