I just love reading books from this author. They always make me laugh and the way she use scriptures throughout the story is phenomenal. I loved the details she uses when describing the town and the different characters. I thought the story was funny, intriguing and filled with life lessons. It's funny how we judge others and come to conclusions about them without a reason. I couldn't put the book down and boy was I surprised at the end.

Annie and Warren's twin daughters are both planning weddings. That is enough to have any father scrambling to find money to pay for all the expenses. He wants his daughters to have their dream weddings. After a burglary takes place at the bank Annie decides she knows who the guilty person is. Can you imagine thinking your own husband has stolen money from his own bank? She is such a great character and I really loved her sleuthing. She kind of reminded me of Mrs. Fletcher from Murder She Wrote. Annie is hot on the trail of suspects and the town better watch out.

One of the best things in the story is the journey she takes to discovering how she suspects people who are searching for acceptance, forgiveness and love. Do we sometimes look at someone and think that they don't fit in? Annie's bible scripture for each day is exactly what she needs. I love when God gives you direction through His word. As Annie tries to solve the mystery of the missing money, she discovers something about herself. Do we forget to spend time with our family because we are so busy doing other things? I loved the characters that Annie interacts with. There are some emotional moments in the story as she "interviews" her suspects that opens her heart to these people. Dont miss this great story that keeps you guessing and along the way, reminds us to reach out and help others. ( )

rabck from Mysscyn; a cozy mystery. Middle-aged wife Annie is determined to solve the mystery of who stole $25k from the local bank and listen to the Lord more, all at once. Could it be the hubby, who suddenly appears with $25k cash for the twin's weddings? Or some of the other bank and church folks? ( )

Sometimes I just need a cozy mystery — a light, quick, entertaining read filled with quirky characters and a puzzle to solve. And since it is June and The Wedding Month, I picked The Wedding Caper by Janice Thompson. This title has been on my Kindle a looong time! It sure fit the bill. This book is good for those times when a little fun is what you need.

Annie Peterson’s twin daughters have announced they are both engaged. A little stunned by the news, Annie quickly gets into planning mode — until her husband comes home with $25,000 in cash to pay for wedding expenses. This would not necessarily be a problem except that the bank where her husband works has just been robbed — of $25,000 in cash! Determined to get to the bottom of this mystery, Annie starts investigating with the help of an online course in investigative skills.

No murders, just a robbery, but a puzzler to be sure. A night deposit with a lot of cash goes missing. And while there is no shortage of suspects, there are no clues. Annie’s investigation is rather informal but she does depend on her online course and her daily devotionals to look at the facts through God’s eyes. That is my favorite part of this whodunit — the way Hanna aligned the tips for investigators with the daily wisdom from God. And while Annie does crack the case, she learns a lot more about how God views the people involved. Perfect for a weekend read, The Wedding Caper has a strong faith message running through it. I look forward to reading more books involving Annie.

This is a fun little cozy mystery about a woman who is currently helping her two daughters plan their weddings. Her husband suddenly shows up with $25,000 to pay for the weddings, which is the same amount missing in a burglary at the bank where he works. Could he be the one who took it or is there some other explanation?
This was a fun read, the main character gets herself into a lot of crazy situations and of course all comes out right in the end--with a lesson learned along the way. If you like chick lit and/or cozy mysteries this will be right up your alley. ( )
