Tarq Zulveidione's sexual prowess is known across the
worlds. He has come to Talus Five to offer his services to
anyone willing to bear his children. All his plans change
when he meets Lucy in a small restaurant. Her scent
intrigues him in a way that no other woman can. Once he has
sex with her, no other woman is of interest to him. He
proposes to take Lucy with him but she runs away from home
before he can do so. Targ sets out to find Lucy and both of
them will land in trouble.
Lucy's father has always been verbally abusive. He insists
that no one will want to marry her and she must stay with
him to help in the restaurant and take care of her mother at
home. Even when Tarq propositions her, she can't believe he
would be interested. However, when Tarq continues come to
the restaurant, she offers him a deal. She will sleep with
him as long as he gets her pregnant. Normally, Tarq won't
sleep with anyone who isn't in their fertile stage but he
can't resist Lucy. His few times with Lucy result in the
expected pregnancy but he isn't ready to let her go.
When Lucy heads toward Yalka, Tarq follows her and offers to
deliver her there. Instead they are set upon by bandits.
Tarq is injured and his speeder is taken. Lucy finds her
friend's home has been burned and they are all hiding out in
the mountains. Tarq will have to lead all of the refugees to
Yalka and prevent them from being killed by the many
voracious fauna of Talus Five.
Cheryl Brooks has brought the humor back to the Cat Star
Chronicles. Highly erotic, STUD is a fascinating read. She
manages to leaven serious situations with a touch of humor
which keeps the reader involved in the book. I was about
ready to give up on this series but this book will keep me
reading.
