There are pets in a LOT of books but the cat in this one is
the most important device for plot (and romance) movement. So Catmas Evergreen
who later becomes Tinsel is a fully integrated and important character in this
cute, cute novella.
Jessica Raymond doesn’t have a great run with
relationships and three weeks before Christmas her lasts one ends thanks to her
girlfriend’s serial cheating ways. Jessica’s ego is more hurt than her emotions
but she still needs to deal with the emotional impact of her ex hooking up with
her boss. She is in no frame of mind to be adopted by a grey cat with silver
eyes – no matter how high its adorability quotient. But when that happens she
can’t very well turn it out either. So while she is saddled with fostering it
before she finds its rightful owner, she decides to take it to the vet. The vet
turns out to be one super-hot Dr. Taylor Mitchell, with whom Jessica
doesn’t start of on the right foot. Plus Jessica feels totally judged by Taylor
for not enthusiastically becoming a cat mom raising her heckles and becoming
defensive. But circumstance and cat keep bringing Jessica and Taylor into each
other’s orbit and Taylor is frankly, just too impossible to resist.
Taylor is the stuff all things wonderful are made of. Jessica
is a little bit of an ass in the relationship initially, but then settles into
a pretty okay groove. The combination of Wonderful and Pretty Okay works well
in this totally sweet romance.
Totally recommended for high level cuteness and sweetness.
