A Fellowship of Curses & Cats
A Fellowship of Curses & Cats is the fourth book in J. Penner's cozy Adenashire series. When a spell goes wrong, it brings more than magic into elf Theo Brylar's life: suddenly cats of every shape and size are drawn to him like catnip, much to the amusement of Faylin the forest lynx, technically his own house cat. When someone floats the idea of opening a cat café next to Arleta's bakery, Theo finds himself juggling a lot more than feline antics.
Between his mother's unannounced arrival and the lingering grief of his brother's death, Theo's family history surfaces at the worst possible moment. With Arleta pregnant and facing fears of her own, the two of them have to work through old wounds and new responsibilities together. Unlike earlier Adenashire books built around a central romance, this entry leans further into found-family cozy fantasy, following established characters through grief, parenthood, and the everyday chaos of small-town life.
An elf whose life is upended when a spell gone wrong draws every cat in town to him; grappling with grief over his brother's death and his mother's return.
Theo's partner, a baker facing pregnancy and her own fears as the two navigate opening a cat café.
A forest lynx who has become Theo's house cat.
