Women's Fiction
Sandi Wardโs shrewdly observed, funny, and wonderfully touching novel tells of a fractured family, a teenage boy, and a remarkable cat whose loyalty knows no bounds . . . A boy and his cat. Itโs an unconventional friendship, perhaps, but for Charlie and Lily, it works beautifully. It was Charlie who chose Lily from among all the cats in the shelter. He didnโt frown, the way other humans did, when he saw her injured back leg, the legacy of a cruel previous owner. Instead, Charlie insisted on rescuing her. Now Lily wants to do the same for Charlie. Sheโs the only one whoโs seen the bruises on Charlieโs body. If she knew who was hurting him, sheโd scratch their eyes out. But she canโt fix this by herself. Lily needs to get the rest of the family to focus on Charlieโnot easy when theyโre wrapped up in their own problems. Charlieโs mother kicked his father out weeks ago and has a new boyfriend who seems charming, but is still a stranger. Oldest son Kevin misses his father desperately. Victoria, Charlieโs sister, also has someone new in her life, and Lily is decidedly suspicious. Even Charlieโs father, who Lily loves dearly, is behaving strangely. Lily knows what itโs like to feel helpless. But she also knows that you donโt always have to be the biggest or the strongest to fight fiercely for the ones you love . . .
