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 – Warlord’s Return
The Chamele Barbarian Warlords series and the Refuge (Dark Thoughts) series are very much entwined. The Chamele Barbarian series starts as the Chameles’ return from the Refuge. In Warlord’s Return, the final book in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series, the Chameles return to the Refuge.
Both Ariq and Xareni are warriors. The Succession Wars have ended. Ariq is looking for a new war and he finds one with Xareni. (grins) The chemistry between them sizzles. They battle. They have sexy times. They share their secrets.
And there’s a mini-dragon! This is a fun story and I think you’ll enjoy it.

Warlord’s Return
Ariq is a barbarian warrior seeking a war.
He locates that battle when he meets Xareni.
* * *
Ariq is one of Chamele’s top warriors. A genetic predisposition to fighting, paired with intensive training and experience, has honed the scarred male into an effective killing machine. He loves war, can’t live without combat.
The Succession Wars, however, have finally ended and the Chamele sector is now at peace. Seeking excitement and purpose, the barbarian warrior accompanies his Second to the Refuge, an outlaw settlement on Carinae E. He hopes to locate the battle he’s been craving there.
Ariq finds that conflict and more when he meets his fated mate.
Xareni owes the Ruler of the Refuge a favor. That’s the only reason she has returned to the settlement. She doesn’t like crowds or structures or a certain barbarian warrior who insists on following her everywhere. It doesn’t matter that there’s a connection between them, that he makes her burn with desire, that he looks at her with heat in his dark eyes.
She’s a monster and monsters don’t need anyone.

Warlord’s Return is a STANDALONE Alien Barbarian SciFi Romance featuring a determined barbarian warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an eyeball-eating mini dragon.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
If you’re in a Halloween-type of mood as I am and you’re looking for a Halloween-themed romance to read, Dark Thoughts would be my pick of all my stories.
Kralj is a modified humanoid and unique but he DOES have a vampire vibe to him. He drinks blood (well…he eats his enemies and blood IS part of that). He can read most minds. He believes he’s a monster.
His human heroine, Dita, believes she’s a monster also. The pint-sized assassin isn’t scared of anyone, including Kralj. She is the sunshine to his darkness and very much his equal.
Can love redeem a monster?
The Refuge is home to some of the most violent beings in the universe. Kralj, its leader, reigns over the remote outpost with terrifying ease, ruthlessly squashing any rumors of rebellion, killing anyone who breaks his rules. Primitive, deadly, powerful, he’s a monster, scarred both on his face and his soul. He has never met a being he couldn’t control.
Until he meets her.
Dita has one mission—to kill the three targets claiming sanctuary within the Refuge. Or so she claims. For the first time in his long lifespan, Kralj isn’t certain of another being’s intentions. The tiny assassin is immune to his powers, her thoughts unreadable. He can’t predict her movements, can’t control her, can’t stop wanting her.
Dita is rare, as unique as he is, and, to keep the residents of the Refuge safe, Kralj will have to kill her. But first, he’ll touch her, taste her, show her how passionate the beast inside him can be.
Dark Thoughts is a STAND-ALONE SciFi Romance.
The hero might be tall, dark, and scarred but don’t be fooled by his appearance.
He’s truly a monster.
This story is not for readers with delicate sensibilities.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Mercy
The Chamele Barbarian Warlords series was originally supposed to be only 3 books long. It would tell the stories of the 3 Warlord brothers. In the final story, they would defeat the big baddie – Tolui – and there would be peace in the Chamele sector (or it would be as peaceful as a sector filled with warriors could be).
The problem was…Tolui wouldn’t die. The d*mn warrior stubbornly and cleverly escaped death again and again. And he showed mercy to his perceived foes during the confrontations. His cause was just.
He was a hero disguised as a villain and he deserved love, a future, a chance at a happy ever after.
I HAD to tell his story and I’m happy I did. It was a story worth sharing.
Other Chameles view him as the enemy.
She sees the warrior hero he never believed he could be.
* * *
Tolui is a Warlord in search of a planet to rule. He has been leading his fellow clones in a stealth battle, fighting for both control of the Chamele sector and the right to exist. The brave warriors he commands warrant respect, and they deserve the best.
