Taste of Cyn

C.S. Sax, Medieval Dragon Shifters And Short Stories

By Cynthia Sax on September 2, 2020

I’ve been debating releasing my short stories for years. I love writing short stories. They are great food for my muse. I also love reading them. Romance short stories are little hits of happiness. But my focus was (and still is) on the cyborg series and people have told me again and again readers don’t want short romances.

Then the Great Pause hit.

I sometimes struggle now with reading longer works. With everything going on, with all the changes in my life, I often want a short romance, something with some steam and definitely with a romantic happy ever after.

I decided to take the leap and release some collections of short stories (I’m releasing collections because those are easier to produce. I only need one cover and only have to format it once.).

If they make one reader a little bit happier during the Great Pause, I will be happy.

Note: The stories in the first collection, Medieval Dragon Shifters, have all been previously published. They have been heavily revised and are 50% longer. The original stories were titled Dragon Lord’s Mate, Dragon Lord’s Prize and Dragon Lord’s Fire. I changed the titles because there have been some trademark discussions over ‘Dragon Lord’ and I don’t want to wade into the midst of that. That’s also why I didn’t mention this in the blurb. I like to keep the drama on the page. (grins)

Medieval Dragon Shifters

It is a time of legend, a time of gallant knights, fearless ladies and mythical beings, a time when dragons rule the land. Primitive, possessive, deadly, these dragons have a secret—they’re also the human-appearing rulers of their kingdoms.

Dragon-shifting warriors court their fated mates in three tales of adventure, magic and passion.

The Spare (The Black Dragon) – Taja dreams every night of a great scarred dragon. She is stunned when, one morning, her dragon-shifting lord arrives at her father’s castle, intent on claiming her forever.

Dragon Games (The Golden Dragon) – Sabine wants to wed a serious, constant lord. She is in love with a teasing, laughing dragon warrior.

Dragon Fire (The Red Dragon) – Trinia must compete against an ancient prophecy to claim her dragon warrior’s heart.

Claim your inner dragon. Escape into a medieval fantasy world with these lunch-hour-length romances.

Testing Truth – A Perfect Release Date

By Cynthia Sax on September 1, 2020

One of the many things I love about Testing Truth is how it is being released at, what I believe to be, the perfect time to read it.

Truth is a sh*t disturbing, fun seeking cyborg. His story could never be super dark because he’s not a super dark hero. He manages stressful situations with jokes and antics.

Dark things happen in Testing Truth. This IS a Cynthia Sax Cyborg Romance. The death count is…healthy. (sheepish grin) But these situations seem much lighter due to Truth’s reactions to them.

And I think many of us could benefit from a lighter-toned story right now. 2020 has been a tad bit stressful. (laughs semi-hysterically) We need our happy ever afters. We need some of Truth’s chaos, could benefit from his constant quest for adventure and excitement, that escape from the sad.

Did I plan for this?

Nope. I had set the release date for Truth’s story before I shared Choosing Chuckles in March 2019. My skills at foretelling the future are weak. (laughs) I don’t think ANY of us knew what 2020 had in store for us.

Yet Testing Truth, the lightest story in the series, is releasing this month, when some of us need a story like this the most. That feels…destined, magical, meant to be.

That makes me so very happy.

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.
