"Business is bubbling at Mia's catering service and cooking school, Mia's Morsels, but toil and trouble are not far behind. Mia just accepted her toughest gig yet: last-minute wedding planner for Magic Springs' own Romeo and Juliet. Though the small town is fairly accepting of magic, two families have been locked in a vicious feud spanning generations. Unfortunately for both families, they're about to become in-laws! Amethyst and Tok are excited to wed in a few weeks and somehow Mia must ensure the event is flawless. But when she goes to pick up paperwork from the couple's previous wedding planner, Mia discovers the woman murdered in an apparent attempt to stop the contentious union. Now, not only is Mia a prime suspect, as the new planner she may also be the killer's next target. Backed by her squad, her charms-literal and figurative-and a protective amulet from her Grans, it's up to Mia to save the star-crossed couple's wedding, her professional reputation...and maybe even her life!"--

Mia Malone is about to take on a huge job. She has been hired as a wedding planner for the first time and is taking over for another planner that was fired. It's a big wedding too. Amethyst and Tok are seen as Magic Springs' Romeo andÃ? Juliet. Their families have been involved in a feud for so many years some people don't even remember what they were fighting about. Mia plans to give the young couple the wedding of their dreams and she knows it won't be easy. The first order of business is meeting with the former wedding planner to find out how much work she has ahead of her. Then she needs to get the in-laws and their demands under control.
Turns out the first step wasn't so easy as when Mia went to find the previous planner she was dead. It appears she was killed in order to kill the wedding. Since she found the body and benefitted from the woman's death Mia finds herself at the top of the list of suspects. Who knows, she may meet the same fate since she is moving full speed ahead with the wedding plans.
Christine has been asked to step in for a bridesmaid who can't attend. Trent and Levi become the girl's bodyguards and Gran equips Mia with a protective amulet so that Mia can get the couple to the altar to say their I Do's and fly away on their honeymoon and live to tell the tale.

I like my paranormal stories on the light side. I am not a fan of werewolves or vampires but witches like Mia and her Gran I could read about all day long. This time we meet some new "creatures", the groom's tribe. The groom's brother was a little over the top but the rest of the family had pretty normal issues for being involved in a feud. I was very pleased by the way these families were portrayed, they were kept nicely in the cozy realm.
I love the core characters Ms. Cahoon has created for this series. Mia is still learning about her powers but she has a great teacher in her Gran. Both are strong independent women with huge hearts. Christina, the sister of Mia's ex has moved in, works with Mia, and is attending culinary school. She and Mia have become best friends and work together so well. Trent and Mia's relationship is really growing as is Christine's relationship with his brother Levi. We were introduced to the guy's mother when she pitches in to help and I hope we see a lot more of her.
Readers are treated to a great whodunit full of twists and turns, witches and wolves, murder and mayhem. My personal suspect list was pretty long but it did include the right guilty person and they moved up the line pretty rapidly the closer we got to the wedding. The ending played out realistically with a believable motive just with some very unusual participants.
I always admire this author's writing style. She sets a scene with ease and delivers a unique story that is fun to read with engaging characters without falling into the trap of being overly wordy.
Three Tainted Teas was a charmingly delightful read. I can't wait to visit Magic Springs again in late March when Four Charming Spells is released.

A howling good time!
Three Tainted Teas by Lynn Cahoon is a spirited tale. I enjoy visiting Magic Springs to catch up with Mia, Christine, Grans, and the other characters. There is a great cast of characters in this series. They are warm, friendly people who are slightly quirky. Mia Malone is a kitchen witch who has taken an old school building and turned it into her home plus the base of Mia Morsel�s, her catering business. In Three Tainted Teas, Mia is asked to become a wedding planner at the last minute for the nuptials of Amethyst and Tok. Mia is soon glad that she charged double her normal fee when meets the combatting families. It turns out that Tok�s family are shifters. Neither family is happy with the union. When Chelsea, the former wedding planner, is found dead in her room, it is obvious someone wants to stop the nuptials. Mia has no intention of letting that happen despite controlling parents, manipulations, and threats. Three Tainted Teas is the third book in The Kitchen Witch Mysteries. It can be read as a standalone, but I believe it is better to read in order (or at least read One Poison Pie). It will allow you to get to know the characters and the history of the school. I like Lynn Cahoon�s writing style. It is lighthearted and casual (makes for good reading). The characters are like old friends. I picked up Three Tainted Teas and finished it within a few hours. I like the humor sprinkled throughout the story and I love the paranormal elements. The whodunit has a large suspect pool since many of the guests and family members do not want the couple to wed. There are clues to help readers solve the crime as well as misdirection. There are threats and sabotage that leaves Mia scared but determined to make sure the wedding takes place. I thought the murder was a snap to solve, but I kept reading to see what would happen next (to see if this wedding would occur or not). There is a hint at the end of what will occur in the next A Kitchen Witch Mystery. Three Tainted Teas is a howling good time with a fly-by-night friend, wedding planning woes, a departed planner, feuding families, terrorizing threats, a battling book, mouthwatering meals, and one fatigued kitchen witch.
