From the blurb:
"So far Meg Langslow's summer is not going swimmingly. Down in her small Virginia hometown, she's maid of honor at the nuptials of three loved ones--each of whom has dumped the planning in her capable hands. One bride is set on including a Native American herbal purification ceremony, while another wants live peacocks on the lawn. Only help from the town's drop-dead gorgeous hunk, disappointly rumored to be gay, keep Meg afloat in a sea of dotty relatives and outrageous neighbors."

"And, in a whirl of summer parties and picnics, Southern hospitality is strained to the limit by an offensive newcomer who hints a skeletons in the guests closets. But it seems this lady has offended one to many when she's found dead in suspicious circumstances, followed by a string of accidents--some fatal. Soon, level-headed Meg's to do list extends from flower arrangements and bridal registries to catching a killer--before the next catered event is her own funeral."
