In this second Decoupage Mystery book Brenna once again finds herself in the middle of a murder.

When Bride-to be Tara doesn't show up to OK her wedding favors, Brenna decides to go to her home and get her. She knows that the bachelorette party was the night before and figures Tara overslept. What Brenna finds however is a nightmare. Tara is fast asleep in bed, alongside Clue, her fiance Jake's best friend. Even worse, Clue is dead and Tara is holding the murder weapon.

Tara can't remember what happened the night before, but Brenna knows in her heart that she couldn't have done this awful thing. So when Tara is arrested for the murder, Brenna sets out to find out who really did it.

There are a lot of suspects, and as in the first book, I was completely surprised by who the murderer turned out to be. This book kept me interested until the last word.

I love Lucy Lawrence's books. Of course, as with any cozy, you have to read them "with a grain of salt". But that is the beauty of a cozy. They are not supposed to be "real life"...just easy reading, with the knowledge that it is not supposed to be "real".
