The Cat In The Hat

Kitty Coven #3.5

by Celeste Hall

Werecats and Witchcraft, A Pagan Romance

Nicole is an orphaned witch who has spent most of her life homeless, wandering from place to place in an effort to remain hidden from those who fear her dark gift. But from the moment she stepped foot in Aspire, New York, she felt as if she had come home.

Now her life is being turned upside down by the unexpected arrival of a man from her past. Can he convince her to finally stop running from her fears, or will he be the reason that she returns to the unforgiving highway.

This is a short Halloween addition to a pagan romance series involving werecat shifters and witches. There are some suggestive situations and shapeshifter nudity, but these stories are safe for most mature teens and young adult readers.

About the author

The oldest of nine children, I was tutored at home during childhood, first by my mother and then a German woman with a passion for science and history.

I could never find enough books to keep my mind busy, even with the vast library that my father kept. I wrote my first short stories around the age of nine, and was completing full length manuscripts by the age of twelve.

I left home around fourteen or fifteen, staying with family and friends among the western States. As the years passed I continued to read everything I could lay hands on.

In adulthood I began building towards a career in criminal justice, particularly criminal psychology. I received various certifications, awards and schooling in the field before discovering parapsychology and finding myself drawn into the mystery of the mind.

A received a PhD in Parapsychology but continued working towards a future in criminal justice until a car accident in 2005 left me with a traumatic brain injury and learning how to walk again in a swimming pool.

After two years of physical therapy I knew that my body was no longer capable of supporting the rigors of the career I'd chosen. Then, when my mother discovered some of my old manuscripts in her basement, I decided to try writing once more.

I've released a couple of romance novels I wrote as a youth, but have also published some more recently completed erotica.

I have a large harddrive full of unpublished stories and novels, some from childhood and some from more recent. I hope to eventually offer them on my website (if nowhere else) to let others enjoy watching a daydreaming little girl mature into adulthood - through her writing.

After reading 5 books I was actually starting to tire of the Kitty Coven series but thankfully the series ended on a good note for me... Cat In The Hat is an innocent little Halloween story that compliments the rest of the series quite nicely, it ties into the 3rd and 1st books in a really rather clever way. The lead character in this story was cool too, I felt a bit sad for her because when she shifted into her feline form she wasn't a very attractive kitty, more like a tip cat as we say here in Australia, all the other cats in the series have been handsome males or gorgeous female kitties so it was nice to see all types of cats represented, diversity and all, haha..

It could have had more of a Halloween vibe and referred to the paganism element a little more but it was still a fun and enjoyable read, a big step up from Cheaper by the Coven which I really didn't enjoy. I hope Celeste Hall continues to release stories in this series as they're perfect for pure escapism. Happy Halloween, kittens.

A delightful series

It's a truly wonder read, it holds your attention and keeps you smiling. The whole series keeps you interested but yet can be read alone
