Everly Swan just wants to take it easy on the beach-but running her iced tea shop and tracking a killer, she can wave her relaxation goodbye!

In the seventh and final book of Bree Baker's critically acclaimed Seaside Cafe Mystery series, Pleading the Fish, Everly Swan's wedding plans are upended by a dead body. She'll have to run her teashop, find a dress, and catch a murderer all before she can walk down the aisle!

Cafe owner and amateur sleuth Everly Swan, like every Swan woman before her, is cursed in love. The only problem? Her fiance Detective Grady Hayes has something to say about it-he doesn't believe in magic and is determined to prove the curse wrong so they can spend their lives together. Everly wishes it could be so simple!
It feels like a sign when a historian looking into Swan history is found dead in an antique wishing well, and Everly fears the curse is spreading. Grady takes the case, looking to find justice and prove the curse wrong, while Everly does a bit of investigating on her own. Big change is coming for Everly and her friends, but with mysterious strangers lurking about and someone leaving increasingly threatening messages for the happy couple, Everly's not sure she'll get her happily-ever-after!
