Please, note this story is a tiny bit steamy and a little bit sweary. 

If you read A Little Merry Christmas and wished it had more cats ... I've got you.

He’s selling. She’s not buying. Neither is the cat.

Nina Harmon doesn’t do rescue missions anymore. She left her family’s money back on Long Island along with the shame of not saving her father from his own addiction. The Hamilton animal shelter’s Twelve Days of Dogmas is her opportunity to stop running. There, she decides who gets a second chance, and she’s not handing hers out to charming men with good hair.

Former ad exec Tom Smith built a career on charisma and a killer pitch, until the mentor he emulated unceremoniously fires him. To make matters worse, his festive family Christmas is canceled this year. Unmoored and adrift, Tom must confront why the success that came so naturally is suddenly so hollow.

Thrown together for the good of Esmeralda, the shelter’s most opinionated cat, Nina knows men like Tom make promises easily. And for the first time, Tom may have met a woman who refuses to buy what he’s selling. But he keeps showing up, and Nina finds it more and more difficult to write off a man whose pitch appears genuine.

With a little marshmallow world magic, a cranky cat, and a touch of heat beneath the holiday lights, Shiny & Bright is a cozy reminder that love finds you when you finally step out of the shadows.

Shiny & Bright is available in ebook and paperback via Ingram Spark, OverDrive, Hoopla, and Gardners, in addition to all major e-retailers.
