'What happens when you expect an itty-bitty kitty . . . but get a lion instead?

'It’s kitten delivery day, but—SURPRISE. Congratulations on your new LION! We know you ordered a kitten, but we ran out of those. Fortunately, the big cat comes with instructions—like, try very hard NOT to look like a zebra. Or a gazelle. And give your lion PLENTY of space to play. But soon the feathers and fur start flying and everything’s in chaos. Is there any way a lion could actually be a child’s purr-fect pet?'  (Publication summary)

'There’s a pleasant surprise waiting for Laney Curtis—her mother is pregnant. But then Laney’s world is suddenly turned inside out when she is told that her mother has breast cancer.

'What’s more, her mother’s totally unexpected reaction to the devastating news stuns everyone—especially Laney.

'During this difficult time, Laney also becomes involved in a clever plan to win the heart of the adorable but unobtainable Andy Carter. Her frustration and keen sense of humour surface as she embarks on this seemingly impossible challenge.'
