FOOD FOR POE
Cats, Christmas, and Romance
by
Mae Clair
It’s hard to believe that Christmas
is looming just around the corner. I have no complaints though, because
Christmas is my favorite holiday. Not only do I enjoy December 25th
and Christmas Eve, but I love the entire month of December. It’s like one long
holiday with all the merriment, festivities, and spirit of goodwill that leads
up to that very special day. I’m a Christmas sap.
So it stands to reason I’d
eventually get around to writing a Christmas story.
Those who know me also know there
are two things (other than writing) I’m passionate about: folklore and cats.
When it came time to dream up a Christmas story, I decided to weave both elements
into the tale. The result is FOOD FOR POE, a short Christmas novella that is
also a tale of sweet romance, twined with the paranormal, and even a wee
smidgen of horror (just a smidge, I promise!).
Take a look:
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.

clever black cat, Christmas magic and paranormal trouble

Hi, Carmen! Thanks so much for helping me spread the news about Poe. I would have popped in early but I got hit with a really bad cold and have spent most of the day in bed. Surfacing now and slowly moving about, LOL. At least this will be over before the holidays (I hope). Merry Christmas!
