What can stop the wedding of Police Chief David O’Callaghan and Chelsea Adams’ - only the Chief's first wedding which he has no memory of happening.
So off to New York the three go - David, Mac, and Gnarly - and while trying to getting the divorce papers signed they come across a murder - with connections that go back thirty years.
Really enjoyed the story, and reading about the characters again. Number 12 in the series will be read soon. ( )

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the Mac Faraday novels. They are detailed and gripping mysteries with interesting characters. I am surprised at how inexpensive this series has been considering it is so well written.

My Review:
I became acquainted with Lauren Carr's writing for the first time in 2015, I was immediately "hooked"! From the first page, Lauren Carr captivates the reader's interest and maintains it until the very end of the story...this book did not disappoint!
The story begins in a waiting line for a marriage license and continues to propel forward from there into many complicated situations. Will this wedding really take place? The reader is kept guessing until the end. Further complications involving murder are also included. Each time the reader feels he/she knows who did it, an other suspect arrives on the scene, until it is no longer clear who is the culprit. The last few pages is the first the reader discovers the answers to the main questions presented through the plot.
I love book which keeps one guessing!
The Book Cover and Title are both eye-catching and fitting. The characters are very realistic and, at times, stirs intense emotions in the reader. The scenes are easily visualized through descriptive wording. The story maintains a smooth flow throughout the tale and new characters and situations are creatively added. The story has a definite ending yet leaves the reader anxiously hoping for more in the series.
*This book was sent to me in exchange for an honest review, of which I have given. ( )

In Cancelled Vows by Lauren Carr we are back to visit Mac Faraday and other familiar characters. I love a stand alone series with returning characters. I feel a connection with them and want to find out what trouble they have found now. Cancelled Vows is a clean romance with fantastic mysteries galore.

Warning: Those drive through weddings in Las Vegas are real!

David O’Callaghan, a Spencer police chief, best friend and half brother to Mac Faraday, finds himself jumping from the frying pan to the fire when he heads to New York City.

Murder rears its ugly head and Mac Faraday and Gnarly, his K-9 cohort, rush to find answers. Gnarly is quite the character. He has a big attitude to go with his big personality and is a bit of a klepto. I can’t help but laugh at his and Mac’s antics. I mean, what kind of dog gets a dishonorable discharge from the service? Nice touch, Lauren, and its makes me love him more.

Curiosity and mystery from the opening page. I’m trying to figure out why…

I like the internet angle and internet trolls. I have heard nightmares about them and they come alive on Lauren Carr’s pages.

I am not liking David very much right now. Can the whore dog change my mind? I am liking Ali Hudson though. She is a witty investigative journalist, with a slew of Texas sayings and a determination to learn the truth.

Murders are adding up. The plot thickens and the suspect pool takes a twist I didn’t see coming. I love it. The pacing and my fear for the characters makes the suspense mount.

I love a happy ever after and this is great one! Cancelled Vows by Lauren Carr is one of her best…yet.

I received an ARC of Cancelled Vows by Lauren Carr in return for an honest review.
