Two women wanted to open a cosy bookshop. They discovered a world of adventure.
Reyna and Kianthe dream of opening a friendly book shop together, serving the very best tea and cakes. Worn wooden floors, plants on every table, firelight drifting between the rafters – all complemented by love and good company. But Reyna is an elite bodyguard to a vengeful queen, and Kianthe is the most powerful mage in existence. Leaving their lives behind seems . . . impossible. Yet they flee to Tawney, a town nestled in the icy peaks of dragon country. There, they open the bookstore they’d always wanted.
What follows is a tale of mishaps, mysteries, dragons, and a murderous queen throwing the realm’s biggest temper tantrum. Through it, these two women will discover what they mean to each other – and their world.

My thoughts on Can’t Spell Treason without Tea?
I loved this book! I actually picked it up at a local bookstore because of the cover and immediately started reading.
If you’re craving a heartwarming fantasy with a touch of high stakes, dive into this enchanting tale featuring a mage and a former Queen’s guard who not only find love but also embark on the journey of creating a bookstore/tea shop.
This delightful read combines whimsy with a compelling plot and tension. Kianthe, the Arcandor, stood out as my favorite character, and witnessing her and Reyna bring their dream to life was truly enjoyable. The subplot involving dragon eggs and the Queen’s pursuit of Reyna added an extra layer of excitement to the story.
