After Seb responds to Bea's posting for a fake fiancé, they make a deal: pretend to be madly in love for the sake of her cats and his ridiculously high rent. But if they so much as kiss, Bea will give up her favorite fur baby and Seb will sell his beloved Canon.A foolproof plan . . . until something grows between these fools that looks a lot like love.

The Trouble with Tabbies

"I can count on one hand the number of authors who provide a compelling storyline as well underlying themes that cause me to reevaluate myself and the society we live in. For example, Suzanne Collins with The Hunger Games Trilogy, Veronica Roth with the Divergent Trilogy, and now A.G.
