Catnip, Claws, and Chaos: A Grumpy Sunshine Romance

Emma Jane

romantic comedy(70)

A chaotic pizza girl accidentally lands a job — and her heart — with her emotionally-guarded hot vet boss.

Description

Emily Baker can't seem to keep a job, a home, or a goldfish alive. Dr. Logan Price is a smoking-hot vet with enough emotional baggage to fill an entire nation.When Emily crashes her pizza delivery scooter trying to avoid hitting a stray cat, she finds herself with three new problems. She's now the reluctant owner of said cat, who seems determined to destroy what little remains of her life. Her new job at Price Veterinary Services might finally be her chance at stability, if she can just avoid antagonizing her impossibly handsome but frustratingly cold boss. Dr. Sexy should have no business making her lady parts tingle, but every time he rolls up his sleeves, Emily forgets how to form basic sentences.But as their paths tangle in unexpected ways, it's becoming painfully obvious that their story could end with Emily in the emergency room, Logan in therapy, or both of them tangled in bedsheets… depending on which disaster strikes first.Some love stories come with roses and chocolates. This one comes with fangs, claws, and a pregnancy test fished out of a toilet.
