Throwback Thursday – Crash And Burn
Crash And Burn is the perfect book to read if you need a good cry, if turbulent emotions are building inside of you and you want to expel them in private so you can be strong for others in public.
I use romance novels ALL the time to manage my emotions. And it works for me! It is like an emotional cleansing.
Crash And Burn was a challenging story to write and I hope not to write another one like it…well…ever but it was necessary.
War is cruel and it is random. Established couples (and more) are safe in the cyborg world. Happy Ever After truly means happy EVER after. All other characters are at risk.
Crash was manufactured to be one of the best warriors in the universe. The cyborg has spent many human lifespans fighting the enemy. But, unlike his battle-loving brethren, he doesn’t enjoy killing. When he escapes the Humanoid Alliance, he vows to never end another life.
Then he meets Safyre, an infuriating human female, and he considers breaking his vow.
Safyre will do anything to save her friend, the being she loves like a sister. She’ll ravish a huge hunky cyborg, kiss his best friend, and invoke scorching hot desires the male never realized he could feel. Dark soulful eyes, a quick wit, and a tempestuous passion won’t divert her from her mission.
Love, and a planet-destroying weapon, however, might stop her permanently.

Throwback Thursday – Breathing Vapor
Although Breathing Vapor is book 2 of the Cyborg Sizzle series, it occurs over the same time period as Releasing Rage, book 1, and can be read first or on its own.
I think of Vapor as the assassin cyborg. (grins) He is stealthy, can move unobserved like vapor through a terrain, and he’s deadly. He revels in killing, loves battle.
His favorite target is Mira, a curvy human female who is, unbeknownst to Vapor, living a double life. If he is an assassin, she is a secret agent. And no one is quite sure which side she’s working for.
Breathing Vapor
Vapor is the most advanced cyborg the Humanoid Alliance has ever developed. He’s a finely honed weapon, a warrior without parallel, half man and half machine. No lock can contain him. No being can stop him. Whatever he wants, he takes.
He wants Mira Breazeal, the Designer’s daughter.
She’s his one temptation, his sexy target. Vapor shouldn’t crave her caresses, steal her kisses, make her scream with ecstasy. The cyborgs want her dead and they would question his loyalty if he didn’t kill her. The humans would shoot him on sight if he dared to touch her.
Their love is forbidden. Their desire could be lethal. One human and one cyborg will risk everything for a moment of passion.

Throwback Thursday – Testing Truth
Whenever I think of Truth, I smile. He is such a chaos-loving cyborg. He rushes into situations with both guns blazing and a big ol’ grin on his handsome face.
Princess Nancy, his female, is perfect for him. Being a royal, she is constantly surrounded by drama and over-the-top ceremony. Her entourage adds to this.
There’s never a dull moment around them. (grins)
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.

Throwback Thursday – Defying Death
Death, the hero of Defying Death, will do ANYTHING for one moment of happiness, one chance at experiencing love, companionship, caring.
That touched me when I first wrote his story. It resonates with me even more now, after two years of being in a pandemic, often under lockdown, separated from some of the people I love most in this universe (like my Awesome Mom).
Tifara, the heroine, wants to understand what is impacting her, why she feels this tremendous attraction toward Death, the big, tough, stern warrior male who is her genetic match. Her expertise is viruses so, of course, she perceives their out-of-this-universe chemistry as a virus.
The discoveries in Defying Death are KEY to many future events in the cyborg world. Tifara is mentioned in Seizing Power, for example.
Defying Death
He’ll risk it all for one moment of happiness.
Cyborgs don’t show emotion. Death learned that lesson early in his long lifespan. To survive, he hides his fierce passions behind a stoic wall. He calls no warrior friend. He never admits to caring for any being.
Even the human female he’s destined to love.
Tifara is Death’s obsession, his sole opportunity for happiness, to express the all-consuming passion burning brightly inside him. He’ll do anything to obtain the curvaceous medic: defy a direct order, abduct Tifara from her battle station, and wage war on his fellow cyborgs.
To earn her love, he’ll have to risk much, much more.

Throwback Thursday – Crash And Burn
Crash And Burn is a three-tissue read so ensure you’re in the mood for a good cry (that’s me every day lately – grins) when you read it.
This was the toughest story I’ve ever written but it had to be told because it impacts all cyborgs everywhere. The actions in Crash And Burn ripple throughout the universe.
Crash was manufactured to be one of the best warriors in the universe. The cyborg has spent many human lifespans fighting the enemy. But, unlike his battle-loving brethren, he doesn’t enjoy killing. When he escapes the Humanoid Alliance, he vows to never end another life.
Then he meets Safyre, an infuriating human female, and he considers breaking his vow.
Safyre will do anything to save her friend, the being she loves like a sister. She’ll ravish a huge hunky cyborg, kiss his best friend, and invoke scorching hot desires the male never realized he could feel. Dark soulful eyes, a quick wit, and a tempestuous passion won’t divert her from her mission.
Love, and a planet-destroying weapon, however, might stop her permanently.

