The biggest wedding festival Maplewood has ever seen is about to bloom…But someone won't live to see the bouquet toss.

Florist Lila Jennings is up to her elbows in roses, ribbon, and runaway nerves as the town's Wedding in Blooms Festival kicks off: lace-draped tents, celebrity wedding planner Janine Frost calling the shots, and hundreds of eager brides-to-be filling Main Street.

Then the screams start. Janine collapses at the cake table, and suddenly the festival's dream date turns deadly. With the police scrambling and half the vendors harboring grudges against the sharp-tongued planner, suspicion blooms fast.

Armed with her gossip-loving best friend Lucy, steady-eyed pet shop owner Ethan, and her two furry "assistants"—mischievous cat Clementine and slobbery bulldog Tank, Lila finds herself diving headfirst into a web of secrets, jealous rivals, buried feuds, and dangerously misplaced allergens. Everyone wanted Janine knocked down a peg, but who wanted her dead?

From stolen floral deliveries and shredded vendor lists to anonymous threats and suspicious "accidents," every clue brings Lila closer to a killer hiding in plain sight… and closer to danger herself. Because when secrets start with "I do," they don't always end with happily ever after.

If you love:

• Cozy sleuths with charming pets,
• Wedding drama and small-town rivalries,
• Amateur detectives and nosy best friends

…you'll adore this warm-hearted whodunit filled with humor, heart, and just the right dash of danger.
