Holding Hoarse And Being Worthy Of Love
I believe EVERYONE is worthy of love. (big hugs) We don’t have to change or achieve our definitions of success or do something special to be deserving of caring.
Not everyone BELIEVES they are worthy of love, however. That’s a normal feeling and it is very different from genuinely not being deserving of love.
Hoarse, the C Model hero of Holding Hoarse, doesn’t believe he warrants caring…yet. He is working toward that goal when he meets his female. But that goal is one he has set himself. You and I both know he was already deserving of love during Passion Surge, the previous story. He merely didn’t believe that.
As many of us don’t believe it. That’s natural and okay but it isn’t reality. We DO deserve love.
Many people also aren’t ready for lasting, permanent relationships. They might not be in that emotional space or they might have other goals they are focused on.
This is often the case of the characters in my stories. They are worthy of love (though they might not believe that) but they aren’t yet ready for love. They might get to that point…eventually or (if they’re minor characters) they might be super happy on their own.
You ARE worthy of love, my friend. Don’t ever doubt that. You don’t have to craft perfect dolls, as Hoarse believes, to warrant caring. You already deserve it!

Holding Hoarse
This cyborg warrior WILL become worthy of love.
* * *
Hoarse hasn’t found his female, the one being manufactured for him. There is only one reason he can process for his lack of success—he isn’t yet worthy of claiming a female.
The big C Model is determined to change that status. He considers ulu, or doll, fabrication to be an essential part of mate preparation. Seeking to hone his skills, he contacts a reclusive doll maker and asks her to train him.
He doesn’t realize the being he is sharing his deficiencies with is his destined mate.
Arlicia desires a male whose face she has never seen. Her new trainee’s persistence, intelligence, and curiosity warrant admiration. His deep voice evokes visions of passionate kisses and heated embraces. His large hands cause her to quiver with wanting.
Before their professional relationship ends, she wants to rendezvous with Hoarse. The curious doll maker hopes for a glimpse of the huge warrior.
When a cyborg intent on being the perfect mate meets the female who knows all his secrets, garments are shed, illusions shatter, and beings die.
***
Holding Hoarse is a short, light, companion story in the Cyborg Space Exploration series and is meant to be read after Testing Truth.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance featuring an intense C Model warrior, an understanding doll maker, and packs of imperfect toys seeking loving homes.

Holding Hoarse And Harvest
In Holding Hoarse, the children are participating in a joyous end of harvest celebration. End of harvest is a common celebration in my stories.
Why?
Because end of harvest is celebrated in almost all cultures, all religions right here on Earth. (Thanksgiving is the primary North American celebration of the harvest.) We all need to eat. Much of our food comes from crops.
Being a former farmgal, I understand how much hard work harvest is and what a relief, what a source of happiness a solid harvest is. Many factors influence crop yields. A good harvest feels like a blessing and is certainly a reason for celebration.
I doubt this would change on other inhabitable planets. Alien species need some sort of energy inputs or nourishment. I suspect much of that would come from plants and, if the planet has seasons/temperature changes, there would likely be an ideal time to harvest those plants.
Then it would be party time. (laughs) It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a being benefiting from a good harvest, would be in want of a celebration.

Holding Hoarse – Friends To Lovers AND Instalove/Fated To Mate
Holding Hoarse, my gift this year to you, is both a friends to lovers romance AND an instalove/fated to mate/love at first sight romance.
How is that possible?
Cyborgs recognize their genetic matches through their voices, their scents, their touch. They usually know within moments that a female (or male or other) is theirs.
Hoarse, however, doesn’t hear Arlicia’s voice, smell her scent, touch her right away. He originally reaches out to her through text communications and interacts with her thousands of times via solely the written word before speaking with her.
During that time, they become friends…of sorts. There’s a fascination, a mutual admiration, an interest between them but it doesn’t become lust until they speak.
Before that first conversation occurs, Hoarse, as a friend does, relays some of his…inadequacies to Arlicia. This complicates the leap from friends to lovers.

