FIRST BOOK IN A NEW BEACHSIDE COZY MYSTERY SERIES! When a body turns up on the boardwalk outside Everly Swan's iced tea shop and café, she becomes the number one suspect in a murder case. Can she bag the culprit, prove her innocence, and dish up the real killer before it's too late?

Life hasn't been so sweet for Everly Swan over the past couple of years, but now she's back in her seaside hometown of Charm, North Carolina. The proud new owner of Sun, Sand, and Tea—a café right on the beach—Everly thinks that things are finally starting to look up. Until a grouchy customer turns up dead on the boardwalk with a jar of one of her specialty teas lying right next to him! When an autopsy reports poison in his system, things don't look good for Everly or her tea shop.

As the townspeople of Charm, formerly so welcoming and homey, turn their back on Everly, she fights to dig up clues about who could have had it in for the former town councilman. With the maddeningly handsome Detective Grady Hays discouraging her from uncovering leads and a series of anonymous attacks on Everly and her tea shop, it will take everything she's got to keep this murder mystery from boiling over.

I really loved this book because I felt so connected to the characters and the romance in here, while it's only a sprinkle, had me so excited. I didn't guess the murderer at all and because I also live in North Carolina, this really was nice to read.

3.5 rounded up. I really liked that her business wasn't opened yet. Feel like I'm hitting my stride with mysteries

Great new series! I love the idea of an ice tea cafe! Every has spunk and common sense. There were plenty of suspects. The side characters are great. The legends of the island are fun. I will be reading more from this series.
