Everly will have to go against the tide to crack this case! It all seems to be smooth sailing for Everly Swan. The island of Charm, North Carolina, is hosting tons of fun summer events, her iced tea shop is a hit, and best of all, she's finally dating the handsome Detective Grady Hays.

Grady follows the evidence, all of which points to Matt, Everly's friend and onetime fling. As Grady does his job, so does Everly—her unofficial chef-turned-sleuth job, that is. She's determined to clear her friend's name, but the arrival of a fancy new teashop and the Town Charmer, a gossip blog determined to rock the boat, complicates things. As Everly tries to keep rumors at bay and investigate the murder (and her new tea rival), the killer leaves a message in the sand ... Partners in Lime, the sixth book in Bree Baker's critically acclaimed Seaside Café Mystery series, is sure to make waves among fans of cozy mysteries!
