Murder Over Coffee

Iced lattes, awkward exes, and one unexpected murder-just another summer in Silver Pines.

Summer's on the way in Silver Pines, and things should be heating up in all the right ways-sunny days, fresh blooms, and steady progress at The Mill, where Clare Garner is finally catching her breath after two back-to-back murder cases. Her custom furniture orders are flowing in and she's learning to navigate the comfortable, if complicated, rhythm of life between Jackson Barrett and Blake Catalano-two kindhearted men who both know her better than she sometimes knows herself.

But when a coffee world insider winds up dead mid-sip at an iced coffee tasting hosted by the Sunrise Sips Coffee Club, the summer vibe curdles-and Clare is once again caught in a swirl of secrets and suspicion.

With the rumor mill spinning faster than a ceiling fan in July and secrets tucked behind every hedgerow, Clare finds herself juggling gossip, romance, and a growing list of suspects. Between poring over clues, dodging well-meaning matchmakers, and trying not to spill sawdust on her favorite sundress, she'll need all her intuition-and maybe a few iced lattes-to figure out who's hiding what.

Because in Silver Pines, the charm's brewed just right-but the secrets tend to spill over like a clumsy barista.
