Weddings never go quite as planned, but Everly Swan wanted to pull off
the perfect wedding for her childhood friend, Judy Miller. Not only
would she be helping a friend, but it would be great publicity for Sun,
Sand, and Tea, her seaside café and iced tea shop. Unfortunately, the
wedding cake has barely been cut when the groom disappears, only to
be found dead. Did Judy kill her husband to gain all of his wealth?
Everly doesn't think her friend is guilty but there are suspects aplenty
at the large wedding. Meanwhile, someone appears to be stalking
Everly, and Detective Grady Hays is determined to keep Everly safe.
NO GOOD TEA GOES
UNPUNISHED is the second book in A Seaside Café mystery series and can easily be
read on its own merits. I haven't read the first book, LIVE AND LET CHAI, but I'll definitely
be picking it up because I want to see more of the town of Charm,
North Carolina. Bree Baker provides enough information on the
characters and their relationships that it's easy to jump right in and
enjoy NO GOOD TEA GOES
UNPUNISHED.
I love the setting of Charm, North Carolina! Bree Baker makes me long
to visit this fictional seaside town and wander the streets, particularly
with the Summer Splash festivities in town. Bree Baker does a
marvelous job at capturing the small-town atmosphere even during the
tourist season. And oh does Everly's café sound lovely! Her menu
selections for food are small but tasty sounding (and yes, there are
recipes!) but the delightful assortment of iced teas is enough to warm
any Southerner's heart.
NO GOOD TEA GOES
UNPUNISHED has it all as Bree Baker has crafted likable
characters, an engaging storyline, and a picturesque setting. I can't
wait to see what future books have in store for us! NO GOOD TEA GOES UNPUNISHED is a delightful
cozy mystery and easily recommended for fans of the genre.
Iced tea shop proprietor Everly Swan lands in hot
water when a wealthy groom-to-be is found dead outside her
café
Everly Swan's iced tea shop has
quickly become a favorite in the quaint seaside community of
Charm, North Carolina. Thanks to an unusually busy tourist
season, word of her delectable creations has traveled all
the way to Martha's Vineyard, swaying an old friend and her
high-profile fiancé to tie the knot on the beach right
outside Sun, Sand, and Tea. When the couple requests that
Everly cater the entire event, she is thrilled to accept the
offer—and all the wonderful exposure that's sure to come
with it. But before the wedding bells can ring, Everly finds
the groom's body heading out with the tide… and it's up to
Everly to catch the culprit!
