When life gives you a second chance, sometimes it comes with claws. 🐾❤️📚

After his divorce, Lance Reed trades city chaos for the cozy charm of a seaside bookstore in Sunshine Bay. He hopes for peace, quiet, and maybe a fresh start—until the local pet rescue asks him to host a few adoptable cats in his shop.

There’s just one small problem: Lance hates cats.

Enter Raven Johnson, the spirited, cat-loving woman who runs The Cat’s Meow Rescue Centre. Also divorced and in her fifties, Raven has poured her heart into caring for her daughter and her feline friends. She has no time—or courage—for romance.

But when the bookshop and cat shelter become unexpectedly intertwined, sparks begin to fly amid the fur and fiction. Can Lance open his heart to the four-legged troublemakers invading his store—and to the woman who believes love deserves a second chance?

📚The Bookworm and the Cat’s Meow is a sweet, heartwarming small-town romance filled with humor, healing, and hope. Perfect for readers who love later-in-life love stories, animal rescues, and uplifting women’s fiction with a cozy coastal vibe.

Part of the Shops at Sunshine Bay series of heartwarming, small town, later in life, romances.
