Happy Star Wars Day!

Happy Star Wars Day, my friends!

(tackle hugs)

May The 4th Be With You!

Rogue One is the favorite Star Wars work in the Sax household. The Dear Wonderful Hubby, especially, loves the premise of a group of rebels taking on a dangerous mission, knowing they’re doomed but doing it because it will save their world(s).

Of all the stories I’ve written thus far, Drift Would (releasing in July) has the greatest Rogue One vibes. Yes, it IS a romance. The romantic couple survives and gets their romantic happy ever after. But there is also sacrifice and bravery and a dangerous almost impossible mission and other Rogue One good stuff in it.

I can’t wait for you to read it!

Strike Zone

A cyborg devoted to duty…and to her.

***

While attending a party, Kesser, the daughter of her planet’s leader, witnesses the abduction of her best friend and her best friend’s mate.

She’s determined to rescue them. Preferably without fracturing the fragile peace agreement her mom has crafted with the abductors’ planet.

The only issue is…she has never participated in a retrieval mission.

Searching for assistance, she approaches the mate’s guard. The male, with his big broad shoulders and deep growly voice, affects her like no other being ever has.

Kesser wants him. She trusts him. And she requires his stealth combat skills.

Desperately.

Strike is no guard. The D Model cyborg has been sent to the sector to discreetly investigate a potential planet-destroying situation.

When a curvy human female with big brown eyes requests his help with a rescue, he doesn’t hesitate to say yes. She’s his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to protect.

She’s also traveling to the next planet he has to search. He plans to claim his female while he fulfills his responsibilities to his kind.

Neither Strike nor Kesser realizes the dangers facing them are far greater than they imagine. Their enemies are converging, and one failed mission could doom the entire universe.

***

Strike Zone is a standalone, mistaken-identity, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a cyborg warrior with a finely honed sense of honor, a human support being taking on her first dangerous mission, and an evil that threatens everyone in existence.

Happy Star Wars Day

May The Fourth Be With You!

(grins)

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I went to a special screening of Asteroid Hunters, narrated by Daisy Ridley, as a pre-Star Wars Day celebration.

This documentary meshed two of my favorite movie genres – disaster movies and scifi movies. And it featured several female scientists. It was awesome!

Daisy Ridley didn’t appear on screen but her voice is very distinctive. And her narration had a Star Wars feel to it..

On a tangent, since this IS Star Wars day, I thought I’d share this photo of the blaster Carrie Fisher, our dearly departed Space Mom, used in the original Star Wars movie. The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this in a Planet Hollywood years ago.

(This book description is still unedited.)

A Beautiful Cyborg

While accompanying his leader on a mission, Odium, an E Model cyborg, hears a distress call over the communication lines.

He has to respond to the mysterious female, would risk his lifespan and the lifespans of everyone on board the ship, to protect her.

A Human Female Others Call Beast

Briella gained her nickname due to not only her flying abilities and her fearlessness but also due to her scarred countenance. Her verbal-only relationship with the sexy cyborg who answers her distress call is a steamy yet short-lived fantasy. His kind is physically perfect and she is…not. He will uncover that truth when…if they survive the attack upon her freighter.


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

A Stormtrooper On Display At The Yoda Guy Exhibit on St Maarten

Today is Star Wars Day, one of my favorite days of the year!

I love the ever-expanding Star Wars world. I also love the Star Trek world. I see no issues with loving both. They are different worlds and focus on different things and I think that’s awesome.

The Mos Eisley cantina scene in the very first Star Wars movie has always been an inspirational scene for me. I strive to, someday, write a scene similar to it except I would like reading buddies to already know the background of every participant in that scene. That would require writing numerous stories featuring a variety of aliens and cyborgs and other types of species.

That will take decades but I hope to do it!

A Display At The Yoda Guy Exhibit on St Maarten

When the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I visited the Yoda Guy exhibit in St Maarten a few years ago, Nick Maley, the man who helped craft Yoda for Empire Strikes Back, was sculpting a Yoda head. I thought that was so fraggin’ awesome.

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.
