Willa Liu is an expert at keeping things simple.
Her life is ordered, her books are alphabetized, and her relationship with the effortlessly cool Iris Shaw is strictly casual. A perfect system designed to protect her from messy feelings.
The system, however, did not account for Bartolomew.
When Willa's demonic cat, a creature who considers affection a personal insult, melts into a purring puddle for Iris, it shatters Willa's carefully constructed walls, leaving her with a dreadful realization: in a relationship with no strings attached, she might be the one who is hopelessly tangled.
