Shy student Sandy has always been unlucky in love, till a first date with suave genetic engineer Victor finds her back at his apartment and head over heels. The only problem: Sandy is terrified of cats, and Victor is obsessed with them. Worse still, his demented housecat Melody seems hell-bent on keeping Sandy away. But Sandy is too desperate to let a little fear get in the way of her dream relationship. She’ll do anything to make it work with Victor—even if his love for cats costs her more than she ever imagined.
