However she's not afraid. Maybe she should be.While cordial, Harbin is much more interesting than she expected. His suit was also so tight, she saw all of his assets, and fine assets they were.Irritated at his assignment, Harbin meets with the Terran emissary, Lady Bianca and is immediately drawn to her. They both have similar desires--to see the end of the war.Harbin's Craving, however, makes it difficult to focus on what she needs because of what he wants.He wants her. Plain and simple. He cannot get her out of his mind.Then an explosion changes everything.Bianca hides on the icy rock of Sol-1, with Harbin. The frigid temperatures leave them both physically close to one another to keep her safe. A true test for Harbin's Craving, for certain.And when others show up attempting to attack Bianca, Harbin must do everything in his programming to keep her safe.Even if it means sacrificing himself. less

Though truly, what could she do, as a second child? She was not the heir to the Empire. She was merely the backup plan. While her sister Caoimhe never treated her as anything less, it was obvious that no one expected Eleanor to be more than bartering material for whatever merger the Emperor formed.The peace treaty with the Rhimodian cyborgs is the first time Eleanor has ever been sent on any sort of diplomatic mission, and she's nervous. After all, their mother died on a diplomatic mission to create a peace treaty with the Rhimodians.What could happen to her? The spare? The unimportant one?Jedriek, the youngest in his unit, had initially been bored with the mission of escorting the Terran Ambassadors into the Sol system for the peace negotiations. He would much rather be out there fighting.At least, that's how he felt about it, until he saw the picture of the Princesses.Unsure which one is which, Jedriek finds himself immediately drawn to the one with the bright blue eyes.When the Ambassador's ship explodes, Jedriek finds himself face to face with that very princess. And he is enthralled with her. Petite and curvy, she awakens his Craving like nothing he'd ever known.More so than any previous experience, Jedriek knows that he will do whatever he has to in order to please her.Fight the entire Terran Military by himself, if he has to.When Eleanor crashes on Sol-2, a desert and mountainous moon, she finds herself teaming up with a giant cyborg. Even bigger than she'd been told.And he stares at her like she's a prize. She'd been seen like a prize before, and she wasn't about to be this cyborg's prize.So she does the only thing she can think of to save herself and her sister.She lies. less

The Terrans believe the cyborgs have stolen a system of planets from them. At least, that’s how it started.It degenerated into hatred and fear.★Galactic Storm Book 5★Princess Caoimhe has more determination than an Imperial Princess should have.  It will get her killed.Heading straight into the Terran Empire's enemy, the Rhimodian Cyborgs in the name of peace? The danger in the stars is far more wicked than anything she'd find in the palace, right?Maybe not.Because nothing in the Imperial Palace is what it seems. And no one tells the truth about their agenda. Caught between what is right and what is commanded, Caoimhe must make decisions that no princess--no leader--should ever have to make to save her people.Including risk everything against a devious opponent who will stop at nothing to win.Even kill.Bahran is a Tarnished Rhimodian. Because he made choices that went against his people and Master System, he has lost his shine. Fortunate that Harbin's unit accepted him. All but Kian,  the only other -An cyborg in the unit, who reminds him of his failings.Not that Bahran needs any reminders.When the Ambassadors arrive, Bahran is in the perfect location in the escort to witness exactly what happens to the transport. The true attackers, however, do not want him to live to share the information.When Harbin gives the orders to protect the escape pods, Bahran finds himself in the difficult spot of protecting himself and his data, and protecting the Terran pod. When he realizes that the pod's occupant was intimately entwined with his data, he shuttles them both to the nearest Rhimodian moon, to get the Ambassador to the peace negotiations, come what may.It may even get him back his shine.If this mouthy Terran Princess doesn't make him crazy. One sight of her, and his Craving burns like nothing he's ever known.And Caoimhe? She's not sure what to think of her rescuer. He's awfully careful.And this is no time to be careful.She knows.She's been careful all her life. less
