A Novella-Book 1-Bridal Shop SeriesNew York City dress designer to the stars, Amelia Pettipiece, cleared a unique path to fashion-glory. With her career soaring, grand penthouse apartment on Central Park, and handsome boyfriend who supports her ambitions, Amelia could not have dreamed of a better life when she left Pittsburgh after college. But when Amelia's signature design, the famous FiFi Hererra's wedding dress, disintegrates off the bride's body as she walks down the aisle, every thread of Amelia's charmed life unravels. Amelia's Instaglam life turns into an Instaslam. She runs back home to her gram's place in Eagle Bend, Pennsylvania to hide until she can figure out what happened to the dress and how to weave her tattered life back together. Though Amelia finds comfort in staying with Gram, she begins to see that she's neglected the woman who raised her. Pettipiece Boutique is falling apart and a slew of hunky hangers-on are showing interest in the riverfront property and in Amelia. Just when Amelia is at her lowest, a customer with a unique problem arrives at the boutique, distracting Amelia from her crumbled life. Can she and Gram create the dress of a lifetime for a desperate bride? Can Amelia trust herself to send another bride down the aisle after the FiFi debacle? Does any of it really matter if Amelia's already lost it all?

A lovely introduction to a new series from Kathleen Shoop following famous dressmaker Amelia, her lovable gran and supporting characters, or will they become main characters? Who knows! A Puff of Silk was an enjoyable refreshing tale, with a little twist here and there, possible love interests and being able to follow designs as they grow from an idea to a finished form was really great.
Amelia finds herself lost in the social world of her celebrity client, blinded by the new lifestyle she fails to realize how quickly it can all fall apart right before her eyes. And it does, literally everything, including the 'social media' wedding gown of her new 'bestie' she designed.
She leaves the cold, harsh, city behind her to the warmth and safety of the small town she grew up in with her gran. But even her safety net has holes in as she starts to notice not everything is as rosy as she thought for her gran and the nostalgic dress shop she owns.
When a bride to be arrives at the shop desperate for wedding dress help, Amelia doesn't realize that the challenge could be the start of bright new beginnings.
I'm really looking forward to the next story, and wondering what treasures it will unfold for Amelia, her gran and the shop, along with their creative designs.