That best isn’t the barren, dangerous terrain on Chamele 4. When Tolui crashes on that planet’s surface, he’s determined to leave it as soon as possible. The tiny human female rescuing him might be as beautiful and as wild as the land she inhabits, but her flowing words, trusting gaze, and enthralling submission won’t stop him from rejoining the war.
After many solar cycles of living alone, Lea is overjoyed when a tall, scarred, muscular warrior falls from the sky. Her savage stranger is strong and severe, and he makes her feel safe, an emotion she hasn’t experienced in a long, long time.
He also insists they must part. Before they do, she’ll show him the splendor of her home, and she’ll enjoy his big form, collecting passionate moments she can revisit when she’s solitary once more.
Every additional moment Lea and Tolui spend together increases the chance they’ll both die. Lea is being chased by female-hating fiends. Tolui is being hunted by the best bounty hunters in the universe. War will soon arrive on their threshold, and the blood spilled might be their own.

Dark Arsenal is a free short story, a thank you to regular readers. It assumes you’ve read some of the Dark Thoughts/Refuge series and some of the Cyborg Sizzle (first) series.
The heroine is Vicuska, the human rebel agent we first met in Dark Fire. The hero is Arsenal, the cyborg warrior we first met in Knowing Zip. Both of these warriors believe they will die on their mission.
They never projected they would find love.
A cyborg warrior and a Rebel female’s first mission together might be their last.
Arsenal considers himself to be a disposable cyborg. He drifts from assignment to assignment, forming no connections to anything or anyone. When the cyborg council requires a warrior for a high-risk mission, Arsenal volunteers. He believes no one will miss him if he dies.
He doesn’t realize he’s one female’s fantasy.
The moment Vicuska glimpses Arsenal’s image, she knows he’s the male she wants to spend her last moments in the universe caressing. The Rebel female craves the cyborg’s grim-lipped kisses, desires the touch of his hands, hears his deep voice in her dreams.
Their mission will end in explosions and death. That is certain if they fail or if they succeed. Whether or not they’ll find love during their dangerous assignment is the unknown.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord Reunited
Berke and Elle from Warlord Reunited remind me a bit of Cadet/Eirene Ours and Power. Both of these couples have a lengthy, emotionally-challenging history. Berke and Elle met solar cycles ago. They had a whirlwind relationship, were wildly in love.
Then Berke sent Elle away. He didn’t give her any explanation. She was too proud to ask him for one.
Until circumstances brought them back together. THAT is where Warlord Reunited starts.
Warlord Reunited
This barbarian warrior’s cold demeanor hides the warmest of hearts.
* * *
Solar cycles ago, Berke, a savage Chamele Warlord, found his gerel, the one being he is destined to be with for all time…except he couldn’t embrace that fate. He was fighting a series of brutal wars.
To protect his little human female, he conveyed her far from the Chamele sector. He then returned to the endless battles, concealing his pain, his anguish, his need, under a thick layer of ice.
His gerel was safe. That was all that mattered to him.
When Elle was a young bounty hunter, she bonded with an arrogant warrior on a distant planet. She was deliriously happy…for a while. Then he dumped her in a strange settlement far from his home and left, never to return.
Their parting caused her excruciating pain—both physical and emotional. She endured it, earned the esteemed role of head bounty hunter of an academy, salvaged a bit of a life from the disaster her primitive warrior had made of it.
Now, two of her bounty hunters have made the same terrible mistake. Elle is determined to rescue her friends and break their connections with their Chamele Warlords.
While she is in the sector, she plans to kill the warrior she’d once considered hers. Elle is ending her relationship with Berke…permanently.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord’s Bounty
Each of the three Warlord brothers ruling the Chamele sector has their own specialty. Khan, the hero of Warlord’s Bounty, is the warrior. He prefers to take action and he really enjoys killing. Any relationship he has will be extremely physical.
Which suits Zeta, his gerel, as she is also a take action type of being. She’s a bounty hunter determined to capture Khan. What she doesn’t realize is… he WANTS to be captured.
Warlord’s Bounty
Wanted: One Barbarian Warrior.
The bigger the bounty, the more dangerous the target.
Khan, a Chamele Warlord, has a huge bounty on his head. His enemy wants him captured and is offering any being in the universe an outrageous number of credits to accomplish that.
