Professional wedding planner Mallory is attempting to plan Olivia's perfect wedding. She's dreaming of a white Christmas—as in a white wedding gown and all the trimmings. But that's not the only event that's keeping everyone busy. Olivia's family is in real-estate development, and they're sponsoring Paws and Poinsettias—a benefit for the Port Quincy animal shelter. Meanwhile, Mallory's mom wants to use her daughter's connection to snag a job staging homes for the company...and the current stager is not filled with holiday cheer at the news that she might be replaced. When the endangered employee downs some antifreeze-spiked punch at a party, Mallory has a murder to solve—among other mysteries including a missing cat, a toy-drive heist, and a baby found in a manger thirty years earlier.
