Interviewed At Divine Magazine
I was interviewed at Divine Magazine!
Here’s a snippet…
How has your writing evolved since your first book?
Cynthia Sax – When I first started writing, I was all about the plot. I felt a need to have a completely different plot to every other story I’ve read. With thousands of stories being published every day, that’s almost impossible to do.
Today, I’m all about emotion, about making readers FEEL. That’s my number one task—to ensure I move them emotionally. If I do that, I’m happy with the story.

Warlord Sky
No one grounds a barbarian warrior.
Qulpa, a Chamele warrior, lost everyone he loved in the brutal Succession Wars. Flying is the only thing that brings him joy. Serving as his team’s pilot is the sole duty he has left. Then a horrific crash leaves him injured and unable to fly.
The one being who can help him is also his gerel, the female destined to be his. She insists she doesn’t feel their connection. Qulpa is certain his beautiful mate is lying and nothing will stop him from finding out why.
Nayan knows the injured barbarian is her warrior, her one chance at a forever bond. His dominance makes her feel safe. His gentle touch inflames her passion. His kisses scorch her very soul. The tall muscular male tempts her as no one else has.
But she has a deadly secret. If it’s exposed, her injured male will lose more than his ability to fly. Both of them will die. She can’t take that risk, not for him, not for them, not for a lifespan filled with love.

Warlord Sky is a STANDALONE Alien Barbarian SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes violent universe.

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?

Releasing Rage – Mother’s Day Snippet
Sunday is Mother’s Day in North America. I’ve been sharing Mom-themed snippets all week. Of course, this wouldn’t be complete without an excerpt from Releasing Rage. (grin)
We created offspring, female.
Joan struggled to absorb Rage’s words.
She’d reviewed the research gathered from the breeding programs. There had been zero offspring conceived. No pairings had been successful.
The scientists had expected the breeding programs to work. The genetic blueprint for cyborg mechanics had been inserted into the DNA sequence. The nanocybotics had been modified, allowing for the expansion of their parts as cyborg offspring matured, ensuring both man and machine grew in concert.
But the very nature of the nanocybotics prevented conception. As Rage had explained the planet rotation they’d met, a cyborg’s nanocybotics viewed any fertilized egg as a damaged egg. They ‘repaired’ it, returning the egg to its former unfertilized state.
In a laboratory, a scientist could administer a suppressor immediately before fertilization. That was too complex to be coded into DNA.
Faced with those facts, Joan had realized she’d never have offspring with Rage. She’d accepted that future, thought herself content with one big C Model cyborg to love and care for.
Now they’d have a son.
“You’re certain?” she asked. It was too incredible to be believed.
“We’re certain.” There was no doubt in Doc’s voice.
Surge nodded.
“Our offspring is inside you, female.” Rage rushed to her side, a silly smile lighting his normally grim face. “You’ve made me the happiest cyborg in the universe.”
He scooped her into his arms, scanning blanket and all, and he spun. The chambers’ lights whizzed around them. She clung to his neck, kicked her feet, and laughed, his exuberance feeding hers.
She hadn’t inadvertently killed the male she loved. She was giving him a son.

Releasing Rage – Cure For A Book Rut
We all get into book ruts. That’s part of reading.
I usually break out of a book rut by trying new-to-me subgenres of romance and writers.
Insomnia Book Club broke out by reading Releasing Rage. Woot!
“Releasing Rage by Cynthia Sax sounded a bit different from the books that I normally read. I have read plenty of paranormal books but never one that revolved around cyborgs. Maybe I got lucky with this book in particular but either way it got me out of the infamous book rut! The e-book was actually hard to put down. Thankyou Mrs. Sax!”

