Moving back home proved to be the best idea yet because after her husband died, she found out he had heavy debt.

He became her benefactor and mentor as she worked to renovate both places. His friendship moved her forward and now she was going to host her first wedding and reception with out of town guests staying at her Inn. But when Bryan’s body is found on her premises, his mouth stuffed with an eclair that she had made earlier, her old friend Sgt. Tyson Daly takes the case. Suddenly Mimi finds herself desperately trying to clear her name and also playing detective before the killer can strike again!
