She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.

Meet Freya Beauregard; a 24-year-old from a wealthy and well-known family and a hopeless romantic with failed relationships in the past, but she knows the one constant in her life- cats. She owns a cat café called Mocha Whiskers at the Upper East Side of New York, where the main attractions are exotic and common cats alike, sharing her love of felines with other animal lovers like her. And then there's Nathaniel 'Nathan' Coleman; goodlooking, owns a successful company at 27, a man many women chase after and pretty much also comes from a wealthy and well-known family too, but there's a stark difference- he hates animals, especially felines. That, he can't get over. But when his friend tricks him into ending up at Freya's cat café instead of the hottest nightclub in town, things heat up for the worst. First things first: Freya doesn't trust people who hate cats. Secondly: Nathan doesn't like how ironically comparable the crazy café owner can be to a dog, preferably a female one. Unfortunately, there's an attraction that neither can resist- like catnip to cats. A cat's reaction is unpredictable upon its first exposure to catnip; whether there will be a mellow calmness or an aggression with no cause at all. One thing's for sure is that it's irresistible, and neither Freya nor Nathan would have an idea of their reaction...
