When She Purrs
by Ruby Dixon
Characters:
Kim is genuinely stupid. From the first chapter it is established that she has no sense so I decided I would not take this book seriously. She got better though and is genuinely just a nice person who is traumatized. Nassakth is a cat man ex-gladiator with no clue how to charm a human. Dead animals and jizz? Definitely not. He is pushy but patient and intent on having Kim. He is also a terrible communicator and very tight lipped which was very annoying.
Plot:
This plot was silly and baffling from the very beginning. Wanting a bounty hunter to kidnap a man to be her husband and hope it all works out... Girl what? This however has my favorite parts of Ruby Dixon's writing by having fun interactions and is improved by the lack of insta-love for both characters. And after that all their problems plot-wise are caused by Kim's original dumb decisions or Nassakth inability to communicate reasonably. And then the plot kicked in foreal and I found myself actually caring about the characters and their past and their future and I was surprised how
much they grew on me.
Secret Sauce:
As nuts as this story was, I really enjoyed Kim and Nassakth together. Their relationship had ups and downs but they were able to really talk and connect to each other. It was sweet.
Rating: I give this book a 4/5
