Mistletoe and Mayhem - (Red Truck Mysteries) by Janice Thompson (Paperback)

This is a cute book. RaeLyn and Mason are getting married!!!! A wildfire has happened....... Who did it? Will the town come together for this joyous day? Keep reading:)

What could possibly go wrong? I mean, Raelyn is getting married in a week and it’s all planned out and on a spreadsheet. This is the third and final book in the little red truck mysteries and I’m so sad to see them end. The Hadley family in Mabank, Texas just seems like a part of my life. There have been times when I’ve been reading and looked up and realized I’m in my own living room and not in Mabank. But several things have definitely gone wrong, the least of which is a blazing fire that puts the Hadley Ranch in jeopardy. But that’s where Raelyn and Mason’s wedding is to take place! There’s a mystery to be solved about who or what started the fire. Will the wedding take place as Raelyn has always dreamed since she was seven years old or will the venue have to be changed? What a wonderful, heartwarming story that had me on edge at times. I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher through Celebrate Lit but was not required to write a review.

RaeLyn is getting married and has an amazing wedding planned. She is holding the ceremony outside, at her parent's farm...in December. Friends and family will sit on haybales covered with homemade quilts. A week before, a giant fire breaks out that moves quickly across the parched land, straight towards RaeLyn's family farm. RaeLyn and everyone in her family jumps in to fight it. Most people think the fire was started by lightening. However, RaeLyn thinks it may have been set by a local farmer. Raelyn also wonders if two twin boys could have been involved. They are about the same age as her brothers were when they caused all kinds of mischief, and tried to lie their way out of it. Even though she wants to solve the mystery of the fire, RaeLyn will not let anything upset her plans for a fabulous wedding. This is a fun romp through all the challenges she faces the last few days before RaeLyn gets married. It also describes amazing decorations, yummy food, and a surprise--not a happy one--for RaeLyn's mom. There is humor, faith, and a little intrigue in this third installment of the series--although this story stands on its own. You will enjoy this five-star book! Thanks to Barbour Books, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “Mistletoe and Mayhem” by Janice Thompson, for the purpose of review. Opinions are my own.
