Book Description
The war may be over, but the fight for their humanity is just beginning. PEYTON 313 - Dr. Kyra Winters never meant for her cyber science discoveries to be used for evil, but that’s exactly what happened. She can’t undo the past but she can change the present by restoring the cyborg who was once Marine Captain Peyton Elliot. KINGSTON 691 - Norton took his wife and his memories away. Now King wants them back. Kingston West put his military service behind him much easier than most of the soldiers he served with during the final world war. As far as he's concerned, the cyborg named Kingston 691 no longer exists. MARCUS 582 - No matter what his cybernetic mind concludes, nothing in Marcus Kell’s newly restored life is logical. He still remembers all the things Kyra says a restored cyborg is supposed to forget. Things like what it was like to be captured and tortured while fighting to save a country that a decade later doesn’t care about him. ERIC 754 - Marine Lance Corporal Eric Anderson tended to forget he was a cyborg. Most of the time he didn't give his past as a military machine any thought. He'd always lived by his human gut, not his logic chip, so thinking outside of the cybernetic box was just how he worked. Then he met her—Evelyn 489—a female cyborg so erratically dangerous she has to be kept locked away.

Book Description
True love can defy time, but can it defy space, aliens, and being abducted? Aliens In Kilts is a funny, spoofy, romantic adventure through space and time. And that's just the beginning of the chaos! Apologies to the Whovians, Trekkies, and those who have the Force strong within them. There’s none of that happening for Angus MacNamara and Erin O’Shea from a primitive 1950s Earth who are trying as hard as they can to make the best of their alien situation. MATCHMAKER ABDUCTION The big blue planet that most call New Earth desperately needs matchmakers. The original matchmakers are dead, and much worse, their DNA is no longer viable for cloning. Solution? Go back in time to one of Earth’s other—thankfully slower spinning—versions, and retrieve the alternates of the one couple in any universe who seems able to do the job. It's Angus and Erin versus aliens in this humorous Science Fiction Romance. NATE'S FATED MATE After a hundred years and four other wives, he should have been over her. Nate likes things calm and peaceful. Predictable outcomes suit him. Or they had until he realizes Sheena will soon be walking out of his life again. Letting her go didn’t work out last time he did it. This time Nate has to stop her. SHADES OF DARCONE Trouble, she was. Big trouble. HIS trouble. New Earth humans call him alien, but it is they who are strange. His fierce appearance ensures no human bride will choose him. Humans and their drama—he wants no part of it. No. That is a lie. He wants Bri at any cost. He’s always wanted Bri. Has he really been waiting two hundred years to make Brianna McNamara his? Author Note: It’s challenging to describe the full range of romantic humor in these books, but if you like movies like Galaxy Quest, Spaceballs, or more recently, Guardians of the Galaxy, then you’re definitely going to like this series.

Book Description
Trouble, she was. Big trouble. HIS trouble. New Earth humans call him Alien, but it is they who are strange. His fierce appearance and stilted speech ensure no human bride will choose him. Such things only matter if you care, and for now, Darcone does not. On his planet, he is revered as a mighty warrior. On Earth, he meekly serves as an Admiral’s guard. Why does he stay on this nearly hostile planet? Because answering to humans is still preferable to obeying the wishes of his family to mate with a woman he does not want. Humans and their drama—he wants no part of it. No. That is a lie. He wants her at any cost. He’s always wanted Bri. But a good bride, the woman is not. Fierce, Commander Bri is—and noble, but still a female. The idea of her ever being in danger makes him in growl in fury, fueled by emotions he’s never felt before. Caring points only to one truth—a truth Darcone wishes with all his oversized heart to deny. Has he really been waiting two hundred years to make Brianna McNamara his?

Book Description
A groundbreaking narrative on the urgency of ethically designed AI and a guidebook to reimagining life in the era of intelligent technology. The Age of Intelligent Machines is upon us, and we are at a reflection point. The proliferation of fast–moving technologies, including forms of artificial intelligence akin to a new species, will cause us to confront profound questions about ourselves. The era of human intellectual superiority is ending, and we need to plan for this monumental shift. A Human Algorithm: How Artificial Intelligence Is Redefining Who We Are examines the immense impact intelligent technology will have on humanity. These machines, while challenging our personal beliefs and our socioeconomic world order, also have the potential to transform our health and well–being, alleviate poverty and suffering, and reveal the mysteries of intelligence and consciousness. International human rights attorney Flynn Coleman deftly argues that it is critical that we instill values, ethics, and morals into our robots, algorithms, and other forms of AI. Equally important, we need to develop and implement laws, policies, and oversight mechanisms to protect us from tech’s insidious threats. To realize AI’s transcendent potential, Coleman advocates for inviting a diverse group of voices to participate in designing our intelligent machines and using our moral imagination to ensure that human rights, empathy, and equity are core principles of emerging technologies. Ultimately, A Human Algorithm is a clarion call for building a more humane future and moving conscientiously into a new frontier of our own design. “[Coleman] argues that the algorithms of machine learning––if they are instilled with human ethics and values––could bring about a new era of enlightenment.” —San Francisco Chronicle
