A Cat Café Christmas by Codi Gary -> Restarting December 14th, 2022

[Aly]

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

[Trisha]

16 chapters

ha(view spoiler)[ I love that little kitten. I wish Ben would just keep him!

I like that Kara stood her ground and told him how it made her feel. I like that she's also letting him know she has too much in her life right now

and I'm glad he's admitting he's having trust issues. what a crappy brother. Ben's right, they should have communicated better but I don't think he can hate them forever. . . (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha]

27 chapters

(view spoiler)[ I'm glad he talked to his brother
but I feel like Ben dropping off that info to the other lady is a ticking time bomb. I Think they are going to find out about Kara and try to get ugly Ugh. I feel dread lol (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha]

and I'm done

this one was so stinking cute!
(view spoiler)[ I'm so glad the blow up wasn't too bad and they got the funding
amazing he donated his bonus and the company matched it
and I Love that she got to go home and meet his family! SO cute! (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

I am late but finally started tonight!

[Dr. Andy]

ch 7 (view spoiler)[ I am really enjoying this so far! I like both Kara and Ben. Also adult ADHD rep!! I need this in my life. Kara's brain is so much like mine it is ridiculous. I'm really curious to see more of Kara and Ben together. Also I love that they both have average body sizes and neither are waifs or bodybuilders. (hide spoiler)]

The kitten is the cutest!!

ch 13 (view spoiler)[ I'm excited to see the marketing plan Ben and Schwartz put together for the cat cafe. I want it to work! Also Ben's kitten is my favorite. He's so adorable and the cutest!! I love how much he loves Ben. Can't wait to read more of this. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

ch 20 (view spoiler)[ Fuck Worthy and his ridiculous shit. I hope Kara takes him down. He deserves to rot in prison for the rest of his life. Suing for emotional damages!? Bitch, Kara owes you nothing. Especially after the shit you pulled. I seethe. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Ch 30 (view spoiler)[ I am so sad 😩 I want them to be together. These two are so stubborn. I hope they forgive each other. They clearly like each other a lot. Also kind of sad Ben forgave his brother so easily. You don’t have to forgive family just bc they’re family. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Finished (view spoiler)[ This was really sweet. I love that all the cats were adopted! I want to know what happened when Schwartz and Charity got to Cancun! (hide spoiler)]

A cute fun read!

Chapter 1-5: (view spoiler)[i am not an animal person tbh but i still find the little intro for cats at the start of every chapter so very adorable. Liking all the characters so far, funny that Ben is stuck with the cat for some time! I didn’t like his ma’s reaction to everything his brother and ex fiancé did (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 6-12: (view spoiler)[Ben’s kitten is such a HUGE fan of his, i loved when he let it sleep on his bed eventually. I am still cold about Ben’s brother, he really should have been more forthcoming about his feelings for Amelia. Schwartz is a good friend! (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 13-20: (view spoiler)[Worthy is NOT worthy of a dime of attention from Kara, i cant believe he had the audacity to sue her. I loved when Ben decided to hold on to the kitten until Kara finds him a home, that was so sweet. Also naming him CHAOS! Perfection (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 21-28: (view spoiler)[I didn’t necessarily agree with the reason Ben should forgive Boone and move on, i mean it kind of was a dick move on his part not telling him about his history with Amelia. I knew Ben making statements about Kara to a reporter would come back to bite him on his ass (hide spoiler)]

Finished: (view spoiler)[This was so sweet i might have gotten a little emotional towards the end with everything working out so perfectly for Kara and Ben. And the book inspired by Kara was so very sweet! No wonder she cried damn. This got me feeling all mushy inside (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Started this one tonight.

Chapters 1-9
(view spoiler)[
This is adorable so far. I love the premise of this one and I'm excited to see what they do for the Catmas promo they're coming up with.

Also, the cat illustrations on each chapter are super cute.
(hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Chapters 10-18
(view spoiler)[
I'm loving all the cat content in this book. They're all just so cute (also still loving the illustrations and descriptions at the start of the chapters).

I like that Kara is slowing turning Ben into a cat person. He adores the kitten even if he won't say it.
(hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Chapters 19-27
(view spoiler)[
I can't believe her jerk of an ex is suing her. She didn't do anything wrong!

I'm so happy seeing all these cats get adopted. It's so nice.

I'm enjoying the romance between Kara and Ben so far. They're cute together.
