There’s something irresistible about a wedding in a small town—lace-trimmed details, sun-drenched ceremonies, and the slow buzz of gossip floating just under the surface. But what happens when the bride goes missing before the cake is even sliced? That’s the question at the heart of my newest cozy mystery, where nothing is quite as sweet as it seems and every borrowed item carries more weight than it should.

In this second installment of the Cozy Cove Mysteries, librarian Margot Bellamy returns to find herself tangled in the most delicate of disappearances. What starts as a suspected case of cold feet soon turns into something deeper, stranger, and far more dangerous than anyone in town wants to admit. There’s a missing veil, a borrowed book no one remembers checking out, and a ransom that arrives days too late.

This story leans into everything I love about the genre: a warm town full of oddball charm, a quiet sleuth who notices more than she lets on, and a puzzle built from rumors, half-truths, and forgotten corners. It’s got coastal charm, cake tastings, high-stakes secrets—and yes, a runaway bride who might not have been running at all.

If you like mysteries with wit, heart, and a bit of misdirection tucked into every chapter, I hope you’ll step into the tangled tale of "Something Borrowed, Something Wrong."
