Throwback Thursday – Taking Vengeance
I LOVE enemies-to-lovers romances. I love the flipping of intense hate to intense love, the heat of the emotions from loathing to lust to caring. There’s so much passion, so much emotion.
Taking Vengeance is one of my favorite enemies-to-lovers cyborg romances I have ever written. Vengeance hates all humans. Astrid, the Buoir Berserker, hates all cyborgs. These two warriors are determined to kill each other…and they get dang close to doing that. (grins)
Taking Vengeance
The only force stronger than their hate is their love.
Vengeance hates all humans. They killed every being he ever cared about. When the huge C Model cyborg is told he’s genetically compatible with the enemy, he makes it his mission to capture the female and use her to expel all humans from his home planet. That should be disappointingly easy. She’s a weak, fragile human.
Then she blows up his ship, blasting to bits his preconceived notions about the enemy.
Astrid, aka the Buoir Berserker, hates all cyborgs. They killed her entire clan, including her baby sister. The warrior female has vowed to hunt down and destroy the enemy. When a savage cyborg arrogantly puts his hard, sexy body within her reach, she does the only thing a female can do—she peppers his muscular physique with projectiles.
The more passionately they fight, the stronger their attraction becomes. Neither of them will relent on their missions, yet they can’t keep their hands off each other. Their battle will either end in love to last an eternity or in death.
Taking Vengeance is a STAND-ALONE story.
It is also an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, often violent universe.

Throwback Thursday – Seeking Vector
Vector and Kasia, the hero and heroine of Seeking Vector, made an appearance in Seizing Power, my latest release. Vector is the captain of a ship Power boards and Kasia is Vector’s hacker genetic match.
Will Vector and Kasia make appearances in future stories? Yes. Absolutely yes. They are two key beings in the cyborg world.
And they are magical together. The love, the acceptance, the trust (both of them have secrets) is palpable when they are on the page. I love this couple and I hope you’ll love them also.
Seeking Vector
A cyborg with a secret… A female seeking the truth…
Vector, the C Model captain of the Freedom, is a cyborg many warriors wish to emulate. He fights fiercely, leads with honor, has earned the respect and loyalty of his crew. But no being, not even a cyborg, is perfect. Since arriving at the Homeland, Vector has been hiding a dark truth about his past. If his secret is exposed, he could lose everything – his position, his ship, and his life.
Kasia excels at uncovering secrets. Half a lifespan ago, her curiosity placed her on the Humanoid Alliance’s kill list. Now she has accessed information the cyborg council would prefer remain hidden. Their warriors are hunting her and won’t rest until she’s dead.
When Vector arrives on her battle station, all grim determination, gray skin, and bulging muscles, Kasia knows he has been sent to kill her. That doesn’t stop her from wanting the dominant cyborg. She senses the savage nature under the male’s controlled exterior, sees the mysteries in his brilliant blue eyes, craves the roughness of his touch. She will risk all she has to experience his embrace.
Kasia braved the cyborg council’s ire for a reason. If she doesn’t convince Vector to act on the information she uncovered, the enemy could destroy his home planet and render every cyborg in the universe immobile.
Can a doubting C Model warrior learn to trust and to love before it is too late?

