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.

Believing it's all he's good for, Tarq sets out to perpetuate his threatened species by offering his services to women across the galaxy... BUT ONE FORCE CAN BRING THEM TOGETHER... Lucinda Force is the sensitive dark horse in a self-absorbed family, repeatedly told that no man will ever want such a plain woman.
