Throwback Thursday – Chasing Mayhem
Mayhem is, hands down, the wildest cyborg I’ve ever written about. Truth (from Testing Truth) causes chaos. But Mayhem lives in chaos.
Mayhem needs a bada$$ female to keep up with him and Imee is definitely that being. She has survived situations that would have killed others. And she did that starting at a young age.
Chasing Mayhem is also our introduction to Kralj, the Ruler of the Refuge and the all powerful, all knowing unlikely hero of Dark Thoughts. Kralj is a bit scary. Okay, he’s more than a bit scary. (grins) But I absolutely adore him.
Wild. Free. Hers.
Mayhem has spent his lengthy lifespan obeying the Humanoid Alliance’s rules. Finally free from their cruel control, the cyborg warrior plans to cause chaos. He infiltrates a remote settlement, provokes the savage locals until they want him dead, and allows himself to be captured by the sexiest little Retriever he has ever laid his mechanically-enhanced eyes on.
Imee’s sole mission in life is to keep her family alive. To do this, she must hunt rebels, returning them to the Humanoid Alliance’s evil clutches where they will be executed. She doesn’t allow herself to feel anything for her targets…until she meets a tall, muscular cyborg with wild hair and even wilder eyes.
With his sure hands, laughing lips and erotic holds, Mayhem makes Imee’s body sizzle and her resistance melt. Their love is doomed. She must deliver the warrior to his death or she’ll place her family’s safety at risk. But she can’t resist him.
Imee soon discovers that Mayhem, life, and love are never predictable.
Chasing Mayhem is Book 6 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STANDALONE story.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Fire
I LOVE dragons. (grins) You might have noticed that. The Dracheons are alien versions of dragons. They don’t shift into full dragon form but they do breathe fire, they have scales and they are extremely primitive and possessive.
Dare, the hero of Dark Fire, is a Dracheon warrior. His damsel fully capable of getting her own self out of distress is Faylee. She provokes the beastly passion in him.
Dark Fire
What the Beast wants, the Beast gets.
Dare’s savage nature has made him an outcast among his kind. The silver-scaled Dracheon warrior can’t control his inner beast. It’s too strong. When his primitive instincts told him his destined mate was on Carinae E, he had no choice. He had to travel to the outlaw planet. There, he hoped to meet a female powerful enough to survive his Drache.
He finds Faylee, a delicate little human.
Faylee is the best thief on the planet. Everyone she encounters mistakes her for a young boy…except for a tall, shiny warrior from off-planet. When she gazes into Dare’s flame-filled eyes, he makes her feel, for the first time, like a desirable female. The fire-breathing male has her yearning for hot kisses, fierce embraces, and a future filled with love. She doesn’t realize mating with him might be the last thing she ever does.
Dare’s beast isn’t the only danger on the planet. An enemy from the past has returned and he’s determined to stop Dare and Faylee…permanently. They’ll need luck and the assistance of every warrior in the Refuge to stay alive.
Dark Fire is a STANDALONE SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.

Throwback Thursday – Defying Death
What would you do for one moment of happiness?
Death, the cyborg hero of Defying Death, would trade his life for the opportunity to meet, talk with, touch his female, the one being genetically compatible with him. His past has been dominated by pain, loss, death. He has never known true joy, would do anything to experience it.
Tifara’s goal in life is to prevent death. She is determined to find cures for any and all viruses. Her own happiness has been pushed to the side…until she meets Death.
Defying Death
He’ll risk it all for one moment of happiness.
Cyborgs don’t show emotion. Death learned that lesson early in his long lifespan. To survive, he hides his fierce passions behind a stoic wall. He calls no warrior friend. He never admits to caring for any being.
Even the human female he’s destined to love.
Tifara is Death’s obsession, his sole opportunity for happiness, to express the all-consuming passion burning brightly inside him. He’ll do anything to obtain the curvaceous medic: defy a direct order, abduct Tifara from her battle station, and wage war on his fellow cyborgs.
To earn her love, he’ll have to risk much, much more.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Strength
I’m currently writing the first draft of B Free, a story featuring B, a B Model cyborg. B Models are HUGE and B reminds me physically of Balvan, the Refuge’s great green gatekeeper, the hero of Dark Strength.
Balvan is a gentle giant…when he rescues tiny hurt creatures like his beloved puffkers. He’s not so gentle when he’s protecting his mate, Elyce. He happily stomps on her enemies’ heads, relishes hearing their skulls crack under his big boots.
Elyce is a strong female. She has faced some extreme hardships in her past, has impressively survived all that trauma. But we all need safeguarding from time to time and Elyce is no exception. She finds a powerful and loving protector in Balvan.
Dark Strength
The Bigger They Are, The Harder They Fall.
Balvan, the Refuge’s Gatekeeper, is huge, green, and has a reputation for crushing skulls. He’s a modified humanoid, genetically designed to be the ultimate warrior. One of a kind and considered monstrous by many, he never expects to find his mate, the one female meant for him.
Elyce, snatched from her home half a solar cycle ago, has finally escaped her brutal captors. She arrives at the Refuge barely alive. Only a blood transfusion from the largest male she has ever seen will save her life. But it will also bind her to him forever. Staring up, up, up at him, she wonders why she wants to be free. His gentle touch revives yearnings she thought dead. His lips set her skin ablaze. His massive muscles make her feel safe.
That feeling could be an illusion. Elyce’s captors want their slave back and they won’t stop until they have her. To give his mate her freedom, Balvan might be forced to give up everything he has – his role as the Gatekeeper, Elyce’s love, and his life.
Dark Strength is a STANDALONE Alien SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes violent universe.

