Not what I was expecting. Cute romance though. A cat has fallen in love with her human and , in true fairy tale fashion, is granted a week in which to get her human to tell her he loves her. Between twilight and dawn she transforms into a sexy woman working her feline wiles on her love and during the day this kitten tortures his fiancée.
Unknowing of Maggie's true self, Deena, Nick's artist sister, and Hoop, his best friend and the bête noir of his fiancée, are totally supportive of Maggie's appe...more

The plot is pretty simple. So is the storytelling. A cat, Maggie, falls in love with her own, Nick, and is enchanted to be human, only at night, for one week. He has to admit he loves her in that one week or else she goes back to being a cat. Easy story that you know how it will end, no real surprised during the storytelling, but it’s cute and heartwarming, and Nick has good friends who help make up a subplot of the story. Unfortunately I would have liked to have seen that plot a bit more fleshe...more

Charming story. Maggie, a cat, makes a wish to become human because she's in love with Nicholas, her owner. She has a week to make him say he loves her. After her transformation, she shows up on his doorstep naked and does her best to seduce him, but Nicholas has a fiance and is a workaholic. His best friend and sister end up helping Maggie win him over.

This is such a cute story that I find myself thinking back on it at times. That doesn't happen very often. I adore Maggie, both the cat and the human, as does everyone in the book. I LOVE her reaction to the human side of things and though I'm not a cat owner, I've been around them enough to believe Ms. Kenner did a great job of catching that inherent attitude. I recommend this to any lover of cats and/or romance.
How did this get four stars? I picked it up for .99 thinking it would be at least amusing, but it was barely that. I at least can say it was easy enough to read (despite grammatical errors and typos), but I barely finished it. It was THAT bad. Not even a so bad it's good. Just bad.
This book sounded hilarious when I first heard about it. A cat falls in love with her owner and pulls a "Little Mermaid"? But it's actually charming and adorable and I loved it. Seriously, I was smiling for the entire last half of the book. SO CUTE. Read it if you can find it!
Not my favorite of this series. I may never be able to change clothes in front of my dog again. :) But it was cute. The best part was seeing the characters from the other books before they were in the other books. In retrospect I am glad I read this one last.
i loved everything about this book it was so freakin cute how she was a cat and she was so clueless with the human world, really good storyline, ugh loved it! plus im a big cat lover so this was a book i really enjoyed!
I am not historically a cat person. That being said, this was a cute story. Just what I needed to get me through a boring weekend. Julie Kenner never disappoints!
This was a tad on the silly side. But lots of times., that's just what i need. life is way too serious most of the time.
I love cats so this was a no-brainer for me to buy. :-) It was an enjoyable book and I've read it a couple times.
After reading another series of Julies I was disappointed in this one.
HAHAHA I can't believe I read this. Surprisingly entertaining...

Rating - 4.5
Awesome story. Maggie is Nick's cat, has been for 3 years, and she has fallen in love with him. She's given about a week to get Nick to fall in love with her but she's only human during the night and she can't tell him that she's his cat.
The characters were great, I loved Nick's sister Deena and his best friend Hoop who are helping Maggie get Nick even though they think she lost her memory and only knows that she loves Nick.
It was cute and funny. Great read!

Maggie the cat has fallen in love with her owner Nicholas. She is given the opportunity to become a human at night for one week with the caveat that must get Nicholas to say he loves her by the end of the week or stay a cat forever.
Absolutely charming. Maggie is so innocent and fresh-faced, a real joy to read about. Nick is a little more resistant, but still is a great guy.

This is a cute story if you like cats. The heroine is a cat during the day in fact she is Nicholas' cat. But she wants to be more so she begs Old Tom to be something else and he allows her to be human during the night. The catch Nicholas has to declare his love to her within a month. Cute, sweet nothing major. Just a sweet simple romance!