Khan wants to be captured, but only if the being apprehending him is a tiny, brown-eyed female with wickedly sharp daggers and an even sharper tongue. His passion for the feisty human can’t be inhibited by restraints. He’ll allow her to subdue him…in a variety of enticing ways.
When she finally collects her credits, he’ll collect his revenge, killing his enemy and claiming his little bounty hunter forever.
Zeta doesn’t do forever. After a lifespan of chasing dangerous beings across galaxies, apprehending and trading them for credits, she doesn’t get involved emotionally…with anyone.
Khan might be fierce and sexy and the most dominant male she has ever encountered, but the barbarian is also her target, and once she sates herself with his body, she’ll betray him.
That’s her job.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord Sky
Warlord Sky is a special story for a number of reasons.
It is the first story in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series.
Warlord Sky features a pilot hero. Many of the heroes in my stories are warriors. Qulpa can fight but he prefers flying.
This story also features a non-human heroine. Nayan, the head of Ship and Weapons Design for Khan, is a Chamele but due to her…challenges, she is extremely human-like.
If you’re looking for a steamy alien romance that is a little bit different, something to bust you out of a reading rut, Warlord Sky might be just the story you’re seeking!
Warlord Sky
No one grounds a barbarian warrior.
Qulpa, a Chamele warrior, lost everyone he loved in the brutal Succession Wars. Flying is the only thing that brings him joy. Serving as his team’s pilot is the sole duty he has left. Then a horrific crash leaves him injured and unable to fly.
The one being who can help him is also his gerel, the female destined to be his. She insists she doesn’t feel their connection. Qulpa is certain his beautiful mate is lying and nothing will stop him from finding out why.
Nayan knows the injured barbarian is her warrior, her one chance at a forever bond. His dominance makes her feel safe. His gentle touch inflames her passion. His kisses scorch her very soul. The tall muscular male tempts her as no one else has.
But she has a deadly secret. If it’s exposed, her injured male will lose more than his ability to fly. Both of them will die. She can’t take that risk, not for him, not for them, not for a lifespan filled with love.

Throwback Thursday – Ghost Of A Machine
Ghost is one of my all time favorite cyborgs. He has been through so much. He tried to save beings and failed to do so and that broke him emotionally. This cyborg warrior is dealing with tremendous trauma and stars, that pulls on my heart.
Lethe knows about being broken. She has dealt with harshness and is strong enough to stand toe-to-toe with Ghost’s inner demons.
The two of them are magical together.
Ghost and Lethe appear in the Rebel Cyborgs series. If you want to know more about Cadet, consider reading Ghost Of A Machine.
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.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Cure
I often think of Dark Cure as the final story in the Refuge/Dark Thoughts series and the first story in the Chamele Barbarian Warlords series. The story officially resides with Dark Thoughts as it starts in the Refuge but it ends in the Chamele Sector.
Gisella, the heroine, is the Refuge’s Medic. She scares the sh*t out of many of the modified humanoids. (grins) They don’t mess with her.
Oghul, the heroine, however, can’t resist messing with her. She is his gerel, his fated mate. And he is determined to talk with her, touch her, claim her.
That doesn’t exactly go smoothly. (grins) But Oghul kind of likes that. He loves a challenge and Gisella is definitely that.
A warrior seeking forever faces a medic living in the moment.
Gisella, the Refuge’s medic, is dedicated to her role. She doesn’t have the space in her lifespan for love, a mate, or children. Healing is her entire focus.
But she’s also a female in her prime. She has needs, wants, cravings…especially for a scarred, long-haired barbarian warrior temporarily residing in the settlement. One fierce, soul-blasting, passion-filled encounter is all she is willing to give him before she returns to her duties.
Oghul, a Chamele Warlord’s Second-In-Command, has waited his entire lifespan to find his gerel, the being fated to be his. He’s thrilled to discover she wants him as savagely as he yearns for her.
His little human medic appeals to his primitive possessive side. Greatly. He wants to stamp his ownership all over her bountiful curves, take her back to his home planet, claim his fiery female permanently.
When Carinae E’s solitary sun rises, two determined beings with very different desires find their lifespans entwined. Their battle for emotional supremacy will span systems and alter destinies.
The universe will never be the same.
Dark Cure is a STANDALONE SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.
