“Christie Craig is my newest auto buy - her books are great!

Wedding planner Tabitha's brides are turning up dead....Katie, who plans to marry Joe in 2 weeks, is using Tabitha as her planner. When she shows up at Tabitha's, Katie finds Tabitha dead. No wonder, since she accidentally flushed her engagement ring earlier that day, her day has gone from bad to worse.
Carl Hades is a PI working the dead bride case, when he and Katie are locked up in Tabitha's house. Katie has been having second thoughts about marrying Joe, and good old Carl rocks her world. Lots to learn about someone, when you can't escape and is't obvious someone is hot on her trail!
Enter her pal Les, who falls for Joe, along with a few wacky family members, not to mention a pair of sissy dogs (who pretty much steal the show). The bride investigation, along with the family relationships, turn this story in to a laugh out loud romp.
There are some sad moments, dealing with family loss. However, Christie Craig turns these in to believeable moments, that we can all relate to. Adorable cast of characters, with a perfect mix of suspense, laughter, and romance.

“I really enjoyed this book. It was witty and fun. I laughed more than once while I was reading it. The "porn" at the end is hilarious! I also liked how Katie deemed situations f-word worthy--reminds me of me. :)

Weddings Can Be Murders is a genuine contemporary romance story. This is a story of Katie Ray, a woman due to be married to a man she thinks she loves. Her position in this matter changes daily and when she accidentally flushes her wedding ring, she is forced to step back and pay serious consideration to her choices.
While she's busy with wedding arrangements, Katie stumbles onto the path of a killer. Carl Hades, a private investigator is on the trail of the killer who is responsible for the deaths of four brides-to-be.
During the course of the investigation, Katie and Carl discover an attraction towards each other. However, between Katie's imminent wedding and Carl's aversion to marriage, both are reluctant to act on their growing feelings.
In addition to the story of Katie and Carl, there's a secondary story featuring Katie's best friend. Both stories are easy to follow. The writing moves fast, and does not complicate the story. There are some very funny moments and also sad moments dealing with family loss.
Christine Craig is a talented writer. In this story, she develops interesting and likable characters into a story that has enough twist and turns to keep you at the edge of your seat. I look forward to reading more of her books.
