Stranded with the Cyborg

Stranded with the Cyborg 

A Cy-Ops Sci-fi Romance

by Cara Bristol 

Blurb:

The daughter of the Terran president, Penelope Aaron resented the restrictions imposed upon her, but that was no reason to take it out on the man assigned to protect her. She regrets how she got Agent Brock Mann booted from the security force. But now that she’s an interplanetary ambassador about to embark on her first diplomatic mission, she still doesn’t want him tagging along. Especially since he seems to be stronger, faster, more muscled, and sexier than she remembers. And pretending to be her husband?  This mission couldn’t get more impossible!

Ten years ago Penelope Isabella Aaron had been a pain in Brock Mann’s you-know-what. Much has changed in a decade: “PIA” as he code-named her, has grown up and is about to attend her first Alliance of Planets summit conference, and Brock was transformed into a cyborg after a near-fatal attack. Now a secret agent with Cyber Operations, a covert paramilitary organization, Brock gets called in, not when the going gets tough, but when the going gets impossible. So when he’s unexpectedly assigned to escort Penelope to the summit meeting, he balks at babysitting a prissy ambassador. But after a terrorist bombing, a crash landing on a hostile planet, and a growing attraction to his protectee, Operation: PIA may become his most impossible assignment yet.

Excerpt

“Ten years have passed. Penelope is different now,” Carter said.

Brock doubted that. “Does she know about me?”

“That you’re a cyborg? Of course not. She hasn’t been told anything about the program or even that you’re the one who’s been assigned to her.”

“Yeah, spring it on her. That will go over well.” He could envision the tantrum, and, after she calmed down, the scheme she would devise to circumvent the decision. The last time he’d seen her, she’d been emerging from his quarters half-dressed, a triumphant smile tilting her lips. Shortly thereafter, two fellow agents had come to arrest him.

President Aaron had exonerated him, the transcripts from the investigation had been sealed, and he’d been offered reassignment. Instead, he’d taken a position with an anti-terrorist investigative organization. His unit got attacked; his fellow operatives had died. Carter, who’d been working with Cy-Ops all along, had swooped in and saved his ass.

“I’m not saying I’ll do it, but, hypothetically, if I had a computer meltdown and agreed, what would be my cover story? I couldn’t tag along as her bodyguard because that would unsettle the Xenians.”

Carter poured another shot of Cerinian brandy and downed it. He met Brock’s gaze dead-on. “You’d accompany Ambassador Aaron as her husband.”

“Oh, hell no!”

Blurb
Violet Tyler's heart was broken after discovering she was the third wheel in her big-city menage. Relegating the idea of being loved by two or more men to fantasy material, she throws her heart and soul into her business, Violet's Emporium.

Watching from the sidelines while they renovate her emporium, Josh and Lucas Abbott want her more every day and see the way her former lover chips away at her heart each time he pays her a visit. They've stretched out the renovation as long as they can and finally it's time to claim her or let her go.

 Invitations to a fantasy weekend at Hazelle House give the three of them a no-strings-attached chance to make her lumberjack menage fantasies a reality. But when the weekend is over and the real world - and her former lover - come calling, can her menage fantasy live in the light of day?

** A Siren Erotic Romance [Siren Menage Everlasting: Erotic Cowboy Menage a Trois Romance, M/F/M, voyeurism, light consensual BDSM, rope play, sex toys, HEA]

Review by pearls

She's been there, done that; and has the tshirt -- Violet has been part of a menage relationship and has the double broken heart to show for it.  And we can all relate to her as one of the exes continues to call her and play with her feelings.  So no way is she going to put her heart out there again.  But that doesn't mean she can't fantasize about being in a lumberjack sandwich between the two brothers renovating her store.  When a no-strings "fantasy-themed" weekend retreats offers the men a chance to pursue her, the brothers pull out all the stops to make her feel loved and beautiful.  Not only does the author create three distinct characters, but she also builds a world of characters at the retreat.  The reader watches as Violet's wounded self-esteem is healed over the weekend, as she impacts the lives of those around her, and as a new budding romance is started.  As always, the intimate moments are hot and sexy, fitting in with the storyline while allowing a story to unfold.  And the cat storyline is hysterical.  While this story can be read as a standalone, it is a great addition for lovers of the series. 

About the Author
Heather Rainier lives and writes in South Central Texas. Her stories offer up the content of her fantasies, with autobiographical humor, triumph and tragedy mixed in.

Heather's love of romance fiction began as a teenager when her mom gave her copies of Kathleen Woodiwiss's "The Flame and the Flower" and Bertrice Small's "Skye O'Malley". To this day she's pretty sure that was her mom's version of the "birds and the bees" talk.

Heather writes the type of novel she loves to read: More erotic and edgy than the mainstream, with plenty of sweet romance mixed in and a happily ever after guaranteed. Heather's favorite type of hero is the gentle, lovable giant but readers will discover a wide variety of heroes and alphas on the pages of her novels, from nearly perfect to very flawed.

When not happily typing at her keyboard, Heather is usually busy corralling her kids, or loving on her smokin' hot husband, who thankfully loves to cook.

Heather invites readers to e-mail her at heather.rainier@yahoo.com and also to visit her website at www.heatherrainier.com

Never send a woman to do a man’s job. Yanis Drakos lives for his job, and nothing and no one will get in the way of what he wants.

Author Lexxie Couper

Lexxie’s not a deviant. She just has a deviant’s imagination and a desire to entertain readers with her words. Add the two together and you get darkly erotic romances with a twist of horror, sci-fi and the paranormal.

When she’s not submerged in the worlds she creates, Lexxie’s life revolves around her family, a husband who thinks she’s insane, a indoor cat who likes to stalk shadows, two yabbies hell-bent on destroying their tank and her daughters, who both utterly captured her heart and changed her life forever.

Having no idea how old she really is, Lexxie decided to go with 27 and has been that age for quite some time now. It's the best of both worlds - old enough to act mature, young enough to be silly.

And silly she can be. Just ask her husband who frequently has to endure her bursting into song whenever the mood strikes her, feeling him up in public (one of her favorite pastimes), or rolling around in the sand with their dog - a large mutt of dubious origins who causes almost as much havoc around the neighborhood as Lexxie herself. Or squealing her way down the slide at the local park with her daughter!

Lexxie lives by two simple rules - measure your success not by how much money you have, but by how often you laugh, and always try everything at least once. As a consequence, she's laughed her way through many an eyebrow raising adventure.

Author Zaide Bishop

I am a spirited, passionate woman living in beautiful Brisbane in Australia. I love reading, horror movies, video games, gardening, shrimp keeping and, most of all, writing.

I am also chronically ill and disabled, following a rare (non contagious!) medical condition that caused extensive organ damage. I'm empathetic to all the single ladies and gentlemen who find it difficult to find love because of some kind of challenge, like disability, children, a taxing job or other dependents that make getting out and meeting people such a huge obstacle.

My blog is targeted at single and partnered people, with the aim of keeping life sexy and romantic, no matter what your status is. Married people can still end up feeling lonely and single people don't need a partner to have romance in their life!

I have all the regular, boring hopes and dreams: owning my own house, having a partner and a family and controlling an army of giant robot shrimps with lasers for eyes (solar powered, of course).

I hope my books make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and I hope you link your friends to my blog. I still have that house to buy, after all.

Oh, and I'm calling dibs on the next sweet, gorgeous geek that walks through here.
