The Foxglove Killings

Summary from Goodreads:
Gramps always said that when the crickets were quiet, something bad was coming. And the crickets have been as silent as the dead. It started with the murdered deer in the playground with the unmistakable purple of a foxglove in its mouth. But in the dying boondock town of Emerald Cove, life goes on.
I work at Gramps's diner, and the cakes―the entitled rich kids who vacation here―make our lives hell. My best friend, Alex Pace, is the one person who gets me. Only Alex has changed. He's almost like a stranger now. I can't figure it out...or why I'm having distinctly more-than-friend feelings for him. Ones I shouldn't be having.
Then one of the cakes disappears.
When she turns up murdered, a foxglove in her mouth, a rumor goes around that Alex was the last person seen with her—and everyone but me believes it. Well, everyone except my worst enemy, Jenika Shaw. When Alex goes missing, it's up to us to prove his innocence and uncover the true killer. But the truth will shatter everything I've ever known about myself—and Alex.

Excerpt
“Miserable
people are gonna find misery, Angela,” Gramps said to her. “There’s no point in
rolling over and playing dead.” He nodded at me. “Tell that boy to go stick it
and be done with it.”
“Dad.” Mom pulled the jaw clip from her
bun, letting her dark hair unravel down her back. “If you had your way, this
would be a saloon.”
Gramps
poured pancake batter into a pan and shrugged. “What’s wrong with that? I could
wear my wooly chaps.”
Mom
rolled her eyes at me. “I thought I burned those.”
