Testing Truth, the September Cyborg Romance release, will have everything you expect from one of my stories—steamy scenes, violence, trauma, pain, love, laughs. But it will also be lighter in tone than many of my core cyborg romances.

Why?

Because Truth deals with tension, with conflict by teasing others, by making jokes, by laughing at the ridiculousness of the universe. And half of the story is written from his view. (grins) It isn’t a dark story because he won’t allow darkness to hang around him.

It doesn’t matter how grim life gets, how bad the situation is, the losses he is facing, Truth is determined to lighten the mood…and he is usually successful at doing that. He has many human lifespans of practice at adding levity to his surroundings. He’s very good at it.

Will there be scenes that make you cry? Likely. There are several scenes that make me teary-eyed when I merely think of them. But expect more laughs in this story than you usually find in one of my cyborg romances.

It is a magical quirk of the universe that I’m telling Truth’s story at one of the times in history we need some lightness, some levity. I find that so very interesting. And Truth would appreciate that ‘coincidence’. He has a healthy respect for what humans often call fate.

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.
