Terror in Taffeta is the first in Marla Cooper's cozy mystery series starring destination wedding planner Kelsey McKenna. It opens on the day of a wedding that Kelsey has organized in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

Aside from hungover bridesmaids, all seems on track for Nicole Abernathy and Vince Moreno to get hitched until bridesmaid-zilla Dana (a late addition to the wedding party) collapses as the priest is about to pronounce the couple man and wife.

Turns out that Dana is dead, poisoned. Complicating Kelsey's life further, local police arrest the bride's sister Zoe for the murder, and insist on the wedding party's remaining in town. It's left to the wedding planner to figure out who really did the foul deed.

A second death follows, and Kelsey discovers that the priest who performed her clients' wedding service was an impostor! She solves the crime, at high personal risk, proving along the way that a wedding planner really does need to be a multi-tasker!
