Blurb:
Edie’s an overbearing cat behaviorist who’s not big on people. Magnus is a newly-rich game developer who likes to be in control. When the two of them meet at Gretchen and Hunter’s masquerade engagement party, the loathing is mutual. Unfortunately for them—and everyone else—they’re in the wedding party together and must deal with each other for the next few months.
But when Magnus’s younger brother falls for Edie’s sister, he begs for his brother’s help in concocting a plan to win her over. If Magnus can keep the prickly Edie occupied, his brother will have time to woo Edie’s sister. Of course, Magnus isn’t interested in the slightest, but Edie is…intriguing. And stubborn. And smart. And sexy. And they might have more in common than they thought.
Before long, it becomes a challenge between the two of them to see who will be tamed first. But how’s Edie going to react when she finds out that Magnus is using her? And how’s Magnus going to handle the fact that he’s fallen for a cat lady?
Review:
| I swear if Bianka ends up with her own book before Daphne I will punch something. I don't like her, not even a little. She had a couple of small parts of the book told from her point if view and they just proved how bad she really is. I wonder if Levi will get a book and I hope that Asher will be the one who will get a book after Sebastian. We didn't see the other groomsmen and bridesmaids a lot, but I think that we are going to meet them in the following books. Why did Magnus have to be a hot, romantic computer geek? That's bad for all the other computer geeks that aren't like him. As it's obvious from the blurb, it's Magnus the one who will have to earn our and Eddie's forgiveness. His way of persuading us was very sweet and heart melting. I don't know if there is an app or something like that in reality and if there isn't someone should make one. While I was reading the book, I thought that Jessica Clare and Jennifer Probst should combine their writing skills and write a book that will encourage the readers to visit animal shelters. Truthfully, I don't know how anyone could live with 9 cats in a house. They are too many on my opinion. At least Eddie and Magnus's house are big enough and the poor animals won't feel trapped and overcrowded. I think I have the wrong impression for the cat ladies and Eddie helped me to overcome a few the images of Cat ladies I had in my mind. It's great to see Gretchen and Hunter again, especially since Hunter is the most reclusive. |

Excerpt
“If I didn’t like you, would I do this?”
And he leaned forward, put his hands on the sides of her face, and pressed his mouth to those full, red lips.
She stiffened underneath him, clearly surprised. Hell, that made two of them. Magnus hadn’t expected to kiss her. But when she’d pursed that pretty mouth in a sarcastic expression, he felt determined to prove her wrong. To show her that yes, he could like someone like her, and here was what he had to offer.
So he kissed her.
It was a quick kiss, his mouth simply pressing against hers for a moment, and Edie too startled to part her lips under his. Out of habit, his tongue grazed the seam of her mouth before he pulled away, and then they were both left blinking and staring at each other.
“You kissed me,” she said softly, and she sounded shocked.
“I know. I . . . kind of want to do it again.”
“Okay.” She blinked up at him.
Good enough. He pulled her close again and this time, when he pressed his mouth to hers, those lush lips parted for his tongue. He wanted to groan when he felt her tongue brush along his, a hot snake of desire ripping through him. Then her mouth opened wider for him and they were locked together, tongues melding as the kiss grew deeper and more passionate, and she was clinging to his shirt and he was holding her and slanting his mouth against hers over and over again, licking her like he would if he was between her legs and she had her thighs on his shoulders and—
Magnus pulled away again, and Edie gazed up at him, completely dazed. “Go out on a date with me,” he pressed again. He released her.
She wobbled and took a step backward to regain her balance. He almost reached out to catch her—almost—but he stopped himself. Edie hated being treated like she needed help. So he watched while she straightened her jacket and smoothed her hair, noticing her lipstick was smeared on that pretty, pretty mouth. He wanted to reach out and fix it with his fingers, but he was afraid if he touched her again, he’d grab her by the hips and fling her down on his bed.
Date. That was what they needed. Just a date.
“Date?” he asked again when she remained silent.
Her fingers fluttered to her mouth. “I . . . I’ll think about it.”
Magnus grinned, because that wasn’t a no. In his book, that was as good as a yes. “You do that.”
