Ok first name confusion, is she Dani or Lani? Is he Liev or Levi? And is Charmin Marvin or Charming? Because I’m confused on this. Author told me books were updated but some sites haven’t updated covers or blurbs, so since this is beyond her control I bumped review up to the 5 stars.
Otherwise this continued to be interesting and intriguing, lots going on and betrayal amongst those that should be trusted. With this horrible council board chucked in for good measure. I do love the cat, whatever his name is, he is funny and dramatic, seems to be the cleverest of all of them but still loves cuddles and food. The h is picking stuff up fast though which is good and the H is supportive and caring. Even Milo (the only one whose name stays the same) improved in this part and actually stepped up a bit to help. All good. Started 1/12/21 Finished 2/12/21
Cat’s Pajamas by Dale Mayer
Broken Protocols Series Book Two
In this second part of this series, Lani Summerland Blackburn finds herself married after only a few days in the future. For her protection. Not love. And that’s not all. It seems like everything has broken loose since she arrived in her new reality. At least she has Liev to protect her.
Liev Blackburn would like life to slow down so that he could enjoy time alone with his new wife. But no time for a honeymoon with everything happening. A trip to Council. Someone from his past who doesn’t take well to him having a wife. Of course, getting used to a talking cat in the house.
Looking forward to the next installment on this series. It’s humorous in the midst of unexpected danger. You never know what’s waiting for them around the next corner…or at their front door.

Lani and Liev are now married, in spite of the fact it was a way to protect her, they do seem to be in love. Of course there is no time to even enjoy their wedded bliss as the Council once again demands Liev’s presence. This time asking for everyone living with him to attend as well.
Despite that ruling when they arrive the clerk says only Liev was required and he was surprised when he was informed of the marriage.
Liev and Milo with their lawyer Hahn go in to face the council leaving Lani in the waiting area. Then things get interesting really quick.
Lani is sitting quietly and observing the people around her when she is approached by a woman, Gina Stewart is one of Hahn’s law partners. Unfortunately she appears to also be jealous of Lani. She gets a bit snarky but then leaves, only to return and snatch Lani from her seat and transport her.
Liev and Milo were done with the Council and their lawyer was annoyed, as they enter the waiting area Liev doesn’t see Lani. It’s then Milo gets a message from Charming Marvin. Dang that cat is showing more and more capabilities.
This is not the end of these attempts either, but bodies start showing up as well.
I love Charming Marvin and I definitely understand Lani’s frustration that her cat can do more than her. The talking does help a bit but the rest is just…well strange.
Lani is doing her best to adjust but then things get weird with their unregistered medical pod.
I couldn’t put this book down, things start happening fast and furiously as suspects start turning up dead.
There’s plenty of action, hold your breath moments, and some sizzling heat as we learn more about what’s going on.
