Food For Poe
Blurb
When a blizzard strands Quinn
Easterly at a handsome stranger's house on Christmas Eve, she doesn't realize
her newly adopted cat, Poe, is the catalyst responsible for bringing them
together.
Breck Lansing gave up on
relationships after his wife, unable to cope with their daughter’s illness,
left him. But the pretty blonde he rescues from a snowstorm has him rethinking
his stance—especially when Quinn’s arrival coincides with a dramatic change in
Sophie’s health.
Unfortunately, that change also
attracts something only whispered about in folklore. Together, Quinn and Breck
must defeat a sinister creature intent on claiming the ultimate payment.
My Review
If you are
looking for Christmas miracles and a book that will make you feel really happy
and good, I'd highly recommend Food For Poe!
Mae Clair's novella is the type of book that makes you say, "just one more page and then I will leave it aside." But the one page becomes another one and another, till you finish the story. Fabulous…Exactly what I like to read.

Main characters-
Quinn Easterly, the pretty blonde who
adopts a cat on Christmas Eve in the middle of a snowstorm.
Breck Lansing who isn’t just good-looking,
he's movie-star gorgeous. His crisply tailored clothing hinted at refinement.
Sophie, Bret’s fourteen year old daughter, who
is bed-ridden,
Joyce, Sophie’s mother, who deserted
her when the daughter needed her more,
and, of course Poe, the cat who was no
more than a pair of gold eyes peeking from the inside of his plastic carrier.
The author, Mae Clair, created another
great read. A line that I thoroughly enjoyed and made me laugh is, “Remind me
to buy that cat some caviar.”
While half way through the story, when
I thought I knew where the plot was going, a sudden twist of the action made
everything take an unexpected, suspenseful turn.
Of course I won’t tell you what
happens. You’ll have to read the story and be as surprised as I was.
Food for Poe is a heartwarming tale
where love, magic and paranormal mystery are perfectly blended. A beautifully written book, a perfect
Christmas story for fans of romance…
Thanks so much, Carmen. I'm so glad you enjoyed Poe. I really wanted to weave my love of romance, cats and magic into a Christmas-time tale. I'm delighted it worked! Thank you for the lovely review!
