Review: Lacy Steele Again!
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 6, 2013
Vanessa Gray Bartal's Wedding Day of Murder is the 6th of the Lacy Steele series, and I have been a fan of this series since the first one. So I guess, needless to say, I enjoyed this one as well.  With the continued sibling rivalry between Lacy and her sister, not to mention between Lacy and her mother, its not surprising that Lacy wants nothing to do with Riley's wedding.  But, of course, it is her duty as sister to throw the bridal shower and it better be everything her mother expects it to be.  The problem is that Lacy has to get her wisdom teeth extracted, and she has a very odd reaction to the anesthesia. Despite Jason's best efforts to take care of her, she wanders off and then the search is on.  But then it looks like in her delusional state she might have killed somebody, and Jason fights his need to be letter of the law and his love for Lacy.  He discovers that he'll do anything, including working with his up-til-now hated Michael. The conflicts and loyalties, some misplaced, and Lacy's penchant for finding trouble make this latest an enjoyable read.  There are multiple twists and turns and the plot is well developed with a somewhat unexpected ending, as well as few loose ends (Michael for one), to keep readers coming back.With many mystery series, one of the questions that comes up is whether each is truly a stand-alone.  You could probably read this one as a stand-alone, but you will be missing a lot of the history of the various characters, not only of Lacy and Jason, but of Lacy's college friends, the sibling rivalry, and just so much!
