A fantastic new cozy from the hilarious Molly Harper. This book had me laughing, wincing, smiling and sighing. With a quirky cast of characters this story drags us into several mysteries and a murder or two. I thoroughly enjoyed this and highly recommend.
Not my usual go to as I’ve been reading fantasy, but this was pretty entertaining! I don’t want to give any spoilers. The characters are relatable, the dialogue is quirky, and the mystery aspect keeps you entertained. I would definitely read this as a series LOL a deep dive into the families? More stuff at the resort? It was the perfect length of story for this book though and I loved it
Thank you, NetGalley for the arc!
This story had so much potential - what a great premise but it totally failed to deliver anything but BACKSTORY. OMG - stop with the stories from days of yore from these characters. Who cares?! Like nothing was happening in the story because the book took forever to explain every incident and memory and feeling this character had from childhood on.
Plus, Jesse is a big ungrateful whiner. She has a dream job and all she can do is complain about how awful it is. Just quit and get a real job. Stop running your own biz if you're so miserable.
And then the Diana character was so overdone. It was getting ridiculous.
This was a fun romp through a spa. Fun being a relative term! Loved Jess and the Osborne's...hated the rest of Diana's crew. What awful people for poor Jess to be stuck with. I knew early on who the bad guy was, then pretty much figured out that other bit of mystery, but it didn't detract from the story. Really enjoyed this quick read.
I ADORE Molly Harper and this was another fantastic book, romance meets murder in this cosy witty and throughly charming story! Fast paced it had plenty of drama and intrigue!
Molly Harper once again proves her exceptional storytelling abilities in her latest novel, “A Proposal to Die For.” From the very first page, readers are drawn into a captivating storyline filled with intriguing and quirky characters, along with a plot that is impossible to put down. The blend of humor and suspense works beautifully, making it an entertaining read that will keep you hooked from start to finish. Harper's witty dialogue and vivid descriptions create an awesome cozy mystery that’s wrapped in a romance, leaving you eagerly turning the pages as you navigate the twists and turns of the story. I highly recommend this 5-star novel to everyone.
A little bit romance, a little cozy murder, and some excellent comeuppance for the mean girls? Yep. Sign me up.
Jess is a proposal planner... a little bit like a wedding planner, but for when the wanna be groom can't quite get that all important romantic question just right? Enter Jess... planning the perfect romantic proposal.
At least until Diana enters the picture. Not satisfied with almost fiancé, Trenton's first proposal she ropes Jess into helping her.. I mean Trent plan the perfect second proposal. And part of this planning requires Jess, Diana, cousin Kitty and Diana's wedding planner all to trek up to the Golden Ash retreat for planning and pampering.
There was a lot going on in one little cozy murder/romance novel... and without any spoilers it had some delightful surprises, some expected romances and was an all around good time.
Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for providing this book, in exchange for an honest review. .
Thoroughly enjoyed the book. Jess is a proposal planner who gets roped into planning the perfect proposal for Diana, a former schoolmate she dislikes. It brings her to a spa resort in Tennessee called Golden Ash where she’s met with drama, murder and romance!
I love Molly Harper's witchy romances so I was prepared to fall in love with her foray into cozy mysteries and she did not disappoint! A Proposal to Die For has all of her usual wit, charm, and swoony moments with an added twisty mystery to solve. Jess, the main character was funny, relatable, and likeable - I can't wait to read the next in the series!
Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC 🙏
This was a pretty good read! Some light romance mixed in with drama and intrigue, we follow Jess on her journey as a Proposal Planner. Her business brings her to a beautiful resort called Golden Ash in Tennessee, and I think it's safe to say her life changes forever during this trip.
At this point, I will die for Molly Harper’s books. They are so damn fun, light hearted with dramatic and serious under tones but they don’t overshadow the good in these.
Excellent. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read and review an advanced copy of this novel. I highly enjoyed it and will be recommending it to others.
Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for providing this book, with my honest review below.
A Proposal to Die For was the sweet mystery that I love to read, as it feels low stakes and compelling at first but quickly evolves into a bit of a game of clue.
Jessie is a proposal planner, a job I can’t believe doesn’t exist. Known for her dreamy proposals with incredibly attention to detail, she gets hired by Diana, a former schoolmate she’s not a huge fan of. While usually it’s the future grooms hiring her without the future brides knowing, Diana hunts down Jess in a bid to get an Instagram perfect proposal, which should tell you something about Diana. As part of the job Jess is sent on Diana’s pre-proposal girls trip to a dreamy off the grid resort by Trenton (the fiancé and a pecan heir).
After this the crud hits the fan and we quickly get sucked into murder and intrigue, not to mention some very, very mean girls. Luckily we have a sweet romance for Jess to get us through, and Jess is hilarious, which also keeps things from getting too dark.
I don’t want to reveal more because it’s wayyy to complicated to keep it spoiler free, but I had so much fun with this!
