Wedding Bells Brew Murder (Sara and Sean Cozy Mystery Series Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Carolyn Arnold (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.8 out of 5 stars 45 ratings
With all the guests at Sara and Sean’s wedding suspected of murder, her walk down the aisle will need to wait...

Everything is going perfectly on the big day until Sara opens the door of her bridal suite. Darlene Day, who made the wedding cake, falls into the room, a serving knife plunged into her back.

As the organists start to play “Here Comes the Bride,” Sara calls a pause to the proceedings. There’s a murder to solve, and the motive may be in the icing.

Darlene wasn’t the most loved person in the small town of Cotton Spring Falls, but rumor has it that she refused the offer of a big franchise to buy her bakery. Did they go so far as murder to put her out of business?

But when it’s discovered their wedding cake was poisoned, Sara and Sean could have been the intended victims all along. Did Darlene stumble upon the killer’s conspiracy and they silenced her before she could reveal their secret? Is it someone on the invitation list or the mysterious wedding crasher?

As long as the coffee is hot, and Sara has Sean and her beagle, Magnum, at her side, she isn’t going down in a heap of tulle and lace.

Wedding Bells Brew Murder is a closed-room mystery in the fashion of the great Agatha Christie that fans of Emma Davies, Verity Bright, and Helena Dixon will enjoy reading.

    Sara and Sean are the kind of people everybody wants to know. The mystery is great because there are so many possibilities as to who-done-it. Thank you! And considering their new careers, they can get involved in mysteries any place. So much better than multiple deaths in one small town. Please keep their story going.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Who stabbed their wedding cake designer just before the walk down the aisle?
    Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2023
    Fast paced with suspect upon suspect. Lots of suspects. Some four hundred. All in a closed room, so to speak. Not quite a locked room, but security was on every door and invitations were required to be allowed inside. Inside for what, you ask? Apparently the wedding of the year, at least as far as Cotton Spring Falls is concerned.

    Sara and Sean are moments away from walking down the aisle when the woman who baked their wedding cake appears at the door where Sara and her bridesmaids are preparing. And, yikes, it isn't for a cake emergency. Cake maker Darlene has a knife in her back and dies after uttering just one word, "icing". Needless to say, that's the end of the wedding and the beginning of investigating.

    This was a new series to me and although I quickly grasped the basics, I did feel I would have benefited from reading previous books. Sara's relationship with the detective she herself calls to the scene, Ryan, for instance. I didn't fully warm up to Sara, however, feeling more annoyed with her than empathy. For a former police officer, she flaunts rules she'd have had a fit about had they happened to her during a case. She and Sean worked together prior to falling in love and retiring, not to mention Sean, whoa, inheriting a billion dollars. Both jump at the chance to sleuth.

    So, who killed Darlene? What does a feather, man with a limp, and black, laced shoes have to do with anything? What pretty obvious clue do the police seem to ignore? Why did Trinity and Darlene argue just prior to Darlene's death? Greed? Ambition? How did someone get past security? What does the pushy reporter know? Does she have explosive news? Who....oh, enough teasers. Read the book.

    I should note that the viewpoint jumps back and forth a few times between Sara and Sean, too, allowing us to be privy to their individual findings and feelings. Actually, we even get to spend some time seeing through the eyes of Jimmy, a friend and still with the police. He seems to be a good guy, however, with doggie treats perpetually available in a pocket for Magnum, Sara's Beagle.

    Overall, I enjoyed the mystery despite feeling a bit lost about relationships at times. Thanks #NetGalley and #Hibbert&StilesPublishingInc for introducing me to Sara and Sean and life in Cotton Spring Falls. I'll definitely be looking for their next adventure and, time permitting, catching up on that background.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Finally married…. Or not
    Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2023
    Full disclosure - I was provided an advanced reader’s copy of this book by the author or their representative but have voluntarily provided a review. All opinions are my own.

    For Sara Cain and Sean McKinley their wedding day was to be the end of a long wait. Having denied their feelings up until just recently for professional reasons, the pair have both resigned from the police force and are ready to live a life of happiness chasing their dreams with their beagle Magnum. This day should be perfect, but when Darlene Day stumbles into the bridal suite minutes before the ceremony with a knife in her back, Sara’s world comes to a halt. A murder at her wedding is just about the last thing she had expected, but with Day’s final word being “icing” the intrigue rises. Calling in an old friend from the local police force to investigate, Sarah hopes this will open the door for her to join the investigation. But with both her and Sean mere civilians, their assistance is neither wanted nor welcomed. However, not ones who are easily deterred, the pair launch their own down low investigation. Even under the threat of arrest, Sara will not be deterred, but is the culprit a culinary rival of the deceased or is this a revenge attempt from someone from their past.? Dodging the bad guys and the good guys both, the pair have their work cut out for them to apprehend the culprit before any other lives are lost.

    Sara and Sean are back in this second cozy mystery from author Carolyn Arnold. Finally, having made it through hardships and loss during Bowled Over Americano, the couple are finally ready to tie the knot in a meticulously planned ceremony surrounded by all their friends and family. But when the cake maker comes up murdered, their big day turns into a crime scene, and they try to unravel the clues to catch a killer. To make matters worse, the lead detective on the case seems to have a long-standing personal grudge against the pair due to a seemingly unrequited crush. Even this does not deter the almost-newlyweds and Sara in particular as she resolves to investigate the murder alongside the police whether they condone her actions or not. With the crime scene and suspects basically confined to the wedding venue, Arnold has crafted a “closed room” murder mystery that is not as easy to unravel as the reader may think. After following the duo in Bowled Over Americano and now with the events unfolding as it has in Wedding Bells Brew Murder, it is easy to imagine this couple establishing their own private detective agency going forward to investigate murder and other situations in a way that the policy force can’t.
    If you are a fan of cozy mystery or police procedurals and love stories that jump off the page with their cast of easily relatable characters and situations, Wedding Bells Brew Murder will delight. And if you are new to this series, check out Bowled Over Americano, the first book for Sara and Sean’s origin story.
