TITLE:  THE CAT LADY’S SECRET

AUTHOR:  Linda W. Yezak

DATE:  2014

PUBLISHER:  Harbourlight Books, a division of Pelican Ventures, LLC

STARS:  ****

Emily Taylor loves to help people, loves to ease their burdens and make their dreams come true. But when a conman ruins her reputation, she discovers that helping others is safer and easier from behind the scenes.

When one of Emily’s gifts captures the attention of an avid journalist, her identity as the town’s anonymous benefactor—and her renewed relationship with her high school sweetheart—are threatened.

As her private life begins to unravel, she realizes the one hope for regaining control lies behind prison walls.


The Cat Lady’s Secret is a fun read with intriguing characters. I love eccentric Millie and generous but secretive Emily. The quiet but determined vet, Scott, is a true hero, and I found myself cheering him on.

Even though the story is lighthearted, it has depths that I appreciate. Emily’s secrets create tension, as do the unsettling fires in the small, tight-knit town.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and it earns four and a half stars.

    I’ve always loved music, even before the writing bug hit. Grace notes are little extras, not the actual melody. Just something that adds to the feel of the music. My desire for this blog is to encourage and bless readers, to share a little grace.
