Outcast by Cheryl Brooks

Another steamy tale of the Cat Star Chronicles, outcast isn't just another story of the irrisistable Cat Men, it's a story of torturous love, desire and need. Although all of Cheryl Brooks books leave you wanting more from these amazingingly sexy alien men, this one makes you ache for most of the book!

From the Back of the Book:

This fourth installment in The Cat Star Chronicles series maintains the qualities of excitement, world-building, sizzling romance, and great imagination that made Slave such a resounding success.

Sold into slavery when his planet was destroyed, Lynx was enslaved in a harem. He is a favorite due to his feline gene, which gives him remarkable sexual powers, but after ten years, Lynx is exhausted.

Thrown out without a penny, Lynx is bitter and anti-female. He emigrates to a new planet but can only find a job with a female rancher.

Bonnie's boyfriend has left with all their money and she needs help with the ranch. Lynx is cynical, but honest, and though he has made it clear that he wants no part of a romantic relationship, Bonnie can't resist him. She finds out about his impotence and becomes determined not to let such a beautiful and sensual young man go to waste...

My Opinion:

Not nearly as quick to the "good parts" as Rogue was, Outcast drags on the "foreplay" of the story for more than half the book. Being a romance novel, this was a little frustrating, however, it did lead to a much stronger character buildup than most romance novels give you. As you read along this book you fall in love with Lynx despite his bad attitude.

Although this one is not as good as Rogue, this is definitely a great romance novel. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves romance and sci-fi books!

My rating: 4.0 stars
