Book Review: Engaged In Death by Stephanie Blackmoore
Loved this book. Stephanie Blackmoore’s cozy mystery has
made me fall I’m love with this genre. Engaged in Death is the first in a new
series of cozy mysteries featuring the Sephard sisters, Mallory and Rachel.
After Mallory is betrayed by her fiancé Keith she breaks off their engagement
weeks before the wedding. After her whole implodes Mallory is grateful that her younger sister, Rachel is there to help her rebuild.
Engaged in Death is a fun tale of murder, whodunit, amateur
investigation and small town scandals that follows provides wonderful engagement.
Book two in the series is slated to be published early in 2017 and I can’t wait
to dive into series.
I got this book from NetGalley. Thanks to publishers, Kensignton for granting me access to this ARC. The book is still available on NetGalley, it be archived on June 30. book.
Engaged is Death is expected to be released on June 28, 2016.
