What a breath of fresh air for the cozy mystery genre!
It was such a pleasure getting to know Presley Parker, Event Planner and owner of Killer Parties, in San Fransisco.
When the mayor hires Presley to host a suprise wedding for his fiance, Ikea Takeda, things go wrong when the bride to be washes up dead in the bay.
Having had numerous people attending the party, Presley turns into the number one suspect, so she uses her party planning skills to catch the murderer. Things dont always go well for Presley, and she finds herself in some sticky situations to catch the real killer.
Bottom line: I really enjoyed this book! Presley is a very cute character. Shes surrounded by an eccentric group of friends and co-workers that help her out along the way. Its fun how Presley pre-thinks her current situations by remembering scenes from old movies. Even though I guessed the killer extremely early on, (hey im getting pretty good at this) the plot moved quickly, and the reveal scene was action packed. I liked how the clues were sprinkled throughout the book, which helped me confirm my guess.
I am eagerly awaiting the next book in this series, and hope the author contiues to write them!
