About this ebook

My cat talks, has magical powers, and just got me tangled in a murder investigation.

My name is Gracie Springs, and while I’m just your average barista, my cat insists I’m something more—specifically, his familiar. I didn’t believe him until he opened his mouth, told me his real name was Merlin the Magical Fluff, and warned me that keeping his secret was now my full-time job.

Apparently, Merlin is a full-blown witch trapped in feline form. He’s bossy, brilliant, and has no problem dragging me into magical messes I never asked for. Now I’m stuck covering for his antics, dodging spells gone wrong, and trying not to raise suspicions at the small-town coffee shop where I work.

But when my boss turns up dead and all eyes land on me, Merlin and I have to team up to clear my name. That is, if he doesn’t get me arrested first.

This is a clean, funny paranormal cozy mystery featuring a sarcastic cat, a very confused barista, and a murder that’s heating up faster than the espresso machine.

Perfect for fans of magical pet mysteries, reluctant familiars, and small-town whodunits with charm, mischief, and a touch of magical mayhem.

The sheer over-the-top silliness of this book tickles my fancy. If you like silliness, snark, and shenanigans with your paranormal happenings, then it’s probably going to tickle yours as well. As someone who’s been owned by a cat before, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to learn most of this was true. Now that we’ve started to get to know Gracie and Merlin, I can’t wait to learn even more about them. I received a complimentary copy of this book through Booksprout.

Really enjoy the animal aspect of any good fantasy book. Witty and Charming story with entertaining characters to follow along on an unexpected adventure. Creative and fun locations and interesting banter and interaction between the characters. There are some unexpected twists. Good read. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a very interesting story. Author does an excellent job of blending the mystery and introducing the new series. It's so captivating that I didn't want it to end and can't wait to read what comes next. Gracie is special and gracious. Merlin is of course a little arrogant but he has a loving heart and I think he made a great choice on who would accompany him on this magical adventure. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
