Synopsis

Welcome to the Bean Hive Coffeehouse where the coffee is as hot as the gossip.

Maybe the killer drank decaffeinated.

Coffeehouse owner turned amateur sleuth Roxy Bloom is serving up all the fall coffees tourists love at the Neewollah Festival, where all the proceeds are going to save the Bee Farm from a major resort development.

When Camey Montgomery, owner of the Cocoon Inn-Honey Springs only Inn, is seen fighting with the development owner and he shows up dead in the Inn, she’s named the number one suspect.

Roxy must put her sleuthing kills to work not only to prove Camey didn’t kill anyone, but calm all the jittery citizens in Honey Springs by bringing the killer to justice.

It's October in Honey Springs which means they are getting ready for their Halloween festival. While preparing for the festival Roxy and Patrick are also starting their wedding planning and trying to keep the peace between Roxy’s mother and aunt. Everything seems to be going well when the body of a businessman visiting the local B&B is found during the festival.

I loved this book. This is one of my favorite series. The characters are great with their quirky Southern charm. Roxy is one of my favorite characters in this series, she is a caring person who is determined to help her family, friends, and community when she feels there is a wrong that needs to be corrected. I also love the fact that Roxy helps out the local animal shelter by sponsoring an animal that may be harder to adopt in the Bean Hive Coffee Shop. The mystery has a great pace and several twists and turns to keep you entertained and guessing until the big reveal. I also love that the recipes that are included in the book are for both pets and people.

I listened to the audio version of the book the second time though. The narrator is wonderful at bringing the story to life with her accents. She adds to the reading experience by bringing the story to life.

I would recommend this book to anyone who loves cozy mysteries, pets, female sleuths, food, coffee, and romance. I received an ARC of this book in hopes I would give a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own and in no way have been influenced.
