Review: Wedding at Sea (Muir Harbor #3) by Melissa Tagg

About the Book (From Goodreads)
Lilian doesn’t remember anything about her life before the day Maggie Muir found her on her front porch—a toddler, abandoned and alone. And maybe that’s okay. She has a beautiful life at Muir Farm, including an adopted family she adores and a successful career as a lawyer. But she also has a secret . . . one that raises just as many questions about her future as it does her unknown past.

And, of course, it would be private investigator Wilder Monroe, her brother’s best friend and the bane of her existence, who sniffs out her secret before anyone else.

Wilder has spent the past three years trying to close the one case his father couldn’t—the mystery of Maggie Muir’s long-lost granddaughter. But the decades-long search has become more tangled than ever. It’s become more personal, too. Not only are the Muirs the closest thing to family he has left, but if he can solve this mystery, maybe he'll keep himself from drowning in the one he can’t . . . the truth about his father’s death.

In the midst of secrets and swirling questions, Maggie asks a favor of both Lilian and put aside their bickering and work together to plan her summer wedding. It’s a big ask, made all the more difficult when danger comes calling at Muir Farm. But if the two enemies can stand each other long enough to pull off the event of the year, they just might solve a mystery in the process.

And the biggest discovery of all? That sometimes the one your heart longs for is the last person you ever would've expected.


MY THOUGHTS

This was absolute perfection! What a stellar conclusion to this series! I LOVED the first two books. I fell in love with the characters and the setting and was captivated by the mystery. So to say I was eager for this final book is an understatement. And I'm happy to say it exceeded my very high expectations. 

This is one of the best romances I've ever read. I loved watching Wilder and Lilian's dynamic shift. It was so much fun. And so sweet. It never felt forced but felt like a very natural progression, which I appreciated so much.  

Needless to say, I highly, highly recommend not only this book but the whole series. While this might could technically stand alone, I'd still recommend reading them in order because of the overarching mystery and how each story builds on the others. 

I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.

FIVE STARS

    1. I checked Goodreads, and if I counted right, I've read 12 of her books. I hadn't realized there were so many, lol! I've loved them all, though. :D
