A Cat Cafe Christmas, a warm and cosy Christmas rom-com by Codi Gary-Review

About The Book

A laugh-out-loud, opposites attract romance about three of the world’s most beloved C’s: Christmas, Coffee, and Cats.

Veterinarian and animal lover Kara Ingalls needs a Christmas miracle. Opening the Meow and Furrever Cat Café to find loving homes for adorable, adoptable cats was a dream come true—but with more cats than customers, it’s quickly turning into a nightmare. If Kara can’t figure out some way to get the café out of the red, it won’t last past the holidays.

Marketing guru Ben Reese may be annoyingly smart and frustratingly bossy, but when he hatches a plan to put the café in the “green” by Christmas, Kara realizes that she’d be a fool to turn down his help. And so what if he turns out to be an excellent problem solver and nerdy-hot—he can’t even handle fostering one little kitten. She needs to keep their relationship professional and focus on saving the cafe.

But if Ben and Kara can set aside their differences—and find homes for all the cats by Christmas—they might discover that, by risking their hearts, they’ll have their own purr-fect holiday . . . together.

My Thoughts

What a cute warm hug of a Christmas book. A Cat Cafe Christmas is the perfect read for your cold winter’s night while sipping hot chocolate with your cat(s) snuggled in your lap.
This rom com features Ben and Kara. Kara is a veterinarian and co-owner of Meow and Furrever Cat Café. They need a Christmas miracle and plenty of donations to stay open and run the veterinarian’s office as a low cost one for the disadvantaged like she wants to. There are such cute blurbs at the beginning of each chapter talking about the cats for adoption.

With more cats than customers it looks like they may be in trouble.
Ben is a marketing guru who decides to help put together a marketing plan to help the cats, it has nothing to do with how pretty Kara is of course. He just may turn from grumpy to sunshine the more time he spends with Kara though.

Kara and Ben both have a lot of healing to do though from previous relationships and are in this for the cats.
Ben admits he is not at all a cat guy but when he takes a kitten into his apartment to watch for a bit with it’s crazy and mischievous antics it seems as though this little one has him now wrapped around its paw.

It’s heartwarming to see the healing process this couple is going through, and my favorite part is seeing the cats adopted into their forever homes.
Warm, cosy, Christmas, romance and full of adorable and adoptable cats. What more could you want in a holiday read?

About The Author

About the Author

Codi Gary grew up in a small town in Northern California that no one has ever heard of. In 2011, Codi and her husband uprooted their two children and moved two states over to Southern Idaho. They only had one car and during their first Idaho winter, Codi read all the books on her shelf (TWICE) and played a lot of peek-a-boo. But one day, while her children were napping and her husband was at work, she sat down at her lap top and made a list of things she wanted to accomplish before she was thirty.

Number One- Lose weight (still working on that!)

​Number Two- Finish one of her novels

Since the time she was eleven, reading and writing was an escape, but she could never finish a story. Life, school, love…she just kept getting distracted.

But in August 2012, Codi wrote “THE END” on her very first full length novel.

It had a little bit of everything in it and man, was it terrible. But it did give her something to work with…

The small town of Rock Canyon, Idaho.

In September 2012, Codi saw an “Open Call” for Valentine’s Day novellas from Avon Books, for their new digital imprint. She submitted her first contemporary romance novella to them and ten days later, she got an email…

“Hi Codi!

We really enjoyed THE TROUBLE WITH SEXY and would like to include it in our Valentine’s Day Anthology!”

Seven year and twenty-four books later, Codi is still writing. She is a member of the RWA Honor Roll, and her first full length novel, Things Good Girls Don’t Do, has sold over 100,000 copies. Right now, Codi is working on several projects and trying not to get caught up in Tik Tok. Follow Codi on social media for more updates, and adorable animal pictures!

Thanks so much for stopping in today. May your day be blessed.