Releasing Rage And The SFR Brigade Showcase

Chasing Mayhem, my sixth story in the cyborg series, is releasing on September 13th (you can pre-order it on Amazon US here – https://www.amazon.com/Chasing-Mayhem-Cyborg-Sizzle-Book-ebook/dp/B01IRPO9WY#nav-subnav ). I’m super excited about this!
If you’re new to this series, Releasing Rage is now free at all booksellers.
Here is an excerpt from Releasing Rage
She stepped into the firewall square. The door behind her closed and she authorized the interior door to open.
A buzz swept over her. No, not simply over her. Into her. She gasped, her inhalation of air drawing more of this unknown presence inside her.
It was too much, almost suffocating. Joan swayed, lightheaded. “Do not faint. Do not faint,” she repeated to herself, closing her eyes.
The rolling under her feet gradually stopped. She opened her eyes and wished she hadn’t. Crimson spray covered everywhere she looked. Gore was splattered into the farthest corners, hanging from the ceiling. Cleaner bots scrubbed the walls and floor.
This was why she felt dizzy, she reasoned. She smelled and sensed this butchery.
C899321, the being she had been told was responsible, stood in his uploading dock, a cable inserted into his nape, his towering form naked, covered with blood, his long black hair dripping with it.
He turned his head, locked his gaze with hers and she sucked in her breath. There were worlds of agony, of rage, in those bright blue eyes. This was no rational, logic-driven cyborg. This was a man, an animal, crazed by bloodlust and pain.
“They thought to pacify me with the use of a human female?” he thundered, his deep gravelly voice clawing across her skin, awakening parts in her she didn’t realize slept. “I’d kill you before I allowed you to touch me.”
This insult didn’t hurt her the way he’d intended. Joan knew she wasn’t the slim tiny female males desired. She was solidly built, good breeding stock, as her mother had once said.
She discarded his words and focused on the torment in his tones. He hurt. Horrifically. Her fingers twitched, the urge to reach out to him, to comfort him, tremendous. Judging by the flex of his powerful biceps and thigh muscles, by the anger radiating from him, he wouldn’t appreciate that response.
He also wouldn’t listen to any command she issued. A reprimand, verbal or physical, would add to his hostility. Some being had already tried to restrain him and failed. The reportedly unbreakable wrist and ankle cuffs attached to the frame of the uploading dock had been shattered, rendered useless.
Joan discarded four solar cycles’ worth of theory on how to handle malfunctioning cyborgs, realizing now that the academy experts knew nothing.
Her late father, however, had taught her how to deal with wild beasts.
“I would never touch you without your permission.” She lowered her gaze, showing submission, recognizing C899321 as the dominant male he was. He’d seek to harm any aggressor, to protect himself and his territory. If she wasn’t female, she suspected she’d already be dead.
“I also would never hurt you.” Joan stuffed a couple of cleaning cloths into her pockets and dropped to her knees, into a puddle of red. The moisture soaked through her flight suit. “I’m here to serve you, to clean you.”

Sci-Fi Or Paranormal Romance? + Contest
I’m at the ARe blog today
http://www.arecafe.com/cafe-news/scifi-or-paranormal-romance-which-genre-is-for-you/
talking about some of the (reader) differences between SciFi and Paranormal Romance (as I’m one of those rare creatures who write and read both).
I’m also giving away a copy of Warlord’s Bounty. I don’t normally give away copies of new releases or heck, any releases, as I write a lot of freebie extra scenes and flash fiction but a dear reading buddy requested I give away a copy of Warlord’s Bounty and I couldn’t say no.
By Cynthia Sax
Now Available From Ellora’s Cave
The bigger the bounty, the more dangerous the fugitive.
Khan, a Chamele warlord, has a huge bounty on his head. His enemy is willing to pay an outrageous amount to secure him. Khan wants to be apprehended, especially if the bounty hunter capturing him is a brown-eyed female with razor-sharp daggers and an even sharper tongue. He’ll allow her to subdue him sexually, his passion and prowess not inhibited by restraints, and when she collects her bounty, he’ll collect his revenge, killing his enemy and claiming his little bounty hunter forever.
Zeta doesn’t do forever. She captures the worst scum in the galaxy and trades them for credits. Khan is fierce and sexy and the most dominant male she has ever encountered, but he is also a fugitive, and once she sates herself with his body, she’ll betray him. It is her job.
