Book Description
STEAMY HOT CYBORG ROMANCE COLLECTION 3 Standalone Romance Short Stories With No Cliffhanger Cyborg Love All the cyborgs want is the chance to live, but they have to fight for it. Cyborgs aren’t meant to live. They’re monsters, created by the Government to fight. When they went wrong, they should have been killed there and then... Eve hates the cyborg army because they killed her brother. She doesn’t care that they’ve got a consciousness; she doesn't consider them human. They shouldn’t be here anymore. However, her path for revenge leads her to the very hot Javier, a cyborg that teaches her she isn’t always right. As he takes her on a journey she wasn’t expecting, she learns that maybe she hasn’t ever been supporting the right side. As more shocks and secrets are revealed, she recognizes the world needs a massive change, and that she might have to help make that change come about. Sweet Cyborg One coin will give Adrienne the happiness of a lifetime. But what happens when she matches with someone outside of this social norm? Earth. Year 5678. Couples are joined together by union machines which match them based on 98% compatibility. Adrienne has yet to use these machines even though her best friend and her boss have been pressuring to do it. When her boss hands her a galactic coin for the machine, she concedes. Maybe her mundane cycle of work and sleep would be more bearable with a partner. At the machines, she clumsily drops the coin on the ground and bumps heads with a complete stranger—a rather handsome stranger with a cybernetic arm. He asks her to coffee. Even though social norm dictates their matches must come from the machine, Adrienne accepts his offer and they connect immediately. Their connection is disrupted when Adrienne receives an email from the Federation matching her with someone else. When Leo discovers this match, their bond is nearly destroyed—and Adrienne must make a choice. Terraformed Skies The perfect relationship without any worries and judgment... okay, sure. Erika He’s perfection. His muscles glisten with sweat in the hot sun and his body beckons for me to touch it. I know I’m his superior in many ways. Our classes are separated, but I want him more than anything. His eyes light up when they see me and his smile is genuine. His body does things to me I’ve only dreamed… I can’t focus on anything else when I think of those beautiful lips covering my skin. It’s impossible. When those awful creatures invaded, I nearly lost him. If I had, I wouldn’t be standing here. I’d be lost and wrought with sorrow, utterly destroyed. My heart belongs to him no matter where we are...even if it’s in the middle of a battlefield. Leonard Such an intelligent woman would want nothing to do with me, yet here she was rolling her hips against my body. We were one. No one could judge us in this space. My rough hands embraced every inch of her skin and her moans signaled me to push further… I just wanted to make her happy, but the world was beginning to fall apart at the seams. We would have to fight through together...or lose each other forever.
