Throwback Thursday – Testing Truth
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 – North Bound
North Bound features one of my all time favorite secondary characters – Steve, the male-eating plant ruler of an entire fraggin’ planet.
Steve doesn’t speak. At least not to humans, humanoids and cyborgs.
But he certainly can get his message across. And that message is everyone should respect him.
North, the cyborg hero of North Bound, believes beings should respect HIM also.
When these two alpha males meet…well…beings will die.
North Bound
A mission-focused cyborg battles a captivating and dramatic distraction.
***
North, the second-in-command of a cyborg crew, has two priorities—he has to explore and collect data on Balazoid Minor, a small planet in their sector, and he must bring his three-being team back to the ship alive and fully functional.
When he encounters his brash, bravado-wielding female, the one being genetically designed for him, he recognizes her for what she is—a distraction that might get him and his brethren killed. He WILL claim her, but only on his terms, when his mission is complete and everyone he is responsible for protecting is safe.
Myrina the Magnificent is the best warrior on her planet and possibly the universe. She has captured an unparalleled fourteen males for her all-female tribe. Once she has secured the fifteenth male, she will be a legend. Her name will live forever. She’ll earn the undying adoration of her sisters. Glory will be hers.
The male in her sights—and in her snare—is a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg with a skill for war and lips designed for kissing. One emotionally charged battle is all it takes for Myrina to realize she wants North for herself. She won’t share his caresses with anyone.
Their forbidden love might be destined to be, but it won’t be easy to maintain. Myrina will have to fight her sisters, an all-powerful male-eating plant, and her cyborg’s unbending will to make North hers and hers alone.
***
North Bound is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

Throwback Thursday – Dominance And Dissent
Dissent is a big tough cyborg…with a weakness for rescuing helpless creatures. He could crush a boulder with his bare hands yet he’s gentle and careful with the little beings he frees.
He is as gentle and careful with Greer, a human female, he has also freed. She is his genetic match and he would do anything to give her all that she wants.
She wants to travel far, far away from him and everyone else.
Dominance And Dissent
To earn the love of his curvy human, this cyborg will have to set her free.
***
Dissent has one primary mission—to find his female and protect her.
He doesn’t know who she is, where she’s situated, or what she looks like. That doesn’t stop him from searching the universe for her. He’s a cyborg and he’s determined. He WILL track her down.
While the J Model warrior is exploring a settlement on a merchant planet, he hears a defiant scream. Dissent has finally located the one being he’s genetically compatible with. He rushes to his little human’s side, ready and willing to defend her, eager to claim his female…forever.
Greer has only one dream—to be free. She’s been a slave her entire lifespan, has been subjected to soul-crushing abuse and pride-shredding humiliation. When an opportunity to escape presents itself, she takes it. Steps away from independence, she’s apprehended.
As she looks death in the face, waiting for the final strike, a tall, handsome cyborg warrior saves her. He exudes power, makes her tremble with desire, is unlike any of the males she’s ever known…except in one heartbreaking way.
He wants to own her.
As Dissent and Greer battle for dominance, danger looms. An enemy from the past has returned. He’s heavily armed, he’s not alone, and his sole goal is to kill both of them.
***
Dominance And Dissent is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features an overprotective cyborg, a defiant slave, and a ravenous baby creature who is determined to eat his way through an entire settlement.

