genitals have been pierced and cuffed. She buys him for a
song since his appearance is enough to frighten off many
other buyers. Jacinth and Cat barely make it off Orphesus Prime alive but
he agrees to help Jacinth in her quest although, he has
trouble believing her promise to free him. His attraction
to her is obvious since he is naked when she find him. Cat is from a world which was destroyed by the Nedwuts. As

feline characteristics and their prowess as lovers is

two which will endure for the rest of their lives. Fans of Linnea Sinclair will be delighted to learn about a
new author in the science fiction romance field. Ms.

and there are lots of them in this book. It borders on
erotica but the humor lifts it to an inoffensive level.

While the reason for her travels is serious, Jacinth
retains a sense of humor about her encounters with other
species;it makes her a very interesting character. If you
like a rollicking good time, pick this up and prepare
yourself for a great ride.

SUMMARY
"I found him in the slave market on Orpheseus Prime, and
even on such a god-forsaken planet as that one, their
treatment of him seemed extreme." He may be the last of a species whose sexual talents were
the envy of the galaxy. Cat is an enslaved warrior from a race with a feline gene
that gives him awesome beauty, fearsome strength, and
sensuality and sexual prowess unmatched by any other males
in the universe. Even filthy, chained, and beaten, he gives
off an aura of power and virility and his feline gene gives
him a special aura. Jacinth is an intergalactic trader on a rescue mission and
she needs a man she can trust with her life. She has spent years pursuing her kidnapped sister from
planet to planet. Now her quest leads her to a place where
all the women are slaves. "Jack" needs a slave of her
own-one who can masquerade as her master. Enmeshed in a tangle of deception, lust, and love, they must
elude a race of violent killers and together forge a bond
stronger than any chains.
