The first novel in the all-new Golden Girls Cozy Mystery Series!When Dorothy's obnoxious date is found dead in a hotel freezer, it not only ruins a gorgeous cheesecake but threatens the elaborate St. Olaf–themed wedding Rose is hosting.Things are heating up, and not just because of Blanche's hot flashes. Rose's cousin is eloping to Miami, and Rose is playing host. If she can't balance the groom's family's snobbery against the traditional St. Olaf wedding week guidelines, her hometown may never accept her cousin again! Dorothy quickly realizes she needs a date with whom she can exchange wedding-related wisecracks. Turning to a newfangled VHS dating service, she believes she's found the ideal conversationalist. Unfortunately, what looks good on TV can actually be a total jerk in real life. It seems she'll just have to enjoy the company of Sophia, Blanche, and whomever Blanche has targeted for a hookup.As the Girls all pitch in, Rose is thrilled that the tea-and-fish-themed kickoff event is perfect, not a herring out of place. That is until Dorothy's date is found dead—face-planted in an otherwise scrumptious-looking cheesecake. With every guest a suspect (especially Dorothy) and a marriage on the line, the four besties must ID the real killer, get the should-be-happy couple down the aisle, and make sure nobody from St. Olaf gets lost in the wilds of Miami. It's up to the Golden Girls to sleuth out a way for friendship and love to win the day!

      The Golden Girls--Dorothy, Blanche, Rose, and Sophia--live again in this sparkling cozy. Rose is in a dither planning her young cousin Nettie's wedding, having to incorporate the myriad required St. Olaf traditions into the event under the watchful, sometimes disapproving eye of her cousin Gustave, St. Olaf's mayor. That Nettie's prospective, wealthy in-laws, owners of a swanky Miami hotel, have their own contrasting ideas about the ceremony adds to her stress. When Dorothy's VHS-dating-service date, who ditches her during the date, winds up dead in the freezer of the hotel, face down in cheesecake, Dorothy quickly becomes the chief suspect in the murder. To clear Dorothy, the four band together to find a killer, almost losing their lives in the process. A herring shortage and finding a clown for the bachelorette party and a donkey for the processional complicate matters. Humor, plot twists, convincing portrayals of the Golden Girls, and the Miami setting add up to a satisfying cozy that will be relished by Golden Girls fans.
