Description：

Lola Vane's boyfriend threw out her cat.

The "little sister" with convenient asthma whose hand got scratched was not, in fact, anyone's little sister.

The cat — Mung Bean, a dignified Ragdoll she'd raised for years — was found in a rainstorm by the last person she expected: Kai Sinclair, her childhood "big brother," now running a veterinary clinic in the same neighborhood.

Kai, who'd told her at age eight to stop calling him her brother.

Kai, whose restaurant turned out to be the same restaurant she went to four times a week.

Kai, who apparently already knew where she worked.

Mung Bean has excellent judgment. He's had it from the beginning.

Lola just took a little longer to catch up.

Funny, sweet, and warm from the first line — a story about finally understanding that the person who's always been there was always the right one.
