Joy to the Cats (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781915378224)

The most joyful time of the year unites two lost souls and sprinkles Christmas magic on a heartbroken cat who's lost her way.

Lucy is done with Christmas. Everything about this time of year reminds her of what she lost. Her best friend, Emily, is dead, and she can't see the point of celebrating. She's retreated into her work, too afraid to face the real world. Being on her own is the best way to take care of herself.

When Lucy finds herself at Forever Paws animal shelter, seeking a shred of comfort, she's stunned when Emily's cat is there. Fenella Fancy Pants went missing after Emily died.

Lucy has to take Fenella home with her. She doesn't believe in the magic of Christmas, but this has her wondering... could there be a life after Emily?

Kelvin despises Christmas. It was a year ago that his little sister lost her life. Faced with the soul-destroying task of clearing Emily's apartment, he's hurting so badly he can barely breathe. He failed Emily. He couldn't protect her, and he'll never open himself to that hurt again.

Seeing Lucy again only reminds him of Emily, tightening the band of pain around his chest. They were always together. Best friends for most of their lives. He doesn't need this, but he's drawn to the elven, beautiful designer who is hurting almost as much as him.

Will Lucy and Kelvin find peace together? A way to remember Emily that heals rather than hurts. And maybe, a way back to remind them there really is something magical about Christmas.

One small, feisty fluffball may just have the answer to all their problems.

Enjoy this 12 Cats of Christmas romance 30,000-word novel, which features a confused cat who doesn't believe in Christmas, a sweet happy ending for two people who deserve it, and a sprinkle of magic.
