Where magic becomes reality. Rosalie Squire needs a place to raise her teenage stepbrother, Eric, away from civilized towns. She’s a cougar, he’s a snow leopard and a handful. She and her brother inherit a mansion that’s been abandoned for years. Inheritances from their parents and their dad’s cousin, the income from writing her popular spell caster novels, and sales from Eric’s fantasy artwork, when she can get him to focus on it, gives them the financial backing to manage the estate. Wild Ridge Mansion is near Yuma Town, is truly worthy of being called a haunted house, and it’s nearly Halloween! Cougar shifter Kolby Jones is busy working on his bosses’ horse ranch as a ranch hand near Yuma Town, when he swears he sees a snow leopard off in the distance. He knew he’d partied too much with the other ranch hands the night before in celebration of delivering a foal that day. He had too much work to do to chase phantoms of his imagination. But when he learns someone new has taken over the forsaken Wild Ridge Mansion just down the road from the Havertons’ ranch, he soon discovers a whole new world of mystery, magic, and mayhem.

This work has three major sub-goals: first, to give a history of cats in general from earliest recorded times to the present. Second, to cover 26 different cats (or cat species) in alphabetical order, so the reader has a representative feline for each of the alphabet's 26 letters. Third, to accomplish these ends through poetry. The poetic mode was chosen to give reader a little different slant on each covered cat's special qualities and temperament. An additional prose portion gives the reader a straightforward description of each cat's natural territory and a brief coverage of its special talents and challenges. The overall goal was to make learning about cats both fun and educational and make us more fully appreciate our feline friends.
