When life gives you cats, open a café.

When a spell gone wrong brings more than just magic to Theo Brylar's life, things in Adenashire get a little…purrplexing. Suddenly, cats of all shapes and sizes are drawn to him, much to the amusement of Faylin, the forest lynx (and Theo's "house cat"). But when Faylin suggests opening a cat café next to Arleta's bakery, Theo finds himself juggling more than feline antics.

Between his long-lost father reappearing, his mother's distaste for that fact, and the lingering grief of his brother's death, Theo's family drama surfaces at the most inconvenient time. With Arleta pregnant and facing her own fears, Theo must untangle his emotions and reconcile with his past—all while keeping his cat café (and family) from spiraling out of control.

Escape to Adenashire for a heartfelt, cozy fantasy filled with warm drinks, the healing power of love, friendship, and furry companions.
