Welcome To August!
August is always an exciting month for me. Some of my favorite people were born in August. This year, it is even more thrilling as Baring Grudge is releasing!
August was (re)named after the Roman Emperor Augustus. He chose this month because some of his greatest triumphs, including the conquest of Egypt, happened around that time.
In my corner of the universe, the Perseids meteor shower is putting on its thrilling show in August. I’m really looking forward to it.

Baring Grudge
No one in the universe is more determined than a cyborg warrior tracking his female.
***
Grudge, a C Model cyborg, has been assigned a mission – safeguard a Humanoid Alliance space station for his kind. Honor was once all he had, and he is determined to fulfill his duty.
That resolve is tested when a tiny human female enters the space station and sets the prettiest little explosives the warrior has ever seen. She is Grudge’s genetic match, the one being manufactured for him. He wants to touch her, kiss her, claim her in all ways, but first he has to stop her from blasting him into the next galaxy.
Taelyn has a self-appointed mission—to destroy every battle robot the Humanoid Alliance has ever manufactured. A huge gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg warrior with mismatched arms won’t prevent her from achieving her goal. She’ll escape him, leaving destruction in her wake.
Before she departs, she’ll experience one toe-curling moment of hatred-edged passion with her handsome foe. She’ll show him how skilled with detonations she truly is. He will have his universe rocked.
Then she’ll disappear.
Her cyborg, however, has no intention of ever letting her go.
***
Baring Grudge is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a determined, damaged warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an explosive game of predator and prey played across galaxies.
Baring Grudge is the third of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Baring Grudge And Mushrooms
It has been so damp in my corner of the universe; our front lawn is sprouting mushrooms (our city has banned pesticides in a successful effort to save the bees so the lawn is a mixture of grass, dandelions and that super aggressive vine that is taking over the entire yard – big sigh).
I LOVE mushrooms. I find them fascinating. Their shapes are alien-like. The feel of them is as unique. Some of them can be safely eaten. Some of them make us as high as the International Space Station. Some of them can kill us.
The ones in our front yard are the expected mushroom shape and they remind me of little explosions. Grudge, the hero of Baring Grudge, enjoys blowing things up. I think he would be intrigued by these mushrooms (and likely get a kick out of exploding these little explosion-appearing fungi).

Cyborgs And Mysterious Insects
When I was a kid, I was fascinated with insects. I would watch ants gather food, chase butterflies, move worms from drying sidewalks back to the safer-for-them grass. Much to my Awesome Mom’s dismay, I would also fill coffee tins with ants and beetles and store them under my bed. Yes, I was THAT kid. (grins)
I’m still fascinated with insects today. Our corner of the universe has been heating up recently and that means insects are migrating from the more southern regions. These are new-to-me insects and I’ve been enjoying looking at them and identifying them (photo recognition makes this SO much easier).
Insects exist in the cyborg world also. When we meet Rage in Releasing Rage, he and the other cyborgs are fighting the Mantidae, giant migrating praying mantis-resembling insects. There are insects on almost every planet the cyborgs explore, including Carine E, the home of Kralj from Dark Thoughts.
Insects are a part of our universe. I expect we’ll find alien insects on other planets. I’ll enjoy looking at those also, adding them to my mental collection.

Talking Cyborgs And Isolation On Jessica Coulter Smith’s Online Home
Woot! I’m visiting the always awesome Jessica Coulter Smith at her online home – Books + Coffee = Happiness, talking about cyborgs and emerging from isolation.
Here is a snippet…
“My corner of the universe is slowly emerging from pandemic-induced isolation and…well…I’m not at all fit for public interactions. (laughs) I am a mess socially.
A friend wanted to give me a hug a few days ago and I, an avid hugger in the Before Times, backed away, held up my hands to block the hug and gave her what she said was a comically horrified look.
I saw a neighbor without her mask and told her “Nice face.” She laughed but I was mortified. Who says that to someone?
It turns out I do.”

