About Syrup to No Good

"With romance, recipes, and a murderer on the loose, this book will delight fans of Joanne Fluke, Jenn McKinlay, or Laura Childs." —Booklist

Her best friend Heather's wedding is coming up, and Leila will do anything to make sure it lives up to all her sweetest dreams.

Even with Leila's own romantic past stirring up trouble, everything is going to plan until the bridal shower ends up with a body count.

Heather's rich and backstabbing aunt had a whole orchard of enemies, so Leila will have her work cut out for her. Can she tap the killer before Heather's dream wedding becomes a nightmare?

Includes delicious Middle Eastern recipes!
