Throwback Thursday – Containing Malice

By Cynthia Sax on November 21, 2024

If one of your favorite cyborg romances is Releasing Rage, I suspect you’ll love Containing Malice also.

Malice has been trapped in an underground Humanoid Alliance laboratory. He doesn’t realize his cyborg brethren are free. He doesn’t realize cyborgs have genetic matches. He doesn’t realize they can have kids.

And he definitely doesn’t believe in hope.

He’s angry and frustrated and in pain and a significant portion of that emotional turmoil is directed at the human female forced to experiment on him.

Containing Malice

This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.

***

Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.

His enemy has now added a new weapon to their arsenal—a tiny human medic with soft hands and a delectable scent. She experiments on him multiple times a shift, delivering pain…and frustration.

He wants her. He also seeks retribution.

Once Malice frees himself, he plans to achieve both of his goals, taking Medic Illona captive and ending her research…permanently.

Illona is as much a prisoner as the cyborgs she experiments on. Since her arrival at the Human Alliance’s secret laboratory, she has carefully, stealthily, crafted a plot to free her test subjects. To conceal her covert activities, the medic has been forced to harm beings rather than heal them.

The being she has damaged the most is also the cyborg she fiercely desires— Malice, a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed C Model with massive hands and a voice deeper than space. He hates her, has good reason to do so, and, when he’s freed, there’s a high probability he’ll kill her.

Illona will take that risk to ensure he survives.

***

Containing Malice is a STANDALONE enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It is the first of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Throwback Thursday – Testing Truth

By Cynthia Sax on November 14, 2024

If you’re looking for a lighter (for me – grins) story with a fairytale feel, Testing Truth is the story for you!

Truth is a sh*t disturbing cyborg I can’t help but love. His female is a PRINCESS! Sure, she’s not the heir to the throne but she is royalty and she has the big gowns and tiaras to prove it.

They team up for a dangerous mission that will change the universe forever.

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.

Throwback Thursday – Defying Death

By Cynthia Sax on June 20, 2024

Facing death changes a being. And the cyborgs have faced so much death they won’t ever be ‘normal’ by human standards.

Death, the hero of Defying Death, is no exception to that. He has faced death and delivered death so many times he chose to call himself Death.

Death is all he has ever known.

Until he meets the curvy human female destined to be his.

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

By Cynthia Sax on June 13, 2024

Balvan is physically the biggest hero I’ve ever written. He is a giant of a male. And he was designed for war. He loves to crush the skulls of his enemies under his big boots.

Kralj, the ruler of the Refuge, has wisely given Balvan the role of gatekeeper to the settlement. Balvan guards those gates fiercely.

As he guards Elyce, his human female, fiercely when she finds him.

Elyce’s enemies are dead. They merely don’t know that yet. (grins)

Dark Strength Alien Romance

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

By Cynthia Sax on June 6, 2024

Crash And Burn is a three hanky read.

There is the expected romantic Happy Ever After for the main couple. The romantic Happy Ever Afters for past couples (or more), of course, also still hold.

But everyone else is at risk.

It is war. And loss is an unfortunate part of war.

Crash And Burn is an absolute favorite story for some readers. Yep, they liked it more than they liked Releasing Rage.

But for other readers…well…it is a challenging story.

And it is, hands down, no comparison, that most heart-shredding story I’ve ever written.

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

By Cynthia Sax on May 23, 2024

Breathing Vapor is a true enemies-to-lovers cyborg romance.

Vapor, the cyborg hero, plans to kill Mira, the human heroine. She is the daughter of their evil designer. Vapor views her as everything that is cruel and hateful in the universe.

But he is also EXTREMELY attracted to her. He wants her desperately. And he is a bit…no, very MUCH obsessed with her.

He doesn’t realize, however, that everything he thinks he knows about her is a lie.

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 – B Free

By Cynthia Sax on March 21, 2024

I LOVE B Free.

