Genre: Inspirational/Mystery

 

Annie Peterson’s first daughter’s wedding is quickly approaching…but the groom is missing in action! Two weeks before the wedding finds Brandi in tears, a strange text message on Brandi’s phone, and perhaps no wedding to attend.

 

Annie isn’t quite sure how to handle things. So, optimistically, she continues planning the wedding and trying to get the final pieces lined up. But Brandi is rendered inconsolable when Scott’s car is found—and he isn’t. The police don’t help much when they form a search party to look for his body in the nearby woods.

 

Annie tries to pinpoint the suspects—and they abound—for the disappearance of her future son-in-law. Is it a case of a nervous groom?  Or is more sinister forces at work?

 

Gone With the Groom is the sequel to The Wedding Caper, but it easily stands alone. Annie was just as loveable, a forty-some-odd heroine out to give her daughter the wedding of her dreams—if only they can find the groom.

 

The inspirational message is expertly woven in, and the characters interact naturally with each other. Set in Pennsylvania, there is also a healthy dose of winter weather for the readers to enjoy—and the characters to endure. Pick up your copy today. A delicious mystery to enjoy at Valentines Day, or anytime. $12.95. 300 pages.
