Summary
 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD NOMINEE • A woman who runs a cat rescue in 1920s Montréal turns to a grouchy but charming magician to help save her shelter in this heartwarming cozy fantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of the Emily Wilde series.

“Absolutely magnificent! Full of cats and magic, this is the kind of book you want to instantly reread. I loved every character, every cat, and every moment with all my heart!”—Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

Agnes Aubert leads a meticulously organized life, and she likes it that way. As the proudly type-A manager of a cat rescue charity, she has devoted her life to finding forever homes for stray cats.

Now it’s the shelter that needs a new home. And the only landlord who will rent a space to a cat rescue is a mysterious man called Havelock—who also happens to be the world’s most infamous magician, running an illegal magic shop out of his basement. Havelock is cantankerous and eccentric, but not not handsome, and no, Agnes absolutely does not feel anything but disdain for him. After all, rumors swirl about his shadowy past—including whispers that his dark magic once almost brought about the apocalypse.

Then one day a glamorous magician comes looking for Havelock, putting the magic shop—and the cat shelter—in jeopardy. To save the shelter, Agnes will have to team up with the magician who nearly ended the world . . . and may now be trying to steal her heart.

Havelock is everything Agnes thinks she doesn’t need in her life: chaos, mischief, and a little too much adventure. But as she gets to know him, she discovers that he’s more than the dark magician of legend, and that she may be ready for a little intrigue—and romance—in her life. After all, second chances aren’t just for rescue cats. . . . Fantasy Historical

The book and story were great but the performer was sadly too robotic for me. it was missing rythmes and felt a bit at times like an IA voice.

A good story but sadly did not like the performer

This was a nice read despite the few flaws so that's why I gave it a 3.
Performance : No this not the best reading I've had for a book. It's a bit flat. But I've had worst and I like the fact that it was read by someone who (i think) speaks French with the book being based in Quebec.
Story : I loooooved the idea! I like the characters, especially how the two sisters interacted. I liked the magic system. I liked the cats. But I feel like the story sticks to something a bit simplistic and doesn't reach it's full potential! And, sadly, the romance fell very flat... You expect so it's not a surprise but it just appears at some point. The gradual change of feelings isn't very well executed. The feelings the MC has for their deceased husband better written then the feeling she has for Havelock which just aren't expressed internally beyond "hey that guy looks nice".

So it was a nice read but I wish it went all the way in what it wants to do.

Enjoyable little book