It features the cyborg world’s version of zombies (the Resurrected), a HUGE cyborg warrior who is the very last of his kind, and a human futuristic archeologist determined to study him.

This story is SO much fun!


B Free

B is the last remaining B Model cyborg. All of his brethren, the beings he trained with, fought with, cared deeply for, have perished.

Or so he believes.

When he intercepts a communication mentioning the existence of one of his kind, he has to investigate its source. The message could be a trap set by his enemies. He’ll take that risk if it secures him the companionship he requires to be fully functional.

What he finds is a daring brown-eyed female who activates all his systems. She proudly proclaims she’s a researcher, brandishing that information like a weapon before her. He wants to kiss the sass off her beautiful face, protect her from the dangers around them, claim her forever.

Quinn is on a quest to locate the mechanics of an early-version cyborg. She believes the information captured within that frame will give her valuable insights into the past.

When her mission goes zombie-like beings levels of wrong, she comes face-to-face with a living, breathing B Model. He has big hands, a primitive countenance, and stern hard lips crafted for kissing.

She doesn’t trust him. And she doesn’t have time to indulge her desires.

Their shared enemies are chasing them, would kill to get their precious specimens back. One minor mistake could reduce B and Quinn to a mere line in the databases of history.

Throwback Thursday – Baring Grudge

By Cynthia Sax on March 14, 2024

Baring Grudge is the most explosive cyborg romance I’ve ever written. (grins)

Both the heroine and the hero and the heroine’s found family member (a teenage girl) LOVE making, setting and detonating explosives. They blow sh*t up both literally and figuratively.

And that is fun for everyone involved.


Baring Grudge

No one in the universe is more determined than a cyborg warrior tracking his female.

***

Grudge, a C Model cyborg, has been assigned a mission – safeguard a Humanoid Alliance space station for his kind. Honor was once all he had, and he is determined to fulfill his duty.

That resolve is tested when a tiny human female enters the space station and sets the prettiest little explosives the warrior has ever seen. She is Grudge’s genetic match, the one being manufactured for him. He wants to touch her, kiss her, claim her in all ways, but first he has to stop her from blasting him into the next galaxy.

Taelyn has a self-appointed mission—to destroy every battle robot the Humanoid Alliance has ever manufactured. A huge gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg warrior with mismatched arms won’t prevent her from achieving her goal. She’ll escape him, leaving destruction in her wake.

Before she departs, she’ll experience one toe-curling moment of hatred-edged passion with her handsome foe. She’ll show him how skilled with detonations she truly is. He will have his universe rocked.

Then she’ll disappear.

Her cyborg, however, has no intention of ever letting her go.

***

Baring Grudge is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a determined, damaged warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an explosive game of predator and prey played across galaxies.

Baring Grudge is the third of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Throwback Thursday – Under Strain

By Cynthia Sax on March 7, 2024

Dinosaur planet.

(grins) Yes, Under Strain is set on a dinosaur planet. Those dinosaurs want to eat the heroine and not in a sexy way. They view her as dinner

The cyborgs, on the other hand, want to RIDE the dinosaurs. (laughs) Yeah, they are wild warriors. And they have some big fun in this story.

Under Strain

A damaged cyborg warrior is hunted by a peace-loving human female.

***

Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.

That mission takes place on a small remote planet. Its lush terrain should only be inhabited by the cyborgs they were sent to rescue, but Strain senses another presence on the surface. She is watching him, tracking him, hunting him.

A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.

Strain wants to claim her. Forever.

Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.

When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.

She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.

***

Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.

Throwback Thursday – Containing Malice

By Cynthia Sax on February 29, 2024

Containing Malice is, IMHO, the story most similar to Releasing Rage.

Malice is angry. He doesn’t have hope. He hates all humans, including the female medic forced to experiment on him. He also has a best friend he’d do anything for. And the two of them are desperate to escape the Humanoid Alliance.

It is truly an enemies-to-lovers romance. Malice plans to kill Illona. And Illona fears she’ll be forced to kill Malice.

Containing Malice

This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.

***

Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.
