At Halo House, Cherry Tucker finds the tea deadly sweetβ¦
With a new art teaching gig at Halo HouseβHalo, Georgiaβs posh independent living homeβand Halo society scrutinizing her family and her love life, Cherry Tucker needs to stay out of trouble. However, her sleuthing skills are sought out by Halo Houseβs most famous resident: Belvia Brakeman, the ninety-year-old, blind CEO and founder of Meemawβs Tea. Belvia confides in Cherry that the family tea empire is in jeopardy. The CEO suspects her daughter has been murdered and she might be next. Her offer is hard to refuse, but will have Cherry treading on Forks County Sheriff toes, namely her personal Deputy Heartache, Luke Harper.
Amid her town troubles, can Cherry put her reputation, romance, and life on the line for the final request of a sweet tea tycoon? While she juggles senior citizen shenanigans, small-town politics, and corporate family scandals, Cherry finds the sweet tea business cutthroat in more ways than one.
