ARC Review; Virgin (Cat Star Chronicles) [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished "Virgin" the 7th book in her Cat Star Chronicles by Cheryl Brooks.

Product Description

Zetithians have a feline gene that gives the males remarkable sexual prowess. Refugee Dax is no exception - but as a virgin, he has no idea how to use it. His fumbling attempts at romance fail to tempt the beautiful Ava, but he is determined to learn the art of love. Let the seduction begin ...

My Review:

We open the book with Captain Jack lecturing Dax for being the last remaining virgin Zetithian on the planet. I thought this was funny because Zetithians have a reputation for being great lovers. Dax has his eye set on Ava but it seems like she isn't interested in him at all.

Ava is fed up with Lars so she beans him one and decides to go back home to Acquerei and return to her old boyfriend.  Dax fears he doesn't stand a chance of winning her heart but his shipmates and butler/robot Kot play matchmaker.

I really enjoyed the funny and witty dialogue between the characters and it was a delight following Dax's clumsy attempt of a courting Ava.

I really enjoyed the secondary characters of Kot who was sly, scary and mischievous and Waroun who is a wisecracking flirt.  Threldigan and Quinn were also interesting characters.

4/5

Thanks Danielle from Sourcebooks for sending me this ARC to review, greatly appreciated!
