Claiming Cure’s Cover
With most of the covers the Always Awesome Amanda Kelsey has crafted for me in the cyborg universe, the dominant color on the cover serves as an overlay over the image of the cyborg depicted.
Drift’s gray skin looks greenish on the cover of Drift Would. Strike’s skin looks fiery red on the cover of Strike Zone.
Cure’s gray skin, ironically, looks…tanned on the cover of Claiming Cure.
(grins)
That wasn’t planned. It just…happened.

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
***
Claiming Cure is a standalone Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features two skilled medics determined to ignore the toe-curling attraction between them, a perilous impossible mission, and foes seeking to ensure they never heal another being ever again.

Claiming Cure And Ironic Names
Cure, the chief medic on the Dauntless, yes, named himself Cure.
(grins)
That is his goal in life – to cure other cyborgs.
Cyra, his medic contact on Cancri B, knows that IS Cure’s true name.
Her friend, however, believes it is a joke.
*
“Your healer does not have a personality of a robot.” Her friend grinned. “Not if he uses Cure as his tag. Cure. For a healer.” She laughed again.
*
(grins)
Cure might not have been the best name for a medic.

Grid Locked – Cyborgs: Endgame
I’m currently crafting the first draft of Grid Locked (likely releasing in March) and I’m referring to it with my Dear Wonderful Hubby as Cyborgs: Endgame. (grins) That’s the vibe of this story.
I thought of Drift Would as Rogue One. Drift and Roshini are involved in a ‘doomed’ mission. They and their teams expected to die during it. Yet they engaged in it anyway. Because it was the right thing to do.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I, both music lovers, joke that we have a song for everything. We’ve listened to so many songs over the years. It is easy to find one with applicable lyrics.
The same is true for TV Shows and Movies. We’ve watched so many. It is easy to find one that has similarities to my stories.

Drift Would
A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.
***
Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.
The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.
When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.
She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.
Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.
Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.
A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.
She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.

Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

The Next Cynthia Sax Release
My next release will be Claiming Cure, the third exciting story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series. It will release in November.
This story happens during the same timeline as Drift Would. When Drift and Cure arrive on Cancri B, they split up. Drift meets with his contact and Cure meets with his.
Cure believes he knows all there is to know about his contact.
He is VERY wrong. (grins)

The Day Before Release Day
Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, releases tomorrow (tonight if you’ve pre-ordered it)! Woot!
Today, I am doing my usual day before release day thing.
I’m worrying that I didn’t upload the files properly to booksellers. (I HAVE uploaded them properly. I’ve verified this about one hundred times.)
I’m trying to distract myself by working on Claiming Cure, the next story. (This distraction won’t work.)
And I’m obsessively checking the pre-order numbers, wondering why a couple of my awesome reading buddies haven’t pre-ordered this story.
Yep, not healthy writer behaviors at all. (laughs)

Drift Would And Connected Stories
Drift Would can definitely be read on its own.
But I know many reading buddies like to reread stories to ‘get in the mood’ for a new release.
The best story to reread is, of course, Strike Zone, the 1st core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series. The events in Strike Zone lead to the events in Drift Would.
Intrepid and his Valkyrie appear in Drift Would so you might also wish to reread Intrepid Encounter.
Other than that… I think you’re solid. (smiles)
I can’t wait for you to read Drift Would!

Drift Would And The Continued Search For Genetic Matches
Cyborgs share almost everything. They’ve been relaying conversations and overheard communications with humans and humanoids to their millions of brethren.
Because those brethren are hoping to find their genetic matches, the beings they were manufactured to be with, protect, love. And cyborgs can recognize those ‘fated mates’ by their voices.
Their REAL voices. (grins)
We all hope for love. The cyborgs are actively searching for it.

