REVIEW: A LOVE CATASTROPHE by Helena Hunting is a contemporary, adult, stand alone, romance story line focusing on ‘Kitty Whisperer’ Kitty Hart, and thirty year old NHL team analyst Miles Thorn.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kitty and Miles) A LOVE CATASTROPHE follows the building relationship between ‘Kitty Whisperer’ Kitty Hart, and thirty year old NHL team analyst Miles Thorn. Miles Thorn’s mother is struggling with dementia, and Miles suspects she will soon be going into a home but his mother’s cat Prince Francis needs looking after, and Miles hires social media phenom ‘Kitty Whisperer’ to cat-sit PF while his mother is away. Miles doesn’t do cats, is always on the road with the team, but something about Kitty pulls at our hero’s heart. Kitty Hart’s business of cat-sitting is a booming success but she never anticipated to fall for one of the clients. With both Miles and Kitty struggling with demons from the past, our couple find empathy and love together as them embark on a relationship brought together by a naked cat. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Miles and Kitty, and the potential fall-out as Kitty’s business takes a hit when a viral video doesn’t show our heroine in a very good light.

The relationship between Kitty and Miles begins as a business arrangement. Miles struggles with the direction of his mother’s life, living with the guilt of a loss, years before. His mother and father are no longer together, leaving Miles to battle between head and heart with his mother’s mental downward spiral. Kitty Hart knows the pain of loss, and finds herself wondering why her mother has yet to move on but as Kitty’s business continues to explode, an aha moment finds Kitty wondering where everything went wrong. Meeting Mr. Grumpypants Miles Thorn gives Kitty a hope for the future, a future that may be compromised when Miles life is on the line. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters are colorful and energetic. We are introduced to Kitty’s sister Hattie, and their mother Lucile Hart, as well as Kitty’s best friend Kat; Mile’s mother; and his friends/ members of the team Josh, Austin, and Parker O’Toole.

A LOVE CATASTROPHE is a meet-cute story, a romantic comedy with some series undertones including dementia and death, guilt and regret. The premise is heart warming and captivating; the romance is seductive; the characters are dynamic and determined.
