Who will catch a lifetime of love?
Winning the annual wedding bouquet design competition may be the closest Kady Lawrence gets to the altar. She has to come in first or risk losing the shop that’s been in her family for generations. Her main competition is Jasmine Matthews. But it’s Jasmine’s son who’s caught Kady’s attention.
Kady has no inkling Dylan’s a DEA agent on a case in Cypress Pointe, and Dylan wants to keep it that way...until Kady’s targeted. Determined to keep her safe, Dylan risks a lot more than blowing his cover...he risks losing Kady forever.
Suddenly, Kady shivered; he stepped toward her.
He liked being here with Kady, standing in the outdoors, far away from the burden of his memories, the strangling ties of his job. Standing before this beautiful vista of sand and surf, beside an equally beautiful and fascinating woman, almost felt surreal.
Kady rubbed her hands up and down her bare arms.
“Are you cold?”
“Yes. I should have grabbed my wrap before we came outside.”
Dylan shrugged out of his jacket and placed it over her shoulders. She took the lapels in her hands and drew the coat around her.
“Better?”
She met his gaze. “Much.”
They continued to stare at each other. Dylan was so drawn to this woman, he should be fighting it. It wasn’t safe for either of them, and yet...he slid his arm around her waist. When she didn’t move away, he pulled her closer.
Who doesn’t love flowers? Or weddings? How about a mystery thrown in for good measure?
The Bridal Bouquet, the fourth installment in The Business of Weddings series, has all of the above, along with two strong-willed characters out to achieve their goals. Problem is, their goals don’t include love so, of course, they can’t help falling for each other.
Kady Lawrence has a lot to prove if she wants to take over the family floral shop. Attending the annual floral convention and winning the wedding bouquet competition is all part of her plan, that is until DEA special agent Dylan Matthews walks into her life.
Dylan has an old score to settle and the criminal in question is hiding out near Cypress Pointe. How to catch him? Pose undercover at the floral convention to gather information about the town and its people. Sounds easy enough. But bad guys have a way of changing the rules. Soon Dylan finds himself protecting Kady, and as danger escalates, love blossoms.
Welcome back to Cypress Pointe. For a small town, there always seems to be something exciting going on! You’ll catch up with characters from my previous books and find out if any wedding bells will chime in the future. After all, this is the business of weddings.
