A warm-hearted, fun filled rom-com novella laden with love, music…and cats.

When his ringing doorbell wakes Devlin from a post birthday party hangover, he finds a beautiful singing telegram dressed as a kitten on the other side, who leaves him intrigued and confused in equal measures. His mysterious songstress has the voice of an angel and the devil’s own temper to match.

Katherine ‘Kat’ Grant has one dream, and that’s singing. To achieve it, she needs admission to the exclusive Perdies College of Music. Kat’s adolescent years were difficult, being dependant on the charity of others left her with a fierce independent streak and a loathing of special treatment. She’ll succeed on her own merits without anyone’s help, especially the cheeky, alluring Devlin who seems to have squeezed himself into every aspect of her life.

Devlin knows he has the power to make all of Kat’s dreams come true. But wielding that power means he could lose her forever.

Can a charismatic cat loving hero and his sassy stubborn singer find their own love song?

Find out, in Purr-fect Pitch.

An insistent, continuous, ringing dragged Dev from a brain-dead sleep. Stifling a groan, he reached across and thumped the alarm clock. What? It wasn’t the alarm clock. What was it then? Shaking the groggy confusion, he dragged himself out of bed. The cacophony was someone leaning on the doorbell.

Dev barrelled down the stairs, almost succumbing to a broken neck when an impatient Siamese wound herself between his feet.

“Hang on, Carmen. I’ll feed you in a sec.”

Damn, his head was throbbing. Who the hell had come up with the idea of having a massive party the night before his birthday, therefore consigning the actual day of his birth to hangover territory?

Oh, yeah…that would be his brothers. The moment he laid eyes on them again, they were toast.

Dev yanked open the front door. Bright sunlight seared his retinas with stunning accuracy, shocking his brain into full consciousness. Haloed within the blinding light was a kitten. Or more accurately, a woman dressed as a kitten, with a black leotard clinging to killer curves, furry ears pinned to light blond curls and whiskers drawn on porcelain pale cheeks.

To add to the surreal image, she began to sing.

    1. Hi Bea. Totally spontaneous. To the point where, in one of my mystery thriller books, when I was half way through writing it, a test reader said they couldn't wait to see 'who did it' and I said 'neither can I' My characters get in my head and tell me what to write, and I just put it down on paper.

    1. Thank you Jeanna. Music is so important to the story (as well as the cat) and my publisher and I wanted the cover to reflect that. Luckily my publisher uses a wonderful cover artist.
