Maddie ultimately decides he should stay, he’s her father after all. But she and Benji haven't even made it through their vows when he leaps from his seat and collapses in the aisle, throwing the ceremony into disarray.

And the one most likely to kill him?


Maddie’s mother.

More EX-citement than she can stand! It's finally Maddie and Benji's wedding day. Friends and family will all be there including some they weren't expecting. No wedding for Maddie would be complete without a murder and to make matters worse, Cameron is there to “help” in the investigation and her mom is a prime suspect! This series always has a good plot with humor and suspense. Lily and Flash are all grown up, but I hope they keep appearing in the series.

Dead Without a Hitch by Kat Bellmore is a delightful cozy mystery that left me laughing, guessing, and rooting for its characters until the very last page. The story follows a quirky protagonist who's roped into an amateur investigation that quickly spirals into something far bigger and more dangerous than she anticipated. If you're a fan of cozy mysteries with humor, likable characters, and a story that keeps you engaged from start to finish, Dead Without a Hitch is a must-read.

Three things make this story different: 1 Mattie's estranged father shows up at the wedding and drops dead. 2 Mattie's mother is the prime suspect. 2 Mattie's ex-husband (her children's father) comes to the wedding. He becomes part of the Swallow investigation team and helps a lot in finding the murderer though Mattie doesn't like it. You'll never guess where the honeymoon takes place either. So much fun in this book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout.

About the author

Kat Bellemore is a small town romance and cozy mystery author. Deciding to have New Mexico as the setting for two of her series was an easy choice, considering its amazing sunsets, blue skies and tasty green chile. That, and she currently lives there with her husband and two cute kids. They hope to one day add a dog to the family, but for now, the native animals of the desert will have to do. Though, Kat wouldn't mind ridding the world of scorpions and centipedes. They're just mean.
