Stud by Cheryl Brooks (Cat Star Chronicles #8) Paranormal Romance February 7, 2012 Sourcebooks Reviewed by Helyce I have been a fan of Cheryl Brook’s Cat Star Chronicles since I came across a tattered copy of Slave in my local used book store.

For me, this series is the best of both worlds Continue Reading

Was it harder to draw the mystery out? By now, it's no secret that I ended the first book in the Ash trilogy on a cliffhanger. Now, the romance itself, that is resolved. But the mystery…not so much. You won't find out who the bad guy is until book 3. I knew, going into the story, that it was going Continue Reading
