Wedding Bell Blues

Jim Nash has no plans to attend the wedding of former best friend Warren to Allie Sands, a girlfriend from his past. All that goes out the window when his current partner, Maddie Stone, sees the emails and convinces him otherwise. With the decision made for both of them, Jim and Maddie are waylaid in a small town on the way to the wedding for reasons unknown. Faithful dog Friday is dispatched to rescue the pair.

On arrival at the marina, Jim is determined to discover what’s going on when the Feds make it plain they’re playing for keeps. Convinced that the Feds are up to no good, he takes matters into his own hands with the help of three dogs, three women, and the two men who refuse to see the writing on the wall.

Dogs, kids, and ice cream all play a part in this Jim Nash short story.
