When her fellow bridesmaids die in a series of suspicious accidents, writer-turned-sleuth Bailey Weggins endeavors to avoid becoming another victim while finding the killer. This description may be from another edition of this product.
She writes almost as humorous as Evanovich but the last few chapters will remind you of Mary Higgins Clark! You and the main character won't know who dunnit until the end! I can't believe some of the other reviews of this book. It's great and so are the rest of the series! I can't wait to read her next one! If you like a good mystery and a good laugh, then read this book!
A Murderous Trip to Greenwich
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Freelance true crime writer, and amateur sleuth, Bailey Weggins, is trying to get some relaxation on a frigid night in New York City, when she gets a frantic call from Ashley Hanes, a woman whom she was a bridesmaid with nine-months earlier, and scarcely knows. Bailey is expecting to be hit up for a couple of tickets to a big-time fashion show, but what she gets is much worse. According to Ashley, two of the bridesmaids from Peyton Cross's lavish Greenwich, Connecticut wedding have recently died in so-called freak accidents, but Ashley suspects foul play, and she's enlisting Bailey's help to prove it. Worried that she could be next on the hit list, Bailey dashes off to Ivy Hill Farm, home to Peyton Cross's catering empire. Bailey's just getting ready to interview suspects, when another bridesmaid ends up dead, proving to her that these freak accidents are definitely not accidents. Soon Bailey is following a trail of clues that lead her from her home in New York City, to Greenwich, Connecticut, and even to Miami, Florida, where she is being stalked by some sort of mad-man, or woman. As if that weren't bad enough, her relationship with Jack is on rocky ground, and she's unsure if it will stabilize anytime soon. As Kate White has written the BAILEY WEGGINS mysteries, I have become increasingly more and more interested in Bailey's life, and crazy mishaps. It's always enjoyable to have the privilege to read about a sleuth/writer, and with Bailey, readers get the best of both worlds. Not only that, White has created an array of eccentric characters who accompany Bailey through each book, and make each installment that much better. Overall, 'TIL DEATH DO US PART was a marvelous new addition to Bailey's mystery series, and I look forward to reading the next book shortly.

Mother of a read...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I really enjoyed this book. I am the mother of a 14 month old and have not been able to stay with a book (I like the murder mystery genre) since I was pregnant. For those of you with little ones you know what it's like trying to read with an infant needing your constant attention and then later a toddler ripping the book out of your hands. This one I can steal a chapter or a half a chapter here and there (during naps and such) and not get "lost" when I pick it back up again. I found it while reading a selection from it in Cosmo. What a find.
Third Time Is A Charm!

Bailey Weggins is back and just as good as ever! In 'Til Death Do Us Part, Bailey is still working for Gloss magazine as a true crime story journalist. It's been a while since she was involved in her last "story", and her life is pretty mellow and normal. Until she receives a call from Ashley. a lady that she was an attendant with in a mutual friend's wedding. Two of the other bridesmaids have died mysterious (and accidental) deaths, but Ashley fears that they were murdered and that she might be next. She asks Bailey to get on the case and do some digging. Bailey, never one to turn down an opportunity to solve crimes, gets involved and finds herself in the middle of all kinds of various mysteries. It was a page turner and I couldn't put it down! It's a must read...especially for Kate White fans. You think you know...but you don't...and then it's so obvious you'll question everything. Very good!
Kate White wows us with her third Bailey Weggins novel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Everyone knows that planning the perfect wedding can be murder, but when an aspiring domestic diva marries a rich businessman in a lavish, bridal extravaganza, nobody expects the bridesmaids to start dropping like flies. While originally honored to be a bridesmaid at the wedding of her old college friend, Peyton Cross, Bailey Weggins had had enough by the time the wedding rolled around and her friend turned into the temperamental bride from hell.Now, months later, when she is contacted by someone from the wedding party, Bailey isn't too keen on renewing the acquaintance. Some things are better left in the past. However, even Bailey can't resist the lure of yet another murder, especially when it concerns freak accidents involving two of her fellow bridesmaids.As a contributing writer for Gloss magazine, Bailey, whose articles frequently focus on crime, is hot on the trail of a breaking story, and yet again it's a tale of murder. The only problem is that she could be the next victim.When everyone gathered for the high society Cross-Slavin wedding weekend months ago, they never dreamt that they would be reuniting for funerals. The bridesmaids seem to be acutely accident-prone and it's beginning to look like more than just a coincidence. A third "accident" results in rumors of a Peyton Cross Curse and Bailey springs into action to save her friend's business and her own neck.Close calls come one after another as Bailey begins to investigate, and it doesn't take long for her to start looking over her shoulder and proceeding with caution as the culprit gets testy when she closes in on the truth. However, even an attack by a stranger in an empty apartment and a close call when her jeep is run off the road are not enough to keep Bailey from pressing forward. She doesn't know who to trust, and her closest friend is her black and white composition book containing her notes regarding an ever-growing list of suspects.In the midst of murder and mayhem, Bailey is also struggling to maintain her on-again, off-again relationship with psychiatrist Jack Herlihy. However, when Jack begins to analyze Bailey, she bristles and we're left waiting to see if Bailey and Jack can keep it together.Kate White, who also is the Editor-in-Chief of Cosmopolitan magazine, wows us with her third Bailey Weggins novel. (The previous books were IF LOOKS COULD KILL and A BODY TO DIE FOR.) As always, White draws us in with an interesting premise for her story, hooking us from the first chapter and keeping us guessing as to whom the culprit is up to the very last page. --- Reviewed by Amie Taylor