Under Strain
A damaged cyborg warrior is hunted by a peace-loving human female.
***
Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.
That mission takes place on a small remote planet. Its lush terrain should only be inhabited by the cyborgs they were sent to rescue, but Strain senses another presence on the surface. She is watching him, tracking him, hunting him.
A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.
Strain wants to claim her. Forever.
Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.
When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.
She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.
***
Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.

July Is Here!
I always associate July with summer jobs and hard work and the smell of freshly cut grass.
My brothers and sisters and I grew up poor and would hustle for every dollar we could get. Because we were underage, we created our own jobs. One of those jobs was a very successful lawn mowing business. We’d cut lawns from dawn to dust while school was out.
July will always be paired with cutting grass for me. (grins)
July was originally called Quintilis in the 10 month Roman calendar. It was renamed in honor of Julius Caesar, the Roman general of the ‘Et tu, Brute’ fame. July (or Quintilis) was his birth month.
July is usually the hottest month in the Northern Hemisphere and the coldest month in the Southern Hemisphere. Climate change might mess that up this year but please take care of yourself and your loved ones!

The End Of June
June wasn’t my most productive month on record. (grins) But hey, that’s okay. We’re allowed to take time off. Humans NEED time off. Especially since we’re at the end (knock on wood) of a world-wide pandemic.
The highlight of June for me was my Awesome Mom, my Dear Wonderful Hubby, and myself all getting our second vaccinations. I feel such relief, such joy knowing some of the people I love have that extra layer of protection.
I have also almost completed the first draft of B Free (releasing in November) and I love it so very much. This story was a battle to write but, as I’ve mentioned in the past, those are often the best stories and B Free is proving to be no exception to that guideline.
How was your June? Did you discover any new-to-you writers and series this month? What was the highlight for you?

The Battle Against Earth Steve
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spent most of yesterday trying to reduce the spread of a super aggressive vine over our back and front yard. I love vines but this particular one is strangling every bit of vegetation in its path. It is even killing the dandelions and I didn’t think anything could do that.
We jokingly call this vine Steve, naming it after Steve, the all-powerful sentient plant on Balazoid Minor (he appears in North Bound). Thankfully Earth Steve isn’t as bloodthirsty or as arrogant as the original. He IS as dominant, however. (grins)
Will we win the battle against Earth Steve? No. Not a chance. He is everywhere. We’re merely trying to give the other plants a chance to live.

North Bound
A mission-focused cyborg battles a captivating and dramatic distraction.
***
North, the second-in-command of a cyborg crew, has two priorities—he has to explore and collect data on Balazoid Minor, a small planet in their sector, and he must bring his three-being team back to the ship alive and fully functional.
When he encounters his brash, bravado-wielding female, the one being genetically designed for him, he recognizes her for what she is—a distraction that might get him and his brethren killed. He WILL claim her, but only on his terms, when his mission is complete and everyone he is responsible for protecting is safe.
Myrina the Magnificent is the best warrior on her planet and possibly the universe. She has captured an unparalleled fourteen males for her all-female tribe. Once she has secured the fifteenth male, she will be a legend. Her name will live forever. She’ll earn the undying adoration of her sisters. Glory will be hers.
The male in her sights—and in her snare—is a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg with a skill for war and lips designed for kissing. One emotionally charged battle is all it takes for Myrina to realize she wants North for herself. She won’t share his caresses with anyone.
Their forbidden love might be destined to be, but it won’t be easy to maintain. Myrina will have to fight her sisters, an all-powerful male-eating plant, and her cyborg’s unbending will to make North hers and hers alone.