Throwback Thursday – Breathing Vapor
Breathing Vapor is story two in the cyborg saga but, timewise, it occurs over the same duration as Releasing Rage, the first story in the series.
The two stories, when read one after another, show the range of the cyborg experience. Rage is an older model, has seen many human lifespans of battle. Vapor is a newer model, hasn’t seen any battle outside the brutal training rings.
Mira, his human heroine, reveals there IS resistance within the Humanoid Alliance. Not everyone who is perceived as being loyal is truly loyal…as Vapor will soon uncover.
Breathing Vapor
Vapor is the most advanced cyborg the Humanoid Alliance has ever developed. He’s a finely honed weapon, a warrior without parallel, half man and half machine. No lock can contain him. No being can stop him. Whatever he wants, he takes.
He wants Mira Breazeal, the Designer’s daughter.
She’s his one temptation, his sexy target. Vapor shouldn’t crave her caresses, steal her kisses, make her scream with ecstasy. The cyborgs want her dead and they would question his loyalty if he didn’t kill her. The humans would shoot him on sight if he dared to touch her.
Their love is forbidden. Their desire could be lethal. One human and one cyborg will risk everything for a moment of passion.

Throwback Thursday – Testing Truth
I think of Testing Truth as my fairytale cyborg romance.
Princess Nancy, the heroine, is royalty. Truth, the cyborg hero, is…well…he causes chaos wherever he goes. There’s a prince (Princess Nancy’s brother) locked in a space tower…I mean a space prison. The royal entourage, Princess Nancy’s family of the heart, is the support system any heroine would love to have.
There are laughs and adventure and I think you’ll have a good time reading this story.
Testing Truth
A fun-loving cyborg gets serious about love.

Throwback Thursday – Defying Death
What would you do for one moment of happiness?
Death, the cyborg hero of Defying Death, would trade his life for the opportunity to meet, talk with, touch his female, the one being genetically compatible with him. His past has been dominated by pain, loss, death. He has never known true joy, would do anything to experience it.
Tifara’s goal in life is to prevent death. She is determined to find cures for any and all viruses. Her own happiness has been pushed to the side…until she meets Death.
Defying Death
He’ll risk it all for one moment of happiness.
Cyborgs don’t show emotion. Death learned that lesson early in his long lifespan. To survive, he hides his fierce passions behind a stoic wall. He calls no warrior friend. He never admits to caring for any being.
Even the human female he’s destined to love.
Tifara is Death’s obsession, his sole opportunity for happiness, to express the all-consuming passion burning brightly inside him. He’ll do anything to obtain the curvaceous medic: defy a direct order, abduct Tifara from her battle station, and wage war on his fellow cyborgs.
To earn her love, he’ll have to risk much, much more.

Throwback Thursday – Crash And Burn
Crash and Burn is the most emotionally grueling story I’ve ever written. It tore my heart out while crafting it and many reading buddies felt a similar way while reading it. This story is a three hanky read.
But it is a special story. Crash and Burn is a romance so, of course, it has a happy ever after for the main characters. Crash and Safyre have a unique relationship and a love tested by adversity. They battle against the odds and they also tend battle each other. (grins) They’re both strong-willed and have their own missions to complete.
Rage and Joan from Releasing Rage make a brief appearance in this story, as do many other cyborgs and their females.
Crash was manufactured to be one of the best warriors in the universe. The cyborg has spent many human lifespans fighting the enemy. But, unlike his battle-loving brethren, he doesn’t enjoy killing. When he escapes the Humanoid Alliance, he vows to never end another life.
Then he meets Safyre, an infuriating human female, and he considers breaking his vow.
Safyre will do anything to save her friend, the being she loves like a sister. She’ll ravish a huge hunky cyborg, kiss his best friend, and invoke scorching hot desires the male never realized he could feel. Dark soulful eyes, a quick wit, and a tempestuous passion won’t divert her from her mission.
Love, and a planet-destroying weapon, however, might stop her permanently.

Throwback Thursday – Breathing Vapor
A buddy recently asked me why Breathing Vapor is the second story in the cyborg series and not Crash And Burn.
The reason for that is because I wanted to explore the civilization on Tau Ceti before seeing its destruction. I wanted to learn about its inhabitants, care for them, view them as living, loving beings.
I also wanted to show that not all members of the Humanoid Alliance agree with what their leaders were doing. There are dissidents like Mira, the heroine. There are beings quietly or not-so-quietly trying to make a difference, make things better.
The Humanoid Alliance ARE evil and they have to be defeated. But some of their members are worthy of redemption, of trust, of love.
Breathing Vapor
Vapor is the most advanced cyborg the Humanoid Alliance has ever developed. He’s a finely honed weapon, a warrior without parallel, half man and half machine. No lock can contain him. No being can stop him. Whatever he wants, he takes.
He wants Mira Breazeal, the Designer’s daughter.
She’s his one temptation, his sexy target. Vapor shouldn’t crave her caresses, steal her kisses, make her scream with ecstasy. The cyborgs want her dead and they would question his loyalty if he didn’t kill her. The humans would shoot him on sight if he dared to touch her.
Their love is forbidden. Their desire could be lethal. One human and one cyborg will risk everything for a moment of passion.
