When the last cat dies, Jane will be rich. Until then… she must keep thirty of them alive.

Jane never expected her quiet position as companion to a wealthy cat-loving widow to end in chaos. But when her employer passes away, Jane discovers she will inherit a fortune — provided she cares for every last feline until nature takes its course.

Ten years later her inheritance has grown exponentially and suddenly, half the county develops an interest in her future. Suitors begin circling. Her long-absent fiancé returns. And the local baron suddenly finds reasons to call.

While Jane struggles to determine whether she wants security, passion, or something entirely unexpected, her household descends into delicious chaos. Her maid Susie embarks on a scandalous affair with the very baron meant to court Jane — an affair that burns far hotter than either of them intended. While the baron’s sister harbors secret feelings of her own.

And a resentful butler takes matters into his own hands — and one unfortunate cat disappears.

As rivalries flare, desires ignite, and loyalties shift, Jane must decide what she truly wants — until every last cat is accounted for.
