I, Bionic: A Sci-Fi Romcom by Jess K. Hardy
“Once again, Jess K. Hardy delivers the space romance I didn't know I needed."

A BILLION STARS, TWO HEARTS, ONLY ONE CAVE.

After half-human bionic Elanie installs her LunaCorp hormone upgrade, tumultuous emotions and her changing body complicate her life aboard the deep space pleasure cruise, the Ignisar. Seeking answers, she’s thrown into the path of the ship’s handsome but curt physician, Sem, an empath from the ocean planet Portis.

Knowing empaths typically can’t tolerate being around bionics since AI emotions are unreadable, Sem is worried he won’t be able to treat Elanie effectively. Especially as he finds himself undeniably drawn to her, making a fool of himself every time he sees her. Remaining professional in the face of a massively inappropriate crush becomes next to impossible.

When a mysterious voice hacks Elanie’s programming, forcing her to hijack an escape pod and jump through space, Sem follows her to the edges of the Known Universe. Stranded on an uncharted planet together, they must fight to survive deadly blizzards, arctic ice caves, and a secret, hedonistic cult. Navigating their growing feelings for each other might prove to be an even greater challenge than escaping back to the Ignisar.

With the fun of an off-ship Star Trek episode, the intrigue of The Murderbot Diaries, and the heat of Ice Planet Barbarians, I, Bionic is sure to please lovers of both sci-fi and romance!


“I, Bionic takes us from deep space to an only-one-cave adventure on a Hoth-like ice planet to a Bacchanalic paradise full of secrets. The adventure kept me turning the page but it was the romance that made me want it to never end, hitting some of my favourite tropes: idiots to lovers, sex lessons, and forced proximity. Hardy is expert at creating a cast of found family who would do anything for each other and makes it easy to root for a happy ending for all.“
