A workplace romance mystery, second in the Trojan Women arc of Olympus Inc!

Laodice Troiades has always been in love with love. At Olympus Publishing's famous - and lucrative - Bridal section, she's able to indulge her most romantic dreams. Now, with her editor retiring, Laodice is aiming at the big chair, and there's only one person standing in her way: Telfer Terzi; tall, dark, and extremely annoying.

Telfer Terzi doesn't have time for romance. Bridal is big business, and he knows he can maximize the bottom line. Laodice is an excellent writer, a notorious fool for love, and an unfortunately gorgeous distraction he doesn't need.

But when the two of them are sent on assignment to a couples pre-wedding retreat, the festivities turn deadly. They'll have to work together to solve the mysteries of murder -- and the heart.

Unexpected perils in this sequel

No rating

Another fun book in the Olympus, Inc. series. We meet old and new friends (and enemies) as main characters Laodice and Telfer end up doing more investigative journalism than they initially intended. Although this is a romance, there are interweaving mysteries to solve, some of which are pretty perilous. The action takes place in a retreat with around a dozen other characters. Because they were all introduced together, it took me a while to remember who they all were, which kept me from fully engaging with “whodunnit.”

This is the middle book of a trilogy, and I’m intrigued to see how the background arc plays out in the next book.
