Caitlin starts a new job, and finds herself drooling over her boss. But with a rubbish childhood and still dealing with an abusive ex, she doesn't think she deserves anyone. But Will is determined, and more importantly, willing to wait for Caitlin.
OH! But for one teeny tiny thing, this would have been a 5 star! I'll get back to that, though.
Cat is still dealing with her abusive ex. He is stalking her and keeps turning up in random places, kicking her door in! So, quite rightly, she doesn't want to start anything, let alone with her boss. But Will is a sweetheart, and once he knows about the ex, he's willing to wait for Cat, as long as it takes.
I loved Cat! She's not perfect, she doesn't pretend to be, but she is working and playing hard. She wants to be rid of the ex, but he isn't taking any notice of her saying no. I LOVED Ben and Alex, Cat's best friends! Oh those guys are the BEST best friends a girl could wish for, made me wish for a male best friend! I love what they do to help her to recover from the ex. But as serious as that is, they are so much fun!
It's not especially steamy, as Cat herself finds out 😉. But that's not what this book is about. This book is about getting yourself free of a toxic relationship, giving yourself time to heal, and letting yourself love again, on YOUR terms. And it's about friendships that can help you do that, IF you let them. It's about falling in love again, when you really didn't expect to.
What that teeny tiny thing was? I wanted Will and I don't get him! He was, in his own words, smitten with Cat that first day, and he falls hard and fast, but HE doesn't tell me. And I wanted him to!
So, for that reason only. . .
4.5 stars, rounded UP for the blog!

1.) Vampires
2.) A "naked" cat/demon
3.) It makes me laugh!
Jaye Wells has created an amazing world that is a combination of fantasy, biblical mythology, and humor!
She has made up words (trampire being my fav.)...
And she has started us on an amazing adventure that I cannot wait to finish!
4 Stars...LOVE IT!

My 2 year old daughter really likes this book as she loves cats. I added in some of my own sound effects here and there but she's beginning to recognise most of the items in the shop now.

I find it much easier to keep up with the things I'm into on here than other platforms as it's very easy to pick who and what you want to follow.
