This is a recent contemporary fantasy furry romance novel. It’s fairly lighthearted, fun, and good.

On the furry side, it’s the fairly typical backgroundless furry contemporary world. Technology is about what we have (cell phones and all). Background isn’t really given, but we’re somewhere in the Midwest United States. And everyone is an anthropomorphic animal of various types, without any rhyme or reason (other than fitting the character, of course).

The contemporary fantasy side is fairly typical too. Magic exists, there are witches out there who largely keep an eye on things, and most everyone else will automatically default to a more ordinary explanation given any reason to do so.

Our inciting incident is when an ordinary-but-glamorous cat accidentally hits a weak place in the boundaries between realities and lets a large number of pixies into the normal world. Coyote goth witch-in-residence Tamara repairs the breech, puts a memory charm on the unfortunate Maddie, and starts thinking about how to round up the magical pests.

Glamor-cat Maddie is unexpectedly completely resistant to the memory charm, and eager to help out. And so our unlikely duo is born, with Maddie learning about the magical world, and both trying to find and catch the pixies before their mischief-making causes too much damage—possibly to the pixies themselves.

This isn’t a big ambitious novel trying to break new ground. It doesn’t need to be. It stands on its characters and a fairly easy-going plot. There’s a few more dramatic incidents, but the book is mostly at a steady but relaxed pace, keeping everything character focused the entire time. A lot of fun, well worth a read, and the door is left open to a sequel I would be happy to get.
