A mystery novel, The Precious Pachyderm, features Evangeline as the sleuth.

The concept of this book is to help plan a marriage made in the heavens using your astrology signs. It is laid out into 3 sections:
Part 1 for the Bride Part 2 for the Groom and others Part 3 your wedding day
*The best dates for the big day *Beautiful wedding and bridesmaid dresses and colors *Romantic honeymoon destinations *Handing the 12 husbands of the Zodiac, in-laws, and attendants
"Your wedding astrologer guarantees the stars will be on your side for your perfect wedding and beyond."
Overall it is a very nicely laid out book, does have some nice information. I do not personally put as much belief in following astrology. I was told I should not marry the man that has been my husband for over 40 years now because our signs would not work.
I won a signed copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway. I am under no obligations to write a review and do so voluntarily.
