Summary: ENTERTAINING SERIES....
Review: Bailey continues to write true crime articles for Gloss magazine. Only now she is her own source. Bailey has become an amateur sleuth, and she is about to go to work once again. When fellow bridesmaid Ashley Hanes calls Bailey, months after the wedding, Bailey figures she wants a favor. She does. In a way. Ashley is calling about the recent deaths of two women. It just so happens they were bridesmaids with Ashley and Bailey at a spring wedding. Suddenly Bailey sees this favor in a whole new light - a self-serving, life-saving light.

Bailey heads to Greenwich to investigate the deaths. She eventually ends up with a third body and a couple of her own scary moments. The local police think she's screwy and the Greenwich population is... well... different. Bailey is sooo ready to figure this out and go home.

This is the third Bailey Weggins mystery. Bailey's character has grown in wit and wisdom since the series debut, "If Looks Could Kill." This mystery is mildly complex, and the storyline, as a whole, enjoyable. The characters in Bailey's high society world are still as exasperating as ever. And Baileyette's (series followers) will enjoy Bailey's "will she, won't she" behavior with her latest love interest. It's an amusing series for the light-hearted reader who welcomes a good dose of dry humor in their mystery.

If you haven't listened to this series on audio book then you haven't met Bailey. Actress Kate Walsh is Bailey and those sarcastic, witty moments are some of her best reading scenes.

Summary: fluffy as frosting
Review: Bailey Weggins is a true crime reporter for Gloss, a New York's woman's magazine. Bailey receives a phone call from Ashley Hanes, a fellow bridesmaid in Bailey's former college roommate's wedding. Ashley is very disturbed about the deaths of two of the other bridesmaids. She fears she is next. Bailey feels it is just coincidence until Ashley also turns up dead in a freakish accident. Bailey starts investigating the deaths. She is being stalked and her car is run of the road. Finding out who is behind the deaths becomes a life and death situation for Bailey.

As editor of Cosmopolitan magazine, Kate White, knows the world in which her books are set. Her characters are a too bit one-dimensional to be intriguing or even believable. The plot was a little short on reality too. What police department would really discount the deaths of three bridesmaids as coincidence. Bailey is a feisty character and the book is a light, easy read. It's not a bad book, but just don't expect too much out of it.

Summary: Third Time Is A Charm!
Review: Bailey Weggins is back and just as good as ever! In 'Til Death Do Us Part, Bailey is still working for Gloss magazine as a true crime story journalist. It's been a while since she was involved in her last "story", and her life is pretty mellow and normal. Until she receives a call from Ashley. a lady that she was an attendant with in a mutual friend's wedding. Two of the other bridesmaids have died mysterious (and accidental) deaths, but Ashley fears that they were murdered and that she might be next. She asks Bailey to get on the case and do some digging. Bailey, never one to turn down an opportunity to solve crimes, gets involved and finds herself in the middle of all kinds of various mysteries.

It was a page turner and I couldn't put it down! It's a must read...especially for Kate White fans. You think you know...but you don't...and then it's so obvious you'll question everything. Very good!

Summary: Kate White wows us with her third Bailey Weggins novel
Review: Everyone knows that planning the perfect wedding can be murder, but when an aspiring domestic diva marries a rich businessman in a lavish, bridal extravaganza, nobody expects the bridesmaids to start dropping like flies. While originally honored to be a bridesmaid at the wedding of her old college friend, Peyton Cross, Bailey Weggins had had enough by the time the wedding rolled around and her friend turned into the temperamental bride from hell.

Now, months later, when she is contacted by someone from the wedding party, Bailey isn't too keen on renewing the acquaintance. Some things are better left in the past. However, even Bailey can't resist the lure of yet another murder, especially when it concerns freak accidents involving two of her fellow bridesmaids.

As a contributing writer for Gloss magazine, Bailey, whose articles frequently focus on crime, is hot on the trail of a breaking story, and yet again it's a tale of murder. The only problem is that she could be the next victim.

When everyone gathered for the high society Cross-Slavin wedding weekend months ago, they never dreamt that they would be reuniting for funerals. The bridesmaids seem to be acutely accident-prone and it's beginning to look like more than just a coincidence. A third "accident" results in rumors of a Peyton Cross Curse and Bailey springs into action to save her friend's business and her own neck.

Close calls come one after another as Bailey begins to investigate, and it doesn't take long for her to start looking over her shoulder and proceeding with caution as the culprit gets testy when she closes in on the truth. However, even an attack by a stranger in an empty apartment and a close call when her jeep is run off the road are not enough to keep Bailey from pressing forward. She doesn't know who to trust, and her closest friend is her black and white composition book containing her notes regarding an ever-growing list of suspects.

In the midst of murder and mayhem, Bailey is also struggling to maintain her on-again, off-again relationship with psychiatrist Jack Herlihy. However, when Jack begins to analyze Bailey, she bristles and we're left waiting to see if Bailey and Jack can keep it together.

Kate White, who also is the Editor-in-Chief of Cosmopolitan magazine, wows us with her third Bailey Weggins novel. (The previous books were IF LOOKS COULD KILL and A BODY TO DIE FOR.) As always, White draws us in with an interesting premise for her story, hooking us from the first chapter and keeping us guessing as to whom the culprit is up to the very last page.

Summary: too much Gloss
Review: I didn't DISLIKE this book, but I didn't love it either. I think it just felt to formulaic, without enough charm in the writing to make me not mind. Other readers, obviously, differ. I agree with the reviewer who said that one just couldn't believe that Bailey would be involved with these people (although there WAS some motivation for becoming re-involved) and the people were too uninteresting to care about. Also, I think it is time to develop Bailey's character more -- I do not seem to know her better after each book. she could be anyone.

Summary: Very light entertainment
Review: I enjoy this series because I love hearing about the life of a NYC magazine writer. This is the third in a series and better than the other two since discovering who the murderer was more clever and suspenseful. A recommended beach read!

Summary: Mother of a read...
Review: I really enjoyed this book. I am the mother of a 14 month old and have not been able to stay with a book (I like the murder mystery genre) since I was pregnant. For those of you with little ones you know what it's like trying to read with an infant needing your constant attention and then later a toddler ripping the book out of your hands. This one I can steal a chapter or a half a chapter here and there (during naps and such) and not get "lost" when I pick it back up again. I found it while reading a selection from it in Cosmo. What a find.
