The Patio Tea in the July Shade

A gentle summer story set on the patio at Bluejean Corner, where Neva Jean hosts a July tea filled with citrus‑mint herbal tea, apricot scones, and friendship. When a card marked Reserved for a Friend mysteriously disappears, the afternoon turns into a heartwarming reminder that kindness always makes room for one more. Perfect for readers who love cozy mystery stories, short stories for women, Christian inspiration, and faith‑based reflections about belonging and hospitality.
