If you enjoyed Talk to the Paw, you are going to love Mac’s next adventure. In this book, Mac is up to his matchmaking again. This time, Mac sets his goal on Jamie’s cousin Briony.

What was supposed to be the happiest day of her life turned out to be Briony’s worst. She had a panic attack walking down the aisle on her wedding day. Turns out her body knew Caleb wasn’t the right man for her even though her brain said he was perfect. Briony left town as quick as she could, heading for Los Angeles to Jamie’s house, to lick her wounds and care of MacGyver “Mac” the cat and Diogee the dog, while Jamie and David went on their honeymoon. Mischievous Mac, the matchmaking cat, can tell from the start that Briony is sad. Mac sets out to find her a mate. After all, it worked for his people and some of the residents of Storybook Court. This time Mac heads to The Gardens, a senior community that is near Storybook Court. Along the way, Mac finds mates for more than just Briony and Nate, the owner of The Gardens, he also helps some other residents find love.

I really liked this book. There is more to the story than just Mac’s match making, there is also a mystery to be solved. I read Talk to the Paw a while back and fell in love with Mac. When I saw there was a new book coming out, I couldn’t wait to find out what Mac would be up to next. Though this book can be read as a stand-alone, I would recommend reading Talk to the Paw first so you can get to know Mac’s story. I blew through this book quick as it was so entertaining. This book is perfect for any cat lover or someone who enjoys a sweet women’s fiction story.

Mac is a matchmaking cat. No doubt about it. He uses witty kitty antics to help his human find love, and it works! Mac however does not stop there. While runaway bride Briony is recovering from her almost wedding, Jamie (Mac's human) offers her the chance to cat sit. When Briony accepts, she is tossed into another one of Mac's matchmaking schemes.
The Secret Life of Mac is a heartwarming tale full of kitty antics and laughs along the way. A great read for a chilly winter day or on a fall road trip!
