About the book
With Valentine's Day on the horizon, love is in the air as April Claus' friend Claire prepares to marry Jake Frost. However, when a ruthless killer strikes, it sends shockwaves through Santaland.
The winter wedding of Claire and Jake is a joyous occasion that April and Juniper will be a part of as bridesmaids. Love is abound, including for the reindeer pulling April's sleigh, who have their own romantic interests. While April is thrilled to be married to Nick (aka THE Santa Claus), she wonders if their romance has taken a backseat now that they are no longer newlyweds.
As the bridal party gathers for a fitting at the Order of Elven Seamstresses, Juniper’s new boyfriend, Sterling Redwinkle, arrives with a corsage. Tragedy strikes when he is pricked by a rose thorn and falls ill. Despite efforts to save him at the Santaland infirmary, he passes away due to poison on the thorns. The question remains - was Sterling the intended target, or was it the devastated bridesmaid?
Suspicions fall on Ivy the florist, with rumors labeling her as 'Poison Ivy'. It is up to Mrs. Claus to uncover the identity of the poisoner in time to save Claire and Jake's wedding at Castle Kringle.
