| Tennessee - Present Day Jessamine Bricker is the owner and mastermind of Bricker Consultants, Inc., a proposal planning business. She is a workaholic and is known for her meticulous events where the potential groom can ultimately surprise his (or her) future mate with a fabulously unique proposal. Jess is devoted to her business and lives and works above TonyCakes Bakery in Nashville. But she's just been informed that the owners of the building want to sell it, and that means Jess will lose her home as well as the office and storage facility. The building owners would love to sell the entire place to her, but Jess doesn't have that kind of money. Which is why she accepts a job that may be the answer to her problems. Despite the fact that Jess has no love for the snobby former classmate, Diana, the opportunity to make sufficient money to buy the bakery building entices her. It seems that Diana's potential fiancé, Trenton Tillard, the Fourth's first proposal was less than adequate for the social media "personality" that Diana sees herself. So, Diana wants Jess to come up with a high-end event that can be viewed by all. Unfortunately for Jess, this planning period includes a week long retreat with Diana, her cousin, and her wedding planner in a spa in the mountains. Jess immediately knows upon arrival that this isn't going to be a relaxing time. The Golden Ash resort has no internet or cell phone connection, which sets Diana off on a tangent. She also begins making crazy demands of Jess, who is feeling more connected to the family running the spa than the people she is traveling with. But when Jess finds a guest dead in a small pond, and another in a sauna room, she's beginning to think there is something way more dangerous going on than just having to face Diana's pouting. A PROPOSAL TO DIE FOR is an entertaining tale with interesting characters, and a surprise discovery as to why there are people dying at this luxurious retreat. Jani Brooks |
