Cat Snips
A short story collection by Cat Johnson

Black Cat
Lar has existed as a cat for a thousand years, with all the discomforts and indignities that go along with it. But when he’s adopted by Belinda and wakes up no longer a cat, but as a man and in her bed, can his curse finally be at an end? For more about the characters of Grace and Donna from Black Cat, look for Just Desserts by Cat Johnson.

Friends with Benefits
Meg thinks she’s getting the best of both worlds when she and her friend Jeff decide to start having sex with no strings attached, until Meg suddenly finds that, strings or not, she’s become attached to Jeff. The question is, does Jeff feel the same, or is there a new woman in his life?

Fireworks
The last thing Brad wants to do is attend leadership school over the 4th of July holiday. How could the Army think it was a good idea to schedule training in Georgia in July? When his roommate Joe suggests they go see the fireworks and they run into Mary Jo, Joe’s first love there, Brad soon realizes things are only going to get a whole lot hotter. Especially once he discovers that Joe likes to share.

The Soldier and the Siren
After having his heart torn out by a Dear John letter while deployed, David returns home without much hope of things getting better. Then he heard her voice and his whole world changed.

The Rookie (a Studs in Spurs series deleted scene)

This 2,500 word deleted scene from Bucked (Studs in Spurs, Book 2) features Mustang, Chase and one lucky woman who gets to know them better. It’s not a complete story, nor is it a happily-ever-after romance, but it is a smoking hot threesome scene fans of the series, and readers of Bucked will love.

Eight Second Ride (a Studs in Spurs series short story)
Young pro bull rider Chase Reese learns a lesson about women the hard way, but makes a friend in the process in this high energy, action packed 3,000 word single scene. Written as a "thank you" to the fans of the Studs in Spurs series who requested more of Chase. See more of Chase and his fellow bull riders Slade and Mustang in the Studs in Spurs series by Cat Johnson and don’t miss Chase’s book Ride (Studs in Spurs, Book 3).

It all started in first grade when Cat Johnson won the essay contest at Hawthorne Elementary School and got to ride in the Chief of Police's car in the Memorial Day Parade...and the rest, as they say, is history. As an adult, Cat generally tries to stay out of police cars and is thrilled to be writing for a living. She has been published under a different name in the Young Adult genre, but released her first romance in 2006.

Today, she is a NY Times & USA Today best-selling, award-winning author of contemporary romance. A promo ho, she's sponsored real live bull riding cowboys and promoted romance using bologna.

I thought this was going to be a collection of short stories about cats. OK ... I was half right. Yes, there are cats involved one way or another in each of these stories. However, the stories are mostly sex for the sake of sex. Not much substance in the stories.

Just not my cup of tea. I'm sure there are many readers who find this collection entertaining .. I'm just not one of them.

I ranked it 3 stars .. right in the middle.

Black Cat - I enjoyed this story, there was just the right amount of back story to make him a deeper character and to gain your sympathy for Belinda. But my rating actually went down a little at the end. I'm OK with a HEA, but this one just turned a little too quickly for me to be believable and it sucked me out of the story quite a bit. 3 stars

Friends With Benefits - This was really good at first, and that sex scene with 'bunny' was great. It was just Meg's insecurities and bitchiness that annoyed me, because it made it hard to imagine why he would want to be in a relationship with her. 3 stars

Fireworks - This was a steamy little read with, again, just the right amount of back story. It was a little awkward for a minute there but then it turned around and was just some good old fashioned (dirty) fun. 3 stars

This was an ok book. I liked maybe half of the book. There were some good stories, because of personal preference, the others I didn't really like. (I don't get why there need to be more than just the couple?) I really liked Black Cat, that's my favorite, Friends with Benefits was pretty good, andThe Soldier and the Siren was shorter than I would've liked but good. Overall, it was ok. The ones I liked were fun and steamy. I wouldn't mind reading just those one again. A good quick steamy read. Good Luck

The 4 stars are for Black Cat and Friends With Benefits. The other stories were okay, just not long enough. I had read Friends With Benefits before so I remembered it as a cute little story. I reread it today and it is. I love the friends to lovers stories and this one was perfect. Black Cat was a little "out there" but I loved it anyway.

The first 2 stories were good. The next 2 stories were rushed and really didn't have much of a story. The last 2 were from parts of a book and they were ok since I haven't read the books and really didn't know the story behind it. I would like to read a whole story by this author and I probably will end up reading more by here to see what else she writes.

Way smexier than my normal fair, but also these short shorts didn't end up overly bogged down in smexy stuff - mostly a quick setup, a quick hook up and then on to the next story. I haven't read a lot of Johnson, but had just finished one of her 'red hot and blue's so I was a little surprised to find this was way spicier than the one I read (Dalton ) with some backdoor action and multiples too.

If you don't like short sexy stories, don't read this book and give it a bad review. For SHORT stories, this was a great book. No, you don't get a lot of character depth or background, but that doesn't make the stories bad or just ok. In my opinion, they are great and it got me interested in a new author. Win-win

Cat Snips gives you a tantalizing taste of stories

With Cat Snips each story give you just a little taste of what Ms. Johnson writes. My favorites were Black Cat, Friends with Benefits, Soldier and the Siren and Fireworks. They each give a chapter or two of the type and style of stories that Cat Johnson writes from her Studs and Spurs, SEALs and paranormal.

Quick, easy read, I finished it in one night. Be forewarned, this is erotica. Since they are short stories they get to the action quick. I have an opportunity to meet the author this month, so I will probably read her military series.

I really enjoyed all four short stories. From the past to the present day, with a little magic and spicy romance. The Women get the men of their deepest dreams.
