Mystic (Cat Star Legacy, #2) by Cheryl Brooks

Review by Sasha Cheryl Brooks is back with another addition to the Cat Star Legacy series. The mystical and magical world of the Zetithian people. This time the love story focuses on Althea's parents and how their love story started. I thought the family connection was a fascinating aspect to incorporate with the story. This way the readers can discover the similarities, like how both couples would go through hell to protect their true love, and the differences that both couples went through. Additionally, it’s nice to understand the actions behind the characters choices because their parents were major parts of their lives and upbringing. Sula is stuck in a pit of sadness after the death of her true love. When a plague hit her people and he suddenly got infected, Sula committed herself to do everything she could to find a cure and stop it from spreading further across their world and destroying other planets. While she may have dedicated her life to science and academia, Sula isn’t one to shy away from an adventure. When she met Aiden she didn’t know the secrets that he hid and the way he would cause her world to change. Aiden isn’t a typical Zeithian man. Unlike many of his people, Aiden has the ability to glimpse into the future. This ability might be a gift but it has also brought him grief and confusion. His visions are filled with the plight of his people. Abandoned by his parents, he distanced himself from others in an attempt to keep himself protected. Aiden didn’t expect to connect with Sula. They both realize that they not only want each other in their lives but need each other. Mystic has the meticulously written sex scenes that Brooks has come to be known for (and trust me they do not disappoint). The espionage aspect of the novel was the highlight for me. There’s nothing sexier than a couple of beautiful people who are in love with each other sneaking around in dark, hidden places in order to save the world. While this is the second novel in the series, a new reader is easily able to pick it up and not be confused about the characters or storyline. **ARC provided for an honest review**
