Book two fast forwards six months from where Murder Uncorked ended. Nikki's now become good friends with Andres sister, Isabel and is focusing on her job at the winery, rather than her sleuthing. That is until Isabel ends up in jail for a murder she didn't commit. Nikki knows that her friend is innocent, but the police think it's a closed case. So, the only thing to do is to take matters into her own hands.
Murder by the Glass was another well written mystery. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite cozy mystery series. In addition to the mystery, I'm enjoying the love triangle that's developing between Nikki, Derek and Andres. I really like all three characters and can't decide how I want this to end. Another feature of this series that I like is the way she interweaves recipes with wine pairings throughout the book. Most authors stick the recipes at the end. I like that Scott puts the recipes at the end of the chapter in which they appeared, while it is fresh in your mind.

Winery employee Nikki Sands has barely recovered from finding her first dead body when she finds her second one -- this one, a bride at her own reception. Worse, Nikki's friend Isabel is arrested for the murder, and Nikki can't help but investigate.
This is a cute mystery. I like the characters, though Nikki's potential romantic relationships are mainly failing because no one in this book talks to each other about their feelings. The mystery is interesting, and there is some character development, though not as much as I would have liked.

The mystery was decent but the love triangle isn't really working for me. Loved the return of the new & improved boys of summer. I hope they continue to help Nicki with future investigations.