Throwback Thursday – Ghost Of A Machine
I have a weakness for broken romance heroes and Ghost, the hero of Ghost Of A Machine, is the most damaged hero I’ve ever had the opportunity to write. When we first meet him, the huge C Model has completely disconnected his human side from his machine side. He doesn’t speak, barely understands communications. He is in a bad, bad way.
Only Lethe, his genetic match, his little human female, can reach him. She is the sole reason he now fights for survival. He will do anything for her.
Fragile. Stubborn. His.
Ghost, a C Model cyborg, has disconnected his machine from his human side. Severely damaged, he knows two things—the curvy human female on his ship belongs to him and he must keep her safe. He’ll stop at nothing to protect her, claim her, make her his.
Primitive. Damaged. Hers.
Lethe has seen the savage side of beings. The courageous Rebel captain has never met a male like Ghost. Overpoweringly dominant, he appeals to her on a primal level, filling her mind with thoughts of sweet surrender, hard kisses, and body-heating encounters against the warship’s walls.
They are two broken beings, one determined to protect, the other intent on flying into danger. Can love heal them both before they face their common enemy?
Ghost Of A Machine is Book 9 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STAND-ALONE story.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Throwback Thursday – Hers To Command
Hers To Command is the only M/M/F story written thus far in the cyborg series. There are many different relationship constructs within the cyborg factions but the stories I tend to focus on are the M/F couples. (shrugs) That’s just the way it has happened.
I had no idea Ace and Thrasher shared a special bond when I first met them but that soon became obvious. They hadn’t yet truly acted on their relationship. I was wondering why when Carys, the Commander, appeared.
SHE was the being they were waiting for. The older human female shifts their entire universe. And they kind of like that. (grins)
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?
Hers To Command is Book 8 in the Cyborg Sizzle series.
Due to the number of returning characters in this story, you’ll enjoy Hers To Command more if you’ve read the other stories first.
This is a MMF BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Throwback Thursday – Chasing Mayhem
Imee, the kick a$$ heroine of Chasing Mayhem, was named after a beloved reading buddy. That’s what happens when you reach out to me, you will likely be featured in a future story. (grins)
Mayhem, the cyborg hero, chose his name because causing mayhem or being in the midst of it makes him extremely happy. He is pure chaos, as indicated by his wild hair.
Chasing Mayhem is also the first story to mention Kralj, the all knowing, all powerful ruler of the Refuge. Kralj’s story is Dark Thoughts and it is NOT a romance for those who are squeamish. He literally EATS his enemies.
Wild. Free. Hers.
Mayhem has spent his lengthy lifespan obeying the Humanoid Alliance’s rules. Finally free from their cruel control, the cyborg warrior plans to cause chaos. He infiltrates a remote settlement, provokes the savage locals until they want him dead, and allows himself to be captured by the sexiest little Retriever he has ever laid his mechanically-enhanced eyes on.
Imee’s sole mission in life is to keep her family alive. To do this, she must hunt rebels, returning them to the Humanoid Alliance’s evil clutches where they will be executed. She doesn’t allow herself to feel anything for her targets…until she meets a tall, muscular cyborg with wild hair and even wilder eyes.
With his sure hands, laughing lips and erotic holds, Mayhem makes Imee’s body sizzle and her resistance melt. Their love is doomed. She must deliver the warrior to his death or she’ll place her family’s safety at risk. But she can’t resist him.
Imee soon discovers that Mayhem, life, and love are never predictable.
Chasing Mayhem is Book 6 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STANDALONE story.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Throwback Thursday – Releasing Rage
Releasing Rage was the first cyborg romance I had ever written.
I wrote it for myself.
Two of my favorite writers were taking a break from cyborg romance. When I told the Dear Wonderful Hubby I didn’t have any new cyborg romances to read, he suggested I write my own. (grins) He’s awesome like that (and in many other ways).
Most cyborg romances at that time were set AFTER the cyborgs had liberated themselves from their manufacturers. I wanted to know WHY they would rebel. I suspected that reason would be very dark.
And I was correct. Releasing Rage is set in a very dark world. If you have issues with violence of ANY kind, this is likely not the story for you.
Half Man. Half Machine. All Hers.
Rage, the Humanoid Alliance’s most primitive cyborg, has two goals—kill all of the humans on his battle station and escape to the Homeland. The warrior has seen the darkness in others and in himself. He believes that’s all he’s been programmed to experience.
Until he meets Joan.
Joan, the battle station’s first female engineer, has one goal—survive long enough to help the big sexy cyborg plotting to kill her. Rage might not trust her but he wants her. She sees the passion in his eyes, the caring in his battle-worn hands, the gruff emotion in his voice.
When Joan survives the unthinkable, Rage’s priorities are tested. Is there enough room in this cyborg’s heart for both love and revenge?

Throwback Thursday – North Bound
North Bound features one of my all time favorite secondary characters – Steve, the male-eating plant. Steve is sentient, extremely aggressive and considers himself to be the supreme ruler of his planet. He allows Myrina the Magnificent, the heroine, and her sisters of the heart to live there.
Steve isn’t as accommodating with North, the cyborg warrior second-in-command on the Reckless. These two dominant beings clash…violently. Myrina the Magnificent has her hands full dealing with them. (grins)
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.

