Hero was everything I could have wanted to happen with Micayla and Trag.
The Cat Star Chronicles is all about the few warrior survivors of the war who fought together and were all sold into slavery and how they've survived since, found their mates and are trying to find each other again. The background to the story is about a breed of warriors who are a mix between cats and humans and their planet has been blown up and any survivors are hunted down and killed and no-one really knows why. Hero is a sci-fi romance meets erotica romance and is brilliantly written by Cheryl Brooks. Fighting the enemies who are determined to wipe out the Zetithian race may be easier than convincing these hardheaded lovers that they were made for each other. Considering the odds, it's a safe bet, until he encounters Micayla. Trag has sworn he'll never marry, unless he can find a Zetithian woman. Typical of her species, she's aloof and uninterested in men, that is until she meets Trag, the Zetithian pilot for an intergalactic arms dealer and the sexiest, most irksome man she's ever met. Raised on earth, Micayla is the last living Zetithian female. I was really interested in finding out about Hero just for Micayla as she's the last female of her kind left and wondered what she would be like.
These are pretty hot stories as to the lovemaking element and pretty goofy but hey I accepted the snard in the first book and have just gone with the flow since then. The laws of physics (within sci fi boundaries i.e., space travel must be feasible) seem to apply which is not always the case with SFR. The sci fi is light but consistent and pretty well done. The scenes where he realizes he loves her and tries to tell her while protecting his own heart are very touching and sweet. They do eventually fall in love but it takes them awhile to grow into each other. This book was pretty well written and the plot made sense especially since we finally find out why the planet was destroyed. It's kind of a blind leading the blind thing as neither one is knowledgeable about the customs of their race since their world has been destroyed. He is in love with his brother's wife and although he wants his own mate, Micayla seems too much trouble and she doesn't seem to really like him so he just leaves her alone which neither of them understand is not how Zetithian mating is supposed to work. Neither one of these two fall in love at first site, which I liked. When she meets Trag, a Zetithian male she doesn't understand her odd response to him. She doesn't understand her hardwiring as an alien. Because she was rescued and raised on Earth she knows nothing about her own race. The heroine is the only known Zetithian female. This is my favorite of the series so far.
