In a total change of mood from last week’s Wild Flowers of Berlin, this week I have a snippet for you from Belling the Kat, a light-hearted shifter story from a new mini-collection of a few of my super-quick f/f reads that’s out today from JMS Books:
“You’re doing it again, Kat.” A little frown crinkled Belle’s high, dark forehead and her lush lips twisted in a sympathetic grimace.
I twisted around from where I’d been sitting on the counter in the Ladies, swinging my legs, and peered in the mirror. Yep, Belle was right. It was happening again. I mouthed a couple of curses at my not-quite-as-pale-as-usual reflection, and set to with the breathing exercises.

Belling the Kat and Other Stories

Office worker Kat didn’t think the statuesque Belle was her type—until she saw her friend rocking a slinky satin bridesmaid’s dress. Now Kat can’t get the gorgeous image out of her head, but dare she risk losing Belle’s friendship by trying for something more?
To add to her woes, ever since a close encounter of the feline kind, Kat’s had an embarrassing little problem that keeps recurring. Surely someone as beautiful as Belle won’t fall for a woman who occasionally sprouts whiskers—and a tail!
This mini-collection also includes three more super-quick reads featuring women loving women: contemporary romance Little Bit of Ivory; Japanese fairy tale Ice Maiden; and the haunting Dance With Me.
These super-quick reads have been previously published but are now appearing together for the first time.
Intriguing exchange…
Poor Kat! This could be embarrassing…
Quite the teaser! Now I want to see how Kat proceeds! Well done.
I hope no one else comes in.
Interesting predicament. Bells seems to be taking it in stride, though! 💖
This blurb started so intriguingly, only to devolve into giggles… Now I HAVE to read this!
I love the premise of this story! And this little snippet is intriguing!
