(Summary via Goodreads)
In Dazzling Death, the fourth book in the Cosmetic Crimes Mystery series written by Arlene Kay, main character Marky Davis is just trying to enjoy and life her life. Unfortunately, that is not to be ...
When Teagen Doyle, who was a soap opera star years ago and her husband come to town, everyone goes crazy !! Teagan and Brendan take residence at Madge Stone's estate and Marky dislikes her instantly which should be fine, they do not run in the same circles. But for some reason Teagan is drawn to Marky and especially to Roddy, Marky's fiancé and hires both of them. She hires Marky to paint her portrait and Roddy to be the face of her latest business venture, Teagan's Tinctures. But Teagan has more in mind for Roddy as she goes about seducing him ....
Although Marky's heart is broken, she tries to put Roddy and Teagan out of her mind and focus on her business, Poppet. Sadly, that changes when Teagan dies during a romantic dinner with Roddy !! Marky doesn't approve of what he did but she knows deep down that he is not capable of murder, so she decides to try to prove his innocence.
However, before she can get anywhere with Teagan's murder, something else happens in their little town of Harbor Bay that sends Marky rolling.
Readers will fall in love with this story instantly. You will love the characters and all their sass, the town, the businesses and all the craziness within. Trying to solve Teagan's murder will be difficult so I would just encourage you to sit back and let the story draw you in and ride it through.
