Testing Truth – Nereid Negative One
In Testing Truth (releasing on September 15th), the cyborgs are assigned to explore Nereid Negative One. This is a small outpost planet. Ships stop there for emergency supplies and repairs. Very few beings live on Nereid Negative One permanently. It is covered with gray ash and isn’t a nice place.
As Dissent shares, “The planet is named Nereid Negative One because the first being who stepped upon its surface claimed zero was too generous a designation for it.”
He also adds, “One traveler called Nereid Negative One the place dreams go to die.”
(grins) It isn’t a pleasant place but it IS situated in the cyborg-controlled sector. According to Power’s mandate, they have to explore it.
Normally, the planets in my stories are named after stars. Nereid Negative One, being such a…well…unimpressive planet, is named after Nereid, Jupiter’s third largest moon. Nereid is notable for having the strangest orbit of all Jupiter’s moons and having ice on its surface.

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.

SciFi Saturday News – Hacking DNA, Stormtroopers, and Solar Winds
Here is the round up of the SciFi stories that inspired me this week
Hacking DNA and Deep Space Travel
Are you writing a shifters in space SciFi romance and you want a reason for them existing?
Amor Menezes, an aerospace engineer and synthetic biology researcher, shares
“For resource utilization, it’s obvious that on a long-duration space mission you’ll want to take advantage of every material at your disposal. We think that engineered organisms could certainly help us repurpose materials we’re currently wasting, like the one kilogram of carbon dioxide that astronauts exhale each day.”
Solar Winds
Want to talk about solar winds in your SciFi romance (sexy – grins)?
“Waves of plasma from the sun known as solar wind have been found to affect the levels of water on the moon as well as other lunar features, according to new a research conducted by scientists in Sweden.”
Star Wars’ Finn
I loved this interview with John Boyega, the actor who plays Finn in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I feel his excitement. As a cyborg writer, I also loved his insights on playing a Stormtrooper.
“It was so intriguing about the role. I think for me, wearing the helmet and being part of the Stormtroopers felt so strange. Like, so this is what it feels like to just be one of the many. And to look the same, and to have to do the same thing. To be under the same orders. This is what it feels like. And I was actually quite shocked as to how much Finn’s journey is investigating [that idea]. He’s a fun character, he has a very complicated history, but we get to experience the individuality of Stormtroopers, and it’s never been done before.”

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.
