Gilt by association - Karen Rose Smith

Between training
her new puppy, helping her sister with her baby, and searching for the
perfect vintage dress for Kismet's Valentine's Day dance, home-stager Caprice
De Luca has a lot on her to-do list. But she's never too busy to do a little
staging, and she's looking forward to thawing February's frozen real estate
market with her Hearts and Flowers Open House. Her client Louise Downing's
romantically decorated home practically staged itself. But when Louise is
found murdered, Caprice is forced to turn her attention from sweethearts to
suspects. And as the truth comes out in stages, she discovers that Louise had
more secrets than a box of chocolate truffles. . .

Praise for Staged to
Death

"A fascinating inside look at the art
of home-staging--but did I mention it's also an elegantly crafted murder
mystery featuring an irresistible sleuth?" --Leslie Meier
