The Bridal Affair

Celie Dupree and Dr. Rhys Thorne are finally ready to walk down the aisle. With the Bayou Bouffant fully restored and the Dupree Emerald display bringing a much-needed tourism boom, Celie's life is on track—or so she thinks. The peace is instantly shattered by the arrival of Percival Percy Saint-Pierre, a distant, arrogant Dupree descendant who contests Maggie Mae's will, determined to claim the newly profitable salon.Percy doesn't just want Celie's business; he plans to buy and demolish the historic Riverview Hotel, a place fiercely protected by the ghost of Flapper Bunny La Fleur. Bunny's fury escalates when a seemingly minor antique—a locket key tied to the hotel—is stolen during a meeting at the salon.As Celie juggles wedding vendors and legal papers, she and Rhys realize the locket is the key to a second, older Dupree family secret that Percy is desperate to destroy. Celie must rely on her furious spectral posse and the ghosts' deep knowledge of the hotel to expose Percy's criminal collaboration and save not just her home, but the heart of the town—all before she says I do.
