Throwback Thursday – Dark Flight
Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, is the most classically handsome of all the heroes in my story. And he is truly ‘classically’ handsome as he sports wings. (grins) He looks like an angel but he is SO not one. He’s Kralj’s second-in-command at the Refuge, is a fierce warrior, loves to fight.
Rhea, his heroine, is as strong as he is. She’s dedicated to her younger sister and would do anything, even team up with Orol, to protect her.
This story has a gladiator-in-space type feel to it. There are competitions, fights to the death. If you enjoy those types of stories, you might love Dark Flight.
Dark Flight
His mission. His challenge. His forever.
Orol, the Refuge’s second-in-command, has been given what he believes is a simple mission—escort two human females to the settlement. The winged warrior arrives at the meeting site to find one of the females missing and the other aiming a gun at his head. To rescue the first, he must capture the second. Once he has Rhea in his talons, however, he realizes he never wants to let her go.
Her enemy. Her captor. Her everything.
Rhea doesn’t trust anyone. She certainly doesn’t follow commands issued by a gorgeous flying male with glittering eyes, a beautiful face, and a seductive touch. Orol is dominant, edged with darkness, and determined to find her sister. Rhea will do anything to prevent that, even if it means playing sensual games of submission with her powerful enemy, seducing him into forgetting everything except her.
Dark Flight is a STAND-ALONE SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.

Bonding Ceremonies – Chasing Mayhem
The celebration of marriages and other unions during this wonderful month of June wouldn’t be complete without the bonding ceremony found in Chasing Mayhem. The exchange of armlets and words play an important role in Imee’s culture and in her story.
Here is a snippet from Chasing Mayhem…
***
“I’m never releasing you.” He reached under the pile of body armor. “I’ve decided to bind you to me for all eternity.”
“No more games.” She pulled on the restraints. “I—”
He held out two silver-colored armlets, one small, one large, and she stopped talking, stunned. The gear-and-cog design was unique, intricate, beautiful.
But it was his words paired with his choice of gift that caused tears to prick her eyes and a ball of emotion to form in her throat. He wanted to bind their souls forever.
It was one of her secret wishes, a dream she held close to her heart.
“Don’t you dare joke about this, Mayhem.” She wouldn’t survive it.
“I’m serious.” And he did appear that way, his lips flat. “They’re manufactured from my mechanics, some of the most durable substances in the galaxy.”
He’d put a piece of himself in the armlets. Her vision clouded. “You fool. You shouldn’t have done that.” It must have hurt him.
“My nanocybotics replaced them.” He shrugged. “Our lifespans will be long. My mechanics were the logical choice.”
She suspected his decision had involved more than logic. “If we do this, our souls will be entwined until time ends.”
“They already are, my female.” He snapped the smaller armlet around her left biceps. “I give to you my soul for safekeeping. It is yours. In this lifespan and the next. Guard it well for I have no other.”
He had studied and learned the binding words. Imee stared at the armlet, unable to speak. His nanocybotics bubbled inside her. She wore his armlet, a symbol of his soul.
He’d always be with her. She would never be solitary.

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?
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 – Releasing Rage
I re-read Releasing Rage, the very first Cyborg Romance I published, on the weekend and stars, I love this story.
I love Rage, how unfiltered and feral and raw his emotions are.
I love his relationship with Crash and Gap, how he secretly cares for those two warriors.
I love Joan, his fearless female, and how she understands Rage, perhaps because she feels as much fury for the injustices in the universe.
The two of them seem, at first, like an unlikely couple yet they work. There is genuine, lasting love between them.
If you haven’t yet read Releasing Rage, it is currently free! If you have read it and you enjoyed it, I hope you will recommend it to one of your reading buddies.
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 – Dark Flight
The migratory birds have returned to my corner of the universe. They chirp happily all day and it is such a merry sound. They’re likely arguing or something like that. (grins) I don’t understand bird but I think they’re happy and I smile when I hear them.
Orol is the being I think of when the birds return. He’s the winged hero of Dark Flight, the second story in the Refuge/Dark Thoughts Series. This modified humanoid loves to fly.
Which means there are some steamy scenes with Rhea, his mate, in the air. Those were fun to write and I find them fun to read.
Dark Flight
His mission. His challenge. His forever.
Orol, the Refuge’s second-in-command, has been given what he believes is a simple mission—escort two human females to the settlement. The winged warrior arrives at the meeting site to find one of the females missing and the other aiming a gun at his head. To rescue the first, he must capture the second. Once he has Rhea in his talons, however, he realizes he never wants to let her go.
Her enemy. Her captor. Her everything.
Rhea doesn’t trust anyone. She certainly doesn’t follow commands issued by a gorgeous flying male with glittering eyes, a beautiful face, and a seductive touch. Orol is dominant, edged with darkness, and determined to find her sister. Rhea will do anything to prevent that, even if it means playing sensual games of submission with her powerful enemy, seducing him into forgetting everything except her.

