Snowball

Snowball, that lovable bundle of feline fluff readers first met as a kitten in Snowball's Christmas, is all grown up. And now that she has her forever home at a cozy B&B, she's determined to orchestrate a forever love match, just in time for the holidays . . . Snowball takes her job as the "official kitty" at the Victorian B&B Inn, Weber Haus, very seriously. Greeting guests and keeping tabs on them is a full-time feline job, after all. However, being nice to Daniel Aarons is not on her to-do list. The handsome construction manager almost messed up her forever family, and she isn't about to forgive him anytime soon . . . But then someone new arrives at Weber Haus. Her name is Sophie Heidt-and she's the B&B's new manager. When Snowball goes missing on Sophie's first day, Daniel, in charge of the new hotel wing, comes to her rescue by getting the cat to do what she does best: attack him. It doesn't take long for Snowball's animal instincts to reveal that Daniel and Sophie are meant to be together. Unfortunately, Daniel keeps making a mess of things. It's going to take some special insight and holiday cheer to bring them together. But if anyone can do it, Snowball can-even if she has to tolerate turtle doves, French hens, calling birds, and other fur-raising human traditions . . .

Cats and Christmas are a heartwarming combination in Kristen McKanagh's series starring Snowball, the matchmaking kitty who brings unlikely couples together in stories "saturated with heart and humor" (Booklist starred review). Perfect for readers of Melinda Metz, Sandi Ward, it's a sweet treat for fans of holiday-themed novels and cat fiction. Snowball, the fluffy furball who found her forever home at a cozy Victorian inn, has her paws full this Christmas bringing two stubborn hearts together. Good thing no mission is too big for this kitty cupid . . . Most cats have nine lives, but Snowball is one of the very few with two jobs. Officially, she's the Weber Haus inn's greeter. Unofficially, she's the town matchmaker. Her track record is the cat's pajamas-until she meets her owner's grinchy brother, Peter Diemer. Peter hopes to move the family bookstore to a busy location downtown-but someone else has outbid him for the last storefront. Christmas is the ideal season for Lara Wolfe to fulfill her dream of expanding her home business into a real shop. Too bad someone is posting negative comments on the town forum. What kind of Grinch objects to a toy store? Snowball is sure these two are a perfect match. They already have so much in common-books are a kind of toy, right? Now all they need to add to the mix is love, and Snowball has just the shenanigans up her furry sleeve to deliver a sweet romance in time to make the season merry and bright . . .

A fun and heartwarming addition to the series that's "the perfect Christmas treat" (Booklist), set in a cozy Victorian inn and starring that adorable matchmaking cat, Snowball-for fans of Melinda Metz and Sandi Ward. Jocelyn Becker would do anything for her twin sister. Unfortunately, "anything" this time means taking Ilse's place as host of tv's Home & Hearth and filming five Christmas-themed episodes at the Victorian inn and shops of Weber Haus. Somehow, Jocelyn will have to convince the world-and her co-host, Ben-that she is Ilse, who can craft, cook, bake, sing, and skate. Jocelyn, however, cannot. Snowball, the inn's official greeter, is also having double trouble. The show has its own feline star, a Snowball-lookalike named Angel who's more of a devil in disguise. Meanwhile, Snowball has noticed enough sparks between Ben and Jocelyn to light up a Christmas tree. But thanks to Jocelyn's deception and Angel's antics, this is going to be Snowball's most challenging match yet. Still, the holidays are made for mistletoe kisses, crackling fires, cozy evenings, and of course, sweet Snowball shenanigans . . .
