Most of my favorite reading nights start the same way: my favorite reading chair, a mug within reach, a romance novel in my hands—and at least one cat deciding that my lap is now their personal property. Before I’ve even hit chapter two, there’s purring, snoring, and fur in the pages. And somehow, the story … Continue reading Why Pets Make Romances Cozier (And Smarter)