North Bound is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

Going On Adventures
Whenever the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I are faced with anything new, we tell each other we’re going on an adventure.
Adventures rarely go smoothly. There is danger and peril and struggles to overcome or endure. But there is also wonder and joy and beauty and, when I’m with the Dear Wonderful Hubby, laughs (usually during inappropriate times – grins).
We don’t know what is waiting for us around the next bend…and that is part of the fun.
It is also a reminder that trials are temporary. We’ll get out of that quicksand, save ourselves from the boa constrictor, escape the big baddies.
And the best of things, treasures can be merely a few steps away. That treasure, itself, is a mystery. It could be a double rainbow, a hug from a good friend, a slice of tasty fruit. We don’t yet know. It is all very exciting!
Have you gone on an adventure recently?

Pre-orders And Editing
I’ve been loading stories (like Baring Grudge) for pre-order as soon as I’m confident the story works. That usually happens before it has been fully edited (the excerpts in the backs of previous stories haven’t been fully edited either).
Which means…
Early blurbs/book descriptions haven’t been fully edited…or edited at all.
Some writers place a few lines like… “Description coming soon.” But I like to give you more information about what you’re possibly pre-ordering.
Usually, we can figure out whose story it is by the title. Under Strain is clearly Strain’s story. Baring Grudge is Grudge’s story. The blurb relays a bit about the plot and the love interest(s).
Those blurbs/book descriptions are rough, however. They might have typos. They might be a bit awkward or confusing (which likely means the story is still a bit rough or confusing – grins). All that is fully my fault, not my Awesome Editor’s. She hasn’t yet seen these blurbs/book descriptions.

Hers To Command And Wedding Anniversaries
June is the month I most associate with weddings so I thought it would be fun this month to revisit some of the wedding-like scenes from my stories.
In Hers To Command, two of Carys’ crew members are celebrating the 5th anniversary of their bonding ceremony. Carys, Ace and Thrasher make a brief appearance at the party.
Here’s a snippet from that scene…
***
“Commander.” One of those Ungarian males depicted rushed forward, the other male following him. “We’re so glad you could come.” He reached out his hand.
Ace and Thrasher stepped closer to their female.
The male’s gaze flicked to them and his hand lowered.
“I…” Their Carys paused, “We only have a moment, but we wanted to convey our congratulations on this special planet rotation.”
She used the word we, including them in her plans. Thrasher grinned at Ace.
“The five moons have smiled on you and your mate.” She switched to Ungarian, her growls painfully stiff. “We wish you many more moons of happiness.”
Thrasher searched his databases. That was the formal felicitations for an Ungarian pair who were celebrating five solar cycles of togetherness, an important milestone in the culture.
He glanced at the beaming males. Ungarian pairs consisted of one male and one female. These were two males.
They are defective also, Ace transmitted what Thrasher was processing.
Yet our female accepts their bond. Thrasher read the genuine happiness on their female’s face. She celebrates it.
“This wouldn’t have been possible without you, Commander,” the more verbal Ungarian male gushed, hugging the other officer. “If we were on Ungaria, our bonding wouldn’t have been recognized at all.”
“But you’re not on Ungaria. You’re on my battle station and I recognize your bonding.” Their Carys’ tone bordered on arrogance. “Your crew members recognize it also. They wish to celebrate with you.”

Three Battered Hearts. One Perfect Love
Ace and Thrasher share a special bond. They’ve never acknowledged that connection and have never fully acted on it. The Humanoid Alliance kill cyborg males like them, deeming the warriors to be defective. Now that Ace and Thrasher have escaped, they don’t trust the cyborg council and their brethren to react any differently. Physical love is too risky for them to consider.
Until they meet her.
Carys is the Commander of a Rebel Battle Station. She has dedicated her lifespan to seeking vengeance against the Humanoid Alliance and the cyborgs who killed her daughter. On her battle station, she makes the rules, and if she wants to kiss, touch, and pleasure two mysterious warriors, she will. Nothing, not even enemy warships and a mass cyborg rebellion, can stop her.
In the midst of a war, enemies can become lovers and loyalties can change in a moment. Can a forbidden relationship between two cautious cyborgs and one unbending human Commander survive?
