Former Manhattan fashion buyer Kelly Quinn is turning her grandmother’s outdated consignment shop into her quaint hometown’s hot spot for upscale style—until her second-hand couture makes the scene of an ice-cold crime . . .With her bottom line looking a little threadbare, Kelly is going all out to promote the Lucky Cove Resale Boutique. She’s counting on Black Friday to recover her start-up expenses—including a website and an advertising blitz. But the publicity is overkill when two warring divas, and one sparkly evening dress, thrust Kelly and her fledgling business into a scandal she can’t afford.The gorgeous garment came to Kelly from the walk-in closets of Wendy Johnson, one of reality TV’s Long Island Ladies. When Wendy’s former co-star, Diana Delacourte, graces a Christmas gala in the dress that was once her rival’s, a very public catfight ensues. But is Wendy to blame when sequin-clad Diana turns up dead? Dodging the show’s ever-present cameras—and a detective’s stern warnings—Kelly hunts for a killer before the powerful celebrity-suspect makes good on her threats and rips her to shreds . . .
REVIEW
*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
Fashion, mystery, and friends what more could a reader want?? We catch back up with Kelly in this second installment to this series. She finally had a clothing donation that included some really high end fashion making her excited for the possibility of more. Attending a Christmas Gala she hopes to bring in more business when suddenly a cat fight starts up between the previous owner of a dress and the new buyer. Both are divas so this gets good fast. Trying to save some bad publicity Kelly tries to talk to the buyer the next day only t o find her dead instead. She tries to stay out of it but curiosity has other plans. Makes for a great mystery full of good clothes and multi-layered characters. Makes a great read for fans of cozies and fashion. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
