The only thing worse than having a hot neighbor you’re too intimidated to talk to is accidentally hitting his cat with your car. Felix Lane was perfectly content to spend the rest of his days with Sunny, his canary life companion, in their quiet little corner of the suburbs. But then Kirk Shoo with his unusual eyes moved in across the street, and Felix’s carefully constructed life is starting to unravel. When your every bad-boy fantasy lingers at the mailbox, stands too close and smells too damn good, what’s an under-appreciated administrative assistant to do? Besides sneak out the backdoor to go to work? But when Kirk’s cat runs out in front of Felix on his way home, he has no choice but to face the music and his dream man. Unless ... What starts as a tragic accident turns into something far more bizarre. And when Felix’s backyard begins to look like a pet cemetery, he has no choice but to come clean. That is, if he can manage to find his sexy neighbor at all.

Kirk grinned and bent down to kiss him. A minute later a glass of a cool white wine appeared before his eyes. “What do you want to ask?” Kirk sat next to him on the sofa.


What did he want to know? “Can you, just to make sure, turn into a cat?”


“Of course.” Kirk stood and shoved the shorts down.


“Wait!” Felix was staring at Kirk’s formidable ass, unable to look away.


Kirk looked over his shoulder and winked. “If you wanted me naked you could’ve said so.”
