From New York Times bestselling author Gemma Halliday, and her mother Susie Halliday, comes a family cookbook featuring the mouthwatering recipes from the USA Today bestselling Wine & Dine Mysteries!
Trained chef Emmy Oak was just beginning an illustrious career as a private chef to the stars when her mother's sudden illness called her home to California's Wine Country to take over operations at her family's small winery, Oak Valley Vineyards. While Emmy anticipated trouble from the corporate giants of the region, just waiting to gobble up small, struggling operations like Oak Valley, what she didn't anticipate were catty Silicon Valley socialites, vengeful business rivals, and a string of murders falling at her door! What's a girl in Wine Country to do when homicide follows her everywhere? Indulge in a glass of vintage wine and little cooking therapy!
This cookbook includes all the recipes featured in the first 7 books of the USA Today bestselling Wine & Dine Mysteries series! Savory dishes, decadent desserts, and affordable wine pairings are featured, along with photos of the delicious dishes. Enjoy glimpses not only into Emmy's adventures, but into the authors' lives as well, through the family recipes handed down from generations of Hallidays to the more modern interpretations of both simple weeknight dishes and elegant dinner party fare.
"Gemma provides marvelous recipes with helpful shortcuts for timid chefs, and suggestions for the perfect wine pairing!"

"'A Sip Before Dying' revolves around two of my favorite things, wine and a good mystery. Another thing I love about this book is that it includes recipes for some of her best catered dishes. I can’t wait to check out the Brie Fettuccini recipe!

"The Wine & Dine Mystery series by Gemma Halliday could definitely be a movie on the Hallmark channel. You will savor everything there is to savor, you will be left with a satisfying feeling at the end, and you will LOVE where Halliday leaves the reader with Emmy and Detective Grant..."
