5.0 out of 5 stars A Cat's Plan, December 26, 2009

This review is from: Lace and Satin (Harlequin Presents, #61) (Mass Market Paperback)

6 years ago 23 yr-old Logan Steer met 19 yr-old Amelia Higginbottom; she went to talk to him about a friend Lauren Grant, he had split with, the girl told Melly she really loved Logan and he was breaking her heart.

It wasn't true, Lauren was sleeping with two men at the same time, and Logan didn't like that.

But the moment he met Melly he fell in love. She was everything he ever wanted in a woman, only he came on too strong and ended up in bed with her. Had his previous guest had not returned he would have made love to her.

Melly would never forgive Logan for causing her to lower her own standards.

Now Logan is in partnership with the company Melly works for, and she has to not only work with him, but for him.

Logan has never forgotten Melly, or his feelings for her, but he had an affair with a woman called Vanessa, when she ended up pregnant he married her.

They had a little girl Dee(Alexandra), only she wasn't Logan's child, he found out when she needed a kidney and tests were done to see if he was a match, it proved he wasn't related to her at all. But Logan loves Dee and he would give anything to make her better.

Because they were going to France, and they would be gone for 6 weeks, Melly had to find someone to take her cat Marmalade. Logan volunteered Dee to be the pet sitter.

So Marmalade took over the romance, he not only loved little Dee, but he got Dee's cat Tabitha with kittens: after Marmalade vanquished Vanessa he brought Dee, Logan and Melly together.

This is a sweet story, I am always a sucker for books with kids in them, and little Dee was such a darling, although as in most books she only shows up when the story has no choice but to bring her back into the book.

From the back of the book: 'An adult affair. As a student, Logan Steer had been wildly and romantically attractive to female population...Now he was devastating! Melly knew Logan and his effect on women all too well, so she was determined to keep their business relationship just that-strictly business.

What she didn't know was that her cat, Marmalade, had an altogether different view of things, and had made plans accordingly...!
