Man Bags and Malice (A Haley Randolph Mystery‪)‬

Event planner to the stars Haley Randolph reluctantly accepts the assignment of staging a wedding reception—for a reality TV show! But when the show turns out to be Brides on a Budget, Haley is horrified to learn she must obey the demands of the bridal party—no matter how tacky, convoluted, and horrendous.

Coordinating a reception that must include Sponge Bob Square Pants, Obi-Wan Kenobi, pink gingham, and a colony of penguins turns out to be the least of Haley’s problems. Bartender Bianca Grady is murdered and the prime suspect is Ben Oliver, a struggling journalist who is convinced Haley is trying to ruin his life.

Haley sees it differently—she was just trying to help out the guy with some insider info—but it looks as if this time Ben’s accusation might be true. If Haley can’t find Bianca’s killer, Ben could have a walk down the aisle that leads straight into a jail cell.

For better or for worse, Haley must salvage the hideous reception and stop a murderer before “until death do us part” becomes more than a wedding vow!