Throwback Thursday – Doc’s Orders
Doc’s Orders is a tough story to read right now because it deals with a pandemic on an isolated planet and we’re currently living through a pandemic (or more than one) here on Earth.
Doc’s Orders was written before COVID. But that wasn’t due to me predicting COVID would happen.
I had merely done my research.
Pandemics, unfortunately, happen. Often.
They especially happen when isolated populations are exposed to travelers. Explorers killed millions of beings by exposing them to germs and viruses and other things they had never before that contact experienced.
This would happen with space travel also. And it DOES happen…in Doc’s Orders.
Doc’s Orders
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.
A fully functional cyborg is balanced. His machine half and his organic half work together to produce the perfect warrior.
Doc isn’t fully functional.
The G Model operates at the two extremes. When his machine is in complete control, he’s the logic-driven medic, saving lifespans. Once his organics take charge, he becomes the savage beast…and beings die.
Both sides of Doc want to be the first to claim his female.
Allinen is one of the few beings in her small settlement who wasn’t born with a fated mate. Determined to belong somewhere, she has crafted a plan to leave the planet.
That plan doesn’t involve a huge stormy-eyed male who alternates between cool seduction and out-of-control ravishment. Doc isn’t her fated mate. Allinen knows that. But his dual nature and forbidden embraces tempt her to forget forever and indulge in more immediate delights.
Neither side of Doc views their relationship as being temporary. Her conflicted cyborg is prepared to battle her family, her planet and death itself to keep her.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord Unarmed
The Chamele Barbarian Warlords series features…you guessed it… barbarian warlords. You wouldn’t think barbarians would be skilled with technology.
But, of course, if they are traveling by spaceship from planet to planet, a feat humans haven’t yet accomplished, they WOULD be skilled in technology.
And Murad, the hero of Warlord Unarmed, is EXTREMELY skilled in all things technical.
That doesn’t help him much when he crashes on a planet with his human female, however.
Warlord Unarmed
Protected by the Barbarian Warrior
* * *
Murad, a technology-loving Chamele Warlord, has to track down and eliminate a rogue warrior before that male ends Murad’s reign. Permanently.
When a pieced-together wreck of a ship enters the sector without authorization, Murad assumes it is piloted by an ally of his enemy and decides to blow the battered vessel out of open space.
Then he hears the voice of its sole occupant and his orders and his priorities immediately shift. The captain of the ship is his gerel, the one female he’s genetically compatible with—the light to his darkness, his future, his everything.
He will protect her…even if it costs him his life.
Bounty hunter Gale doesn’t want or need protection. She has entered Chamele space on a rescue mission. A tall, muscular, half-naked barbarian with humor-lit eyes and gentle hands won’t distract her from that purpose, no matter what he tries.
A broken ship and an enemy focused on revenge do interfere with her plans. Gale’s goal changes from saving a friend to saving herself. The only being who can increase her chances of survival is the one Warlord she can’t resist.

Throwback Thursday – Testing Truth
On every team I’ve ever worked with, there has always been one sh*t disturber i.e. embracer of chaos. (On writing teams, there are usually several. – grins) They stir things up, cause others to think more creatively, thrive on disruption. And they are a valued part of the team. Because all that is necessary.
Truth is that being on his team.
And that is appealing to Princess Nancy because she needs someone who can change direction easily with changing circumstances. She is seeking to rescue her brother and she doesn’t know what she’ll find on the prison ship holding him.

A fun-loving cyborg gets serious about love.

Throwback Thursday – North Bound
Every time I think about North Bound, I smile. It is such a fun story.
Sure, North, the cyborg hero, is a bit serious. But his heroine, Myrina the Magnificent, is over the top in all the best ways. And Steve, the male-eating plant ruler of Myrina’s home planet, is absolutely amazing.
I love this story and I think you’ll love it also. (smiles)

And he has a softness for small defenseless creatures. (smiles)

Throwback Thursday – Doc’s Orders
A series about space exploration wouldn’t, unfortunately be complete without a story centering around the diseases newcomers might transfer to the often isolated local population. That has always been a terrible consequence of exploration.
Doc’s Orders is that story in the cyborg world. I wrote it before COVID and our own Earth-based pandemic. At the time, scientists believed Candida auris would likely become a pandemic (it still might become one) and that is what I roughly based the outbreak in Doc’s Orders on.
Doc’s Orders might be too…real for some readers. And that’s okay. Skip this story and read the next one in the series.
Doc’s Orders
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.

Throwback Thursday – Warlord Unarmed
Murad, the barbarian hero of Warlord Unarmed, is a skilled warrior. That’s merely not the thing he does best. He’s gifted in wielding technology. He loves it and he uses it to protect his planet.
When he crashes with his human female on an isolated part of the planet, however, he can’t use technology to keep them alive.
I loved seeing this tech-focused hero struggle and then thrive in tech-empty terrain!
Warlord Unarmed
Protected by the Barbarian Warrior
* * *
Murad, a technology-loving Chamele Warlord, has to track down and eliminate a rogue warrior before that male ends Murad’s reign. Permanently.
When a pieced-together wreck of a ship enters the sector without authorization, Murad assumes it is piloted by an ally of his enemy and decides to blow the battered vessel out of open space.
Then he hears the voice of its sole occupant and his orders and his priorities immediately shift. The captain of the ship is his gerel, the one female he’s genetically compatible with—the light to his darkness, his future, his everything.
He will protect her…even if it costs him his life.
Bounty hunter Gale doesn’t want or need protection. She has entered Chamele space on a rescue mission. A tall, muscular, half-naked barbarian with humor-lit eyes and gentle hands won’t distract her from that purpose, no matter what he tries.
A broken ship and an enemy focused on revenge do interfere with her plans. Gale’s goal changes from saving a friend to saving herself. The only being who can increase her chances of survival is the one Warlord she can’t resist.