Throwback Thursday – Releasing Rage
Releasing Rage was the first cyborg romance I ever wrote.
I wrote it for myself. Two of my favorite cyborg romance writers were taking a break from their series at the same time. I was craving my cyborg romance hit, was bellyaching about it to the Dear Wonderful Hubby. He pointed out that I was a writer. I should write my own cyborg romances.
So I did.
When I finished Releasing Rage, I thought other cyborg romance reading buddies (I SEE you!) might enjoy it also.
Releasing Rage should be currently FREE everywhere.
If you enjoyed this story, I hope you will suggest other readers try it. The more cyborg romance readers we have, the more cyborg romances other writers will write. That’s a win for everyone!

Throwback Thursday – Chasing Mayhem
Mayhem is one of the wildest cyborgs I have ever ‘met’. He embraces chaos, loves to stir the pot. I think he and Truth would be great friends. They both have that same type of excitingly unstable energy around them.
In the cyborg retrieval team, in the Rebel Cyborgs series, the most similar warrior is Grudge. That cyborg LOVES to blow things up. Which is something I think Mayhem would appreciate.
Mayhem’s female, Imee, being a bounty hunter of sorts, would likely love Grudge’s unique skills also. She has trained herself to take down other beings. Sometimes that requires blowing things (and beings) up.
Mayhem and Imee are a fun couple. If you haven’t yet read Chasing Mayhem, I think you’ll really enjoy it.
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.

Throwback Thursday – Ghost Of A Machine
If you plan to re-read previous stories as we wait for Containing Malice to release, I strongly suggest you consider re-reading Ghost Of A Machine.
Why?
Because Ghost and Lethe make a brief appearance in Containing Malice. Some reading buddies (you know who you are – grins) have been requesting updates on this couple. Those reading buddies will likely be VERY happy with this upcoming series as Ghost and Lethe are referenced to or make an appearance in almost all of the stories. They are key to the development of a certain character.
Ghost and Lethe will also appear in many of the newsletter updates so you might wish to subscribe to my newsletter if you haven’t already done so.
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 – Dark Flight
I always associate angels with this time of the year. When I was a child, we had an angel tree topper. She was very old, as I always assume angels are, and she was extremely fragile, which I picture angels to appear. I was as fumbly then as I am now and I never trusted myself to hold her, feared I would drop her.
Orol, the hero of Dark Flight, resembles an angel in some ways. He has wings, has the ability to live forever, enjoys powers humans don’t have, is extremely beautiful. He is very NOT like an angel in other ways. He enjoys killing a bit too much and he vastly enjoys sexy times with his mate. (grins)

Throwback Thursday – Releasing Rage
Containing Malice, the first story in the Rebel Cyborgs subseries (releasing in February), reminds me of Releasing Rage, the first cyborg romance I crafted. The heroes are both C Models and they are both very angry…with good reason.
There are huge differences, of course. Malice and Rage are each unique beings. Their pasts are different and their futures will be different. Their females are extremely different. Joan, Rage’s female, is an engineer, as one example. Illona, Malice’s female, is a medic forced into an evil scientist role.
But I love both of these stories. While you’re waiting for Containing Malice to release, you might wish to revisit with Rage and Joan and re-read Releasing Rage.
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.