Interview With J.K. Coi
I sat down (virtually) with J.K. Coi for a short interview. J.K. Coi’s latest release is Loving Lord Spy, an absolutely delicious WWII romance included in Once Upon a Christmas: A Wynter Family Saga, a Historical and Contemporary Holiday Romance Anthology.
Cynthia Sax: I know you were super excited about contributing to Once Upon a Christmas. What makes this anthology special?
J.K. Coi: I love this anthology for a lot of reasons. The first is because the four of us have been good friends for a long time, and we’ve been hoping for an opportunity to collaborate, but since our styles and genres are pretty different across the board, we didn’t have a chance until the idea of doing this family saga spanning different time periods came to us.
I also love the stories because they’re all so wonderfully written, full of hope and the Christmas spirit. They just feel good to read.
Cynthia Sax: Where did you get the idea for Loving Lord Spy?
J.K. Coi: I LOVE LOVE LOVE the movie An Affair to Remember with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. It’s one of my all-time favorites, and so when I was thinking about how to put together the novella for this anthology, it immediately came to mind maybe because of the time period I would be writing in. So I took a little bit of Cinderella, and a little bit of this movie, and came up with Loving Lord Spy.
Cynthia Sax: Where is Loving Lord Spy set?
J.K. Coi: This anthology is exciting because it tells stories of the Wynter family through a couple of different time periods. My novella takes place at the end of WWII, and I hadn’t written in this genre before. I love a challenge and I realized while writing this that I would like to write more stories in this time period.
Cynthia Sax: Having read your story, I would LOVE if you wrote more stories in that time period. It really fascinates me.
What creates problems between David and Winnie?
J.K. Coi: The conflict between David and Winnie comes from their responsibilities. They don’t have a lot of time together. They fall in love hard and fast without knowing a lot about one another, and they’ve both made commitments to the war, so until that’s over, they can’t possibly think about a future together. Then again, so much can happen between now and then… and while they’re separated, both of them learn things that challenge what they thought they knew about the other.
Cynthia Sax: Thank you for joining us today, J.K.!

*****************************************************************************
The holidays are a time for family, celebration—and the Dukes of Ravenglass to fall in love. Spend the Christmas season with the Wynter family, as the Dukes of Ravenglass find their happily-ever-afters in this delightful, heartfelt collection that spans from the Regency era to the present day.
In A Price Above Rubies by Maggie Robinson, set in the Regency era, paid companion Helen Lowe doesn’t know the man she shares her first-ever dance—and first-ever kiss—is Gabriel Wynter, a reclusive, notorious duke. When Helen flees after being exposed, she leaves behind something of far greater value than a glass slipper. Can Gabriel find her, return it, and finally open his heart?
In the Victorian-era set, Never Have I Ever Fallen in Love with a Duke by Tiffany Clare, Alexander Wynter has a problem—his best friend’s younger sister grew up. When he agreed to help Emily MacCallon make her debut, he didn’t expect the beautiful, alluring woman before him—or for her to lead him on such a merry chase. Alexander knows one thing: the only man she’ll be kissing forever and ever is him.
In the World War II-set, Loving Lord Spy by J.K. Coi, Winnie Jenkins, a combat nurse, and Lord David Wynter, an injured British spy, fall in love at the worst possible time. Each of them owes a duty to their country and must go their separate ways. They promise that when the war is finally over, they’ll meet in Hyde Park on Christmas morning…but agree that if one of them doesn’t make it, the other won’t seek out the reason why. Can they keep their appointment? Or will secrets, lies, and the perils of war keep them apart?
A missed connection gets a second chance in the present-day contemporary romance, Saved by the Belle by Elyssa Patrick. Seven years ago, Kit Wynter met the woman of his dreams. Even after all this time, he’s never been able to forget the American girl who captured his heart. When Belle Sweeney answers his ad—for she, too, never forgot him—it feels like there’s something still there. Spending the holiday at Ravenglass Abbey is the perfect opportunity to figure out if this is love.