Drift Would – Fourth Scene Of The First Chapter
Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, releases next week! Woot!
Today, I’m sharing the fourth and final scene from the very first chapter.
You can read the first scene here:
https://tasteofcyn.com/?p=12015
***
“This is where we leave you, Pilot Drift, Medic Cure.” The female slowed her ship’s speed even more and shifted its trajectory. “It should be smooth flying to Syndiculous 5. The Ministers of Intergalactic Relations have redirected all other flights.”
Strike and his female were aware of the urgency of their mission.
“Thank you for your assistance.” Drift dipped his head.
“It was an honor, Pilot Drift.” The female smiled and ended the communication. The image of her face disappeared from the main viewscreen.
“She would be a great genetic match for one of our brethren.” Drift liked the female.
“Your conversation was relayed via the transmission lines.” Cure pointed his handheld at him. “None of our brethren reacted to her voice.”
Cyborgs identified their genetic matches though voice or scent or touch.
“That’s our loss.” Drift shook his head and increased his speed.
“Nanocybotic production is increasing.” Cure tapped his fingertips against his device.
There was a 95.2369 percent probability the medic was registering that response in his databases.
“My nanocybotics project I’ll soon damage myself.” Drift chuckled. “They don’t have confidence in my flying abilities.”
“Our nanocybotics respond to our processing.” Cure corrected him. “You project you might damage yourself.”
“The possibility of crashing is part of the fun of flying.” Drift laughed with pure joy. They were traveling at organic brain-spinning speeds.
He wasn’t concerned about dying. Frag. He had faced death millions of times during Humanoid Alliance training and the subsequent battles he’d fought for those horrid beings.
Living was more of a priority for him. And he never felt more alive than when he was flying all-out in a ship optimized for speed.
“You speak as though you’re damaged.” Cure pointed the handheld at him again. “But your scans are within spec.”
Drift laughed harder, and he gunned the modified freighter’s engines.
Moments passed.
Drift flew with no restrictions other than the capabilities of his ship. He was enjoying himself.
Cure, however, was quiet. That was unlike him.
“What’re you processing?” Drift darted a glance at the medic.
“It isn’t vital to the mission.” Cure stared at the main viewscreen.
It might not be vital to the mission, but Drift projected it would be interesting. And it would relay more intel about his partner. “Tell me.”
Silence stretched.
Drift decreased the probability Cure would share his processing to 0.2358 percent.
“On the Dauntless—” The medic surprised him by speaking. “—when Captain asked about my contact on Cancri B, I relayed on the transmission line that the medic there said he’d dealt with scanners with more empathy.”
Their topic of chatter widened Drift’s eyes.
Cure wasn’t the type of cyborg to dwell on a conversation.
“I processed that as a compliment.” The medic’s tone contained certainty that he was correct. “Grid processed it as an insult.”
“Humans and humanoids value empathy in their medics.” Drift deleted all the humor from his voice. It was a serious situation for Cure, and he would treat it that way. “There’s a high probability your friend was teasing you.”
“That medic is not my friend.” The emotion in Cure’s response caused Drift to blink. “I’ll play that part of our communication.”
Drift slowed their ship’s speed. His instincts told him he’d need to give the recording a significant part of his processing power.
“You would say that to a patient?” That recorded comment was followed by a simulated snort. “I’ve dealt with scanners with more empathy.”
“I would tell that patient there was a 99.8923 percent probability she’d be dead within two planet rotations.” Cure shrugged. “It was the truth.”
Most cyborgs had faced the prospect of near-certain death at least once in their long lifespans. They had been manufactured to fight battles and death was a significant part of war.
“Humans and humanoids process differently.” They hadn’t been fabricated with the knowledge others viewed them as being disposable. “The statement was an insult.” Drift paused. “And it was delivered in a manufactured voice.”
“I process he utilizes a manufactured voice.” Cure’s words were, once again, scrubbed of all -emotion.
“Are you 100.0000 percent certain the medic is a he?” Drift didn’t share that certainty.
“The attributes of the voice he chose align with those of a male speaker in 86.1482 percent of all instances.” The medic blasted him with data. “88.2235 percent of beings choose a voice that originates from the same biological sex as they do.”
“You’ve assumed the medic is male.” Drift had, in contrast, received confirmation from Strike that his contact was male.
“That’s the logical conclusion.” Cure returned his attention to his handheld.
The universe and the beings within it were rarely logical.
There was a high probability the medic would soon be reminded of that fact.
Drift kept that projection to himself.
He increased the modified freighter’s speed and threw himself into the circuit-buzzing thrill of going very, very fast.

Drift Would And Road Trip Food
Nourishment bars were packed for Drift and Cure’s mission aka dangerous road trip across space. Cyborgs don’t need beverage but some containers of beverage were packed with the hope they’d find their genetic matches.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I always pack beverages and snacks for our road trips also. We like having the option of not stopping anywhere and snacking tends to keep us awake.
We freeze bottles of water and drinking boxes of juice. These serve as freezer packs for our coolers. Then we have unfrozen bottles of water and cans of juices/soda/pop for drinking while the frozen beverages thaw.
Our snacks are usually little bits of things. Jelly Belly jelly beans and peanut M&Ms give us sugar boosts. We like blueberries and strawberries, assorted nuts, celery sticks, apples, raisins, dried cranberries, other nibblies. A variety of taste profiles keep us awake and makes the trip more interesting.
What do you bring on road trips?

Drift Would
A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.
***
Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.
The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.
When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.
She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.
Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.
Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.
A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.
She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.
***
Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a cyborg who loves to break speed records, a human spy with a talent for changing her appearance, and a foe intent on killing them both.
