The Tiger's Tale: A moving story about second chances, and romance with a touch of magic! - Paperback

by Brooke Skie (Author)

Can be read as a standalone or part of the series.

For Kat Morrison, life is a delicate balancing act. And she's terrified of dropping a single piece.

Between managing her web design clients, guiding her teenage daughter, and caring for her mother, Rose, Kat has become the steady hand that holds everyone else together. She doesn't have time for herself, and she certainly doesn't have time for Ben Walsh, the quiet, thoughtful parks manager who always seems to be there when the edges of her world start to fray.
Kat tells herself she's doing fine. She finds comfort in the rhythm of small-town life and in Rose's favorite stories-enchanting tales of a jungle tiger that have always been her mother's way of making sense of the world.

But as Rose's memory begins to fade, the stories are becoming more than just fairy tales; they're a lifeline. And as the weight of caregiving grows heavier, Kat finds her carefully maintained defenses slipping.

Ben isn't trying to rescue her; he's simply offering to stand beside her. Whether it's fixing a broken porch step or listening to the same story for the hundredth time, his quiet reliability feels dangerous to a woman who is used to doing it all alone.
In a town of winding streets, opinionated bookshop cats, and neighbors who look out for one another, Kat must learn the hardest lesson of all: that letting someone help isn't a sign of weakness. It's the only way to let love in.

Perfect for fans of THE BOOKSHOP ON THE CORNER and THE STORY OF ARTHUR TRULUV. A gentle, moving story about family, memory, and finding the courage to lean on someone else.
