About the book
Manhattan fashionista Kelly Quinn thought she’d left her upstate New York town far behind . . . until the Seventh Avenue expat returns home to revamp her grandmother’s consignment shop into an upscale boutique—and unwittingly sets a trend for murder . . .
After her rising career as a Manhattan buyer is derailed, Kelly has mixed feelings about relocating back to Lucky Cove, in spite of her big plans for the soon-to-be-renamed Curated by Kelly Resale Boutique. What’s left of her luck starts running out when a customer puts on a black lace dress that triggers visions of someone being murdered. As if the haunted “Murder Dress” isn’t enough to kill business, the psychic’s doppelganger cousin has just been found bludgeoned to death.
Was Maxine LeMoyne the real target or was it a case of mistaken murder? With some creepy pre-Halloween bargain hunters walking the night and Kelly suddenly a person of interest, a second murder rocks the close-knit town. Now Kelly could be the one who ends up talking to dead people when she’s stalked by a killer determined to take her out in high style . . .
And others are saying
Murder Wears a Little Black Dress is a lively cozy mystery with fashionable clothes, personable characters, murder, mystical forces, and mayhem.

I enjoyed everything about the story. It was well-written, and the author threw in twists and turns that kept me guessing.

And I thought
It's always fun to get into a new series at book 1.
Murder Wears A Little Black Dress was a fun and cozy read!
I was intrigued by the cute and fun cover and I was not disappointed.
All the characters are fun and bring their own style to this series.
The main character Kelly who is struggling to work everything out and manager the consignment shop she inherited is a sweet, strong and savvy business woman. Even though all the drama and haunting almost gets her down she manages to pull up her big girl pants and stand up for herself and make a 'go of it'. Even after being a suspect in a couple of murders and being ridiculed by her uncle and his trophy bride who accuses her of 'playing' Nancy Drew.
But in the long run Kelly figures out who is the real murder(s) but not before she's knocked out by one suspect and then held at
gun point by the real culprit.
I really enjoyed this fun new series and I'm waiting anxiously for more and to find out if Kelly has a 'love' connection with the
attorney in town.
I received a complimentary copy.
My review will appear on retail sites and Good Reads.
