Cheryl Brooks did a wonderful job taking me on a tour to a different world. Her erotic, sci-fi romantic series is just the right blend of science fiction, romance, and erotica. Manx is one of the few Zetithian warrior left after their home planet was destroyed. He’s on the run since he escaped from being sold into slavery. Because of the unique sexual quality of his race, they’re usually sold into sex slavery. He’s one of the lucky few to avoid that horrible destiny.

Drusilla is an artist from earth on vacation to this wonderful planet without biting bugs. I want to visit this planet, also. I cannot abide bugs. The way they buzz in your ears, it’s about the most annoying thing of summer. I’m not even talking about the extremely itchy mosquito bite. The lakeside house she ends up with have everything she needs. There’s this adorable robot who cooks intuitively. I’d like someone to read my mind and come up with the perfect food for the moment.

This book is just so much fun to read. I never thought I’d be a sci-fi fun (beyond Ender’s Game, that is). But Cheryl Brooks made a convert out of me. I like Zef, the very ugly, wrinkly, snake-like creature who’s got a potty mouth. Somehow, he is adorable. There’s many things to look forward to in this series, and I hope it won’t end anytime soon.

Watch out for Cheryl Brook’s guest post on January 27. I will be giving away 2 copies of this book then, courtesy of Danielle from Sourcebooks.