Throwback Thursday – Dominance And Dissent
Cyborgs, after enduring many human lifespans of having to stifle their emotions, have a LOT of love to give. They lavish love on their females, their offspring, each other and other beings. Some, like Green, adore plants.
Dissent, the hero of Dominance And Dissent, adores angry little killer creatures called miljoonasuuts. They look like huge pill bugs. And they eat everything and everyone they encounter.
While Dissent is in the midst of saving one, he encounters another lifeform in need of assistance—Greer, the female destined to be his.
Dominance And Dissent
To earn the love of his curvy human, this cyborg will have to set her free.
***
Dissent has one primary mission—to find his female and protect her.
He doesn’t know who she is, where she’s situated, or what she looks like. That doesn’t stop him from searching the universe for her. He’s a cyborg and he’s determined. He WILL track her down.
While the J Model warrior is exploring a settlement on a merchant planet, he hears a defiant scream. Dissent has finally located the one being he’s genetically compatible with. He rushes to his little human’s side, ready and willing to defend her, eager to claim his female…forever.
Greer has only one dream—to be free. She’s been a slave her entire lifespan, has been subjected to soul-crushing abuse and pride-shredding humiliation. When an opportunity to escape presents itself, she takes it. Steps away from independence, she’s apprehended.
As she looks death in the face, waiting for the final strike, a tall, handsome cyborg warrior saves her. He exudes power, makes her tremble with desire, is unlike any of the males she’s ever known…except in one heartbreaking way.
He wants to own her.
As Dissent and Greer battle for dominance, danger looms. An enemy from the past has returned. He’s heavily armed, he’s not alone, and his sole goal is to kill both of them.
***
Dominance And Dissent is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

Throwback Thursday – Doc’s Orders
Doc’s Orders is a pandemic-themed cyborg romance I wrote long before the COVID-19 pandemic happened here on Earth. At that time, my scientist buddies had been warning me we were overdue for a pandemic…and they were unfortunately right.
Other influences on this story were articles about how we’re bringing our bacteria into space with us, how scientists work hard to determine whether lifeforms on Mars, for example, were always on that planet or we had merely transported them there during previous missions.
And, of course, spreading disease is ALWAYS a factor when two groups of beings meet. This is why there are laws around contacting isolated and remote peoples. They don’t have our immunities and…well…we don’t have theirs either.
But don’t worry! Doc’s Orders IS a romance. It has the expected romance ending. You should get that happy glow at the end of this story. And you will find out more about Cadet and the Rebel Cyborgs.
Doc’s Orders
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.
A fully functional cyborg is balanced. His machine half and his organic half work together to produce the perfect warrior.
Doc isn’t fully functional.
The G Model operates at the two extremes. When his machine is in complete control, he’s the logic-driven medic, saving lifespans. Once his organics take charge, he becomes the savage beast…and beings die.
Both sides of Doc want to be the first to claim his female.
Allinen is one of the few beings in her small settlement who wasn’t born with a fated mate. Determined to belong somewhere, she has crafted a plan to leave the planet.
That plan doesn’t involve a huge stormy-eyed male who alternates between cool seduction and out-of-control ravishment. Doc isn’t her fated mate. Allinen knows that. But his dual nature and forbidden embraces tempt her to forget forever and indulge in more immediate delights.
Neither side of Doc views their relationship as being temporary. Her conflicted cyborg is prepared to battle her family, her planet and death itself to keep her.

Throwback Thursday – Choosing Chuckles
If I had to choose one of my cyborg couples (or more) to represent the grumpy one is sweet for the sunshine one trope, it would be Chuckles and Bettina from Choosing Chuckles.
Chuckles is permanently damaged. Medics and engineers have tried to repair his leg but nothing has worked. He is often in pain and that makes him very grumpy. He also uses his grumpiness to cover up his caring, generous, giving nature. Chuckles gains great pleasure from taking care of beings.
Bettina aka Bait aka Baby yearns to have someone take care of her. She is financially responsible for others and takes great risks, holding a dangerous role to provide for them. Bettina has a happy, optimistic personality and she teases Chuckles, which he secretly enjoys.
I love the two of them so very much. (smiles)
Choosing Chuckles
A Cynical Cyborg Meets A Bad, Bad Female.
Chuckles hates all humans. In the past, humans betrayed him. That treachery caused permanent damage to his muscular form, resulting in a lifespan of pain.
When the primitive D Model cyborg answers a distress call sent by a pink-and-blue haired, sparkly human female, he knows it’s a trap. He still has to respond to her fake cry for help. She belongs to him, is the one being genetically fabricated for him. But he plans to be her captor, not her captive.
Bettina, aka Bait, works with a team of females, snaring sexual predators in space, seizing their ships and transporting them to primitive planets. As soon as she speaks with Chuckles, she knows he’s not like the others. He has honor, is a being worthy of respect, of caring.
But she can’t let him go. She has to trap him. His dominance thrills her. His deep voice evokes desires she’d never experienced in the past. She’ll risk it all, breaking every rule for one wild encounter with the male she calls Sir.
