Mr. Snuggles' Secret Mission

A Sweet Small Town Romance

By: Jo Chandler

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

He's a twenty-pound matchmaking mastermind. They're two lonely hearts who need a nudge. And in Collins Ridge, even the cats believe in second chances.

Meet Mr. Snuggles, the self-appointed matchmaker of Collins Ridge and the real owner of the Well-Thumbed bookstore. While his human, Piper, spends her days organizing shelves and her nights alone with her books, Mr. Snuggles knows she's meant for more than a life of quiet solitude. When former Special Forces operative Ace Kealoha moves in next door, haunted by the teammate he couldn't save, Mr. Snuggles recognizes two wounded souls who need each other.
Operation: Love Next Door is officially underway.
Armed with strategic fur deployment, perfectly timed thunderstorm interventions, and an uncanny ability to be exactly where he's needed when he's needed, Mr. Snuggles sets out to bring together the woman who keeps tubes of squeeze-fish in her pockets and the battle-scarred warrior who's forgotten how to hope. Through late-night bookstore conversations and shared moments of vulnerability, Piper and Ace begin to discover that healing doesn't have to happen alone—and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let someone in.
But will Mr. Snuggles' feline wisdom be enough to convince two people who've given up on themselves that they deserve a second chance at happiness?

A heartwarming, feel-good romance told from the perspective of an irresistible orange cat who takes his matchmaking duties very seriously. Perfect for readers who believe in the healing power of love, the magic of small-town community, and the surprising wisdom of a twenty-pound feline with a mission.
Mr. Snuggles' Secret Mission is a companion novella to The Lumberjack Next Door and can be enjoyed on its own or as the purrfect addition to the Collins Ridge Lumberjacks series.