Throwback Thursday – Crash And Burn
Crash and Burn is the most emotionally grueling story I’ve ever written. It tore my heart out while crafting it and many reading buddies felt a similar way while reading it. This story is a three hanky read.
But it is a special story. Crash and Burn is a romance so, of course, it has a happy ever after for the main characters. Crash and Safyre have a unique relationship and a love tested by adversity. They battle against the odds and they also tend battle each other. (grins) They’re both strong-willed and have their own missions to complete.
Rage and Joan from Releasing Rage make a brief appearance in this story, as do many other cyborgs and their females.
Crash was manufactured to be one of the best warriors in the universe. The cyborg has spent many human lifespans fighting the enemy. But, unlike his battle-loving brethren, he doesn’t enjoy killing. When he escapes the Humanoid Alliance, he vows to never end another life.
Then he meets Safyre, an infuriating human female, and he considers breaking his vow.
Safyre will do anything to save her friend, the being she loves like a sister. She’ll ravish a huge hunky cyborg, kiss his best friend, and invoke scorching hot desires the male never realized he could feel. Dark soulful eyes, a quick wit, and a tempestuous passion won’t divert her from her mission.
Love, and a planet-destroying weapon, however, might stop her permanently.

Throwback Thursday – Breathing Vapor
A buddy recently asked me why Breathing Vapor is the second story in the cyborg series and not Crash And Burn.
The reason for that is because I wanted to explore the civilization on Tau Ceti before seeing its destruction. I wanted to learn about its inhabitants, care for them, view them as living, loving beings.
I also wanted to show that not all members of the Humanoid Alliance agree with what their leaders were doing. There are dissidents like Mira, the heroine. There are beings quietly or not-so-quietly trying to make a difference, make things better.
The Humanoid Alliance ARE evil and they have to be defeated. But some of their members are worthy of redemption, of trust, of love.
Breathing Vapor
Vapor is the most advanced cyborg the Humanoid Alliance has ever developed. He’s a finely honed weapon, a warrior without parallel, half man and half machine. No lock can contain him. No being can stop him. Whatever he wants, he takes.
He wants Mira Breazeal, the Designer’s daughter.
She’s his one temptation, his sexy target. Vapor shouldn’t crave her caresses, steal her kisses, make her scream with ecstasy. The cyborgs want her dead and they would question his loyalty if he didn’t kill her. The humans would shoot him on sight if he dared to touch her.
Their love is forbidden. Their desire could be lethal. One human and one cyborg will risk everything for a moment of passion.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Thoughts
When Kralj, the all-knowing, all-powerful hero of Dark Thoughts, first appeared in one of the cyborg romances (Chasing Mayhem), I knew he would, some day, be featured in his own story. This enemy-eating modified humanoid was too fascinating, too mysterious not to investigate.
His heroine, Dita, is 100.0000% human yet is fully his match. She is the one being he has encountered in his long lifespan whose mind he can’t read, can’t control.
This is a true enemy-to-lovers romance. The two of them try to kill each other. Their love is that passionate, that wild. No rules apply.
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 – Releasing Rage
I re-read Releasing Rage, the very first Cyborg Romance I published, on the weekend and stars, I love this story.
I love Rage, how unfiltered and feral and raw his emotions are.
I love his relationship with Crash and Gap, how he secretly cares for those two warriors.
I love Joan, his fearless female, and how she understands Rage, perhaps because she feels as much fury for the injustices in the universe.
The two of them seem, at first, like an unlikely couple yet they work. There is genuine, lasting love between them.
If you haven’t yet read Releasing Rage, it is currently free! If you have read it and you enjoyed it, I hope you will recommend it to one of your reading buddies.
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 – Testing Truth
Testing Truth was such a fun story to write.
Truth, the hero, has been causing chaos for others since the beginning of the series. This cyborg warrior is rarely serious. He loves dangerous missions.
Princess Nancy is accustomed to chaos and is well able to keep pace with him. Her entourage, her makeshift family, easily supplies the drama and excitement Truth constantly seeks.
Their assignment is to save one of Princess Nancy’s brothers. The odds of surviving that mission are low…which doesn’t dissuade Truth at all from joining their team. He likes those types of odds. (grins)
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.
