I’m fortunate to have an absolutely wonderful and so very entertaining Mom. Here is part of the conversation I had with her yesterday.

***

Cynthia Sax: (on phone) Did you get the shipment of books on Wednesday?

Awesome Mom: No! I didn’t get any books. I thought you forgot about me.

Cynthia Sax: I’d never forget about you. (I send her a snail mail letter every week and call her at least once a week.) I’ll track it down with Amazon. It must have gone to the wrong address.

(2 hours later)

Awesome Mom: (calls back) I checked and no one has received my books.

Cynthia Sax: You checked with the mail room?

Awesome Mom: I checked with everyone. Sometimes my mail goes to (x apartment building) and (y house) and (relays a long and very specific list of addresses).  I called them and they haven’t seen it.

Cynthia Sax: (blinks) You called someone at (x apartment building)?

Awesome Mom: You can’t just call one person. (scoffs like I’m an amateur) I called the lady with my same apartment number and I called their mail room and I also talked with their maintenance staff. None of them have seen my books.

(grins) That’s my Mom.

She has NO internet access, doesn’t own a computer but she has a phone (a landline) and decades of experience watching CSI.

I suspect in a week she’ll have located the delivery person.

If her books are anywhere in her city, she’ll find them.

While she does that, Amazon is sending her replacement copies.

Testing Truth

A fun-loving cyborg gets serious about love.

***

Truth lives each moment as though it were his last. The cyborg warrior rushes into danger, teases beings he shouldn’t provoke, accepts every call of adventure he encounters.

When a prissy little human princess floats into the Rebel structure Truth is occupying, seeking a mercenary to assist her and her unusual entourage, he volunteers to be her warrior. She claims their assignment is dangerous, warns him he might not survive the task.

That is exactly the type of fun he has been seeking.

Princess Nanette of the planet Royaume must rescue her estranged brother from an enemy prison ship. That is her duty, and she has been trained to always place the needs of her planet and her subjects before her own. Nancy doesn’t have the freedom to indulge her passions for a certain dark-haired, gray-skinned cyborg. Not permanently and not publicly.

But she is unable to resist the warrior. Truth, with his laughing eyes, smiling lips, and rough hands, tempts her as no one else ever has. He could be her one fleeting act of rebellion before she’s matched with the powerful ruler her planet requires.

If they survive their current mission.

Their love is doomed. Their lifespans are at risk. This cyborg and his princess will need the help of every ally they have if they wish to see another sunrise.
