Rate this book
Could a wedding guest actually be a murderer?"Another great read by Susan Gillard" ★★★★★

Heather and her friends return to Hillside, Texas for her friend's wedding.

At first, it seems perfect. It's taking place at a fancy mansion that just opened to the public, and everything is lovely. Then, Heather stumbles across a dead body!

Once she determines that it had to be either an employee or a wedding guest that is the killer, Heather uses the wedding as a cover to question suspects.

Now it's up to Heather to provide wedding donuts and justice.

Join Heather as she finds a way to catch the killer before it's time to catch the bouquet!

It is finally time for Col and Mona's wedding and everyone is praying for things to go smoothly. With Heather and the gang around, we can be assured that something will happen. Even with the text errors, I have to give this book a 4-star rating. I was so excited to be at this wedding and the venue sounded beautiful.

Wedding bells are ringing but when Heather stumbles onto a body things are going to get crazy.

Another great read by Susan Gillard and it was fun to go back to Texas to see the old gang.

The Shepherd family plus friends are back home
in Hillside, Texas for a wedding. Both Heather and
Amy are co-Maids of Honor plus two of the bride’s
cousins are bridesmaids. Lilly is the flower girl.
Ryan is a groomsman.
The wedding is the first affair being held in Hovel
since it re-opened. Everything is going along fine
until Heather notices the curator missing.
The curator is found dead in the wine cellar. Since
no one has left the wedding, the killer is still there
at the reception. The killer must be found without
disturbing the wedding. Will they be able to find
the killer before the bouquet is thrown??
A fast paced murder mystery with interesting
characters involved in an unique plot.
The donut made special for the wedding is the
Mimosa Cream Donut.
This is book # 16 in the Oceanside Cozy Mystery
series. It can be read as a stand alone.
I volunteered to read Mimosa Cream & Murder.
Thanks to the author for the opportunity. My opinion
is my own.

Heather, Ryan, Lilly, Amy and Jamie travel back to Hillside for Mona and Col’s wedding. Everything is going along as planned. During the wedding a murder has taken place. Now it is up to Heather, Amy, Ryan and the police to find the killer without the bride and groom discovering what happened.
Another entertaining and enjoyable read in this cozy series. Interesting and quirky characters.

Being back in Hillside for Mona and Col’s wedding is bittersweet, at least for Heather. Seeing her old home and her original donut shop reminded her of what she left behind when she and her husband Ryan, with their daughter Lilly moved to Key West to open her second donut shop.
She and Amy have lots planned for Mona’s last day as a single lady and everything goes smoothly.

But it was too good to last. When looking for the wedding coordinator after the wedding ceremony the next day, they finally find her, dead. So it’s time to grab Ryan and Jamie along with Detective Hoskiss and his new partner and do what they do best, solve a murder.

I really do enjoy this series. It’s light reading with creative venues for murder. The only thing that is a negative for me is
a problem with attention to details, i.e. grammar, tense, typos.

I received a free arc and am voluntarily reviewing this book.

I chose this rating only because there were so many typos, it was irritating. The story was very good 👍
