Finding Mr. Purrfect - by Codi Gary (Paperback)

About the Book

"After years of relationships gone wrong, Charity Simmons has decided to take a hiatus from dating and concentrate on her job for the Meow and Furever Cat Cafâe and the new love of her life--Robin Hood, a brown tabby who won't stop stealing treats. Living with Kara, her best friend and business partner, is easy except that Kara's boyfriend keeps bringing his annoyingly funny and nerdy-hot best friend around. Despite his nice-guy persona, Will Schwartz is a womanizing charmer, and Charity notices because that's just her type. She may have sworn off dates but she's willing to have fun with Schwartz for a good reason... With her parents' constant matchmaking attempts wearing her down, Charity makes a pact to fake date until she or Schwartz finds the real deal. But it will be next to impossible to convince these two commitment-phobes that what they have isn't make believe but the one-of-a-kind love everyone is looking for."--

Book Synopsis

Full of cats, coffee, and charm, this laugh-out-loud, fake-dating romance between a brilliant baker and a charismatic commitment-phobe is the perfect treat for fans of Lyssa Kay Adams and Jasmine Guillory.

Charity Simmons may have great taste in friends, felines, and fruit tarts, but if there's one thing the baker and co-owner of Meow and Furever Cat Café knows, it's that she has horrible taste in men. Case in point: Will Schwartz. He may be the best friend of her best friend's boyfriend, but after their one night together, Charity is positive Will's nothing but a womanizing charmer--despite his nice-guy persona and adorable, crooked smile. So why then did she pick him to pretend date to get her parents off her back about being single?

Will Schwartz may give relationships a hard pass, but he's not about to say no to fake dating Charity. She's brilliant, hilarious, and best of all, she'll put an end to his mother's interrogations about his love life. And maybe, after all this time giving him the cold shoulder, Charity will finally warm up to him.

But it's not long before Will and Charity realize they got much more than they bargained for--and they're freaking out. What if what they have isn't make-believe, but the real, forever kind of love?
