When I started out reading this novel, I was pleasantly surprised at how fast I became addicted to the story. Daphne is a wedding celebrant who has come to town to marry a couple whose families have bad blood between them. But, that shouldn’t stop the celebration of the happy couple right? Well, you would be wrong. A murder takes place, and Daphne feels it is up to her to find out who done it! Honestly, I LOVED the main character Daphne and her husband John. I love that the characters are later on in life and not some teenage detective and her boyfriend trying to solve a mystery. I love the way both of the characters look out for one another and show how deeply they care. I also love that Daphne is not described as some hot model type with blond hair, she’s got gray hairs and some curves which makes it more realistic for readers. If you are into mystery murders, small-town vibes, and an adorable couple-this is your book. I will definitely be picking up the next installment of this series!

What a fun read! Once you start reading you can't stop.
Daph and John are a cute, in-sync couple, travelling around Victoria in their caravan, Bluebell, so Daph can work as a celebrant.
Enter the wedding of all weddings. A bride marrying a third time; the grooms all related; some dark family secrets between the two families and then a dead groom.
Wonderful word-building and scene setting. Loved the story, Loved the characters. Didn't see the plot twist coming in the end.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this book.
