Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter (Exclusive OwlCrate Edition)

In 1920s Montréal, a woman turns to a grouchy but charming magician to help save her cat rescue in Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter, a heartwarming cozy fantasy from bestselling author Heather Fawcett.

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

But after she is forced to move the cat shelter, Agnes learns that her new landlord is using her charity as a front for an internationally renowned and thoroughly disreputable magic shop. Owned by the disorganized—not to mention self-absorbed, irritating, but also decidedly handsome—Havelock Renard, magician and rumored failed Dark Lord, the shop draws magical clientele from around the world, partly due to the quality of his illicit goods as well as their curiosity about his shadowy past. Agnes's charity offers the perfect cover for illegal magics.

Agnes couldn’t care less about the shop—magical intrigue or not, there are cats to be rescued. But when an enemy from Havelock’s past surfaces, the magic shop—and more importantly, the cat shelter—are suddenly in jeopardy. To save the shelter, will Agnes have to set aside her social conscience and protect the man who once tried to bring about the apocalypse—and is now trying to steal her heart?
