ScytheQ - Pauline Baird Jones

Sparks fly between a half-cybernetic warrior and the no-nonsense pilot...

ScytheQ, once a fierce warrior now living in a sleek half-cybernetic body, has spent years battling her own emotions. She was forced to lock away her humanity behind the circuits and steel that she had become. When she is downloaded into a clon ed body, her return to a human form leaves her yearning for connection.

Major 'Tiger' Teeger, a no-nonsense pilot still dealing with the aftereffects of a previous mission, has no time to deal with the mysterious woman on his ship, especially when sparks fly-both literally and figuratively-between them. All thoughts of ignoring Scy are shot to the outer limits of the galaxy when they encounter enemies lurking in the shadows and betrayal seems to wait around every corner. Trust becomes as deadly a weapon as any blaster in the remote regions of the star system.

As Scy grapples with her growing humanity and her blossoming feelings for Tiger, her feelings put them both in danger. The only way to survive is to face the truth about who she has become and the human she needs to be for herself and for Tiger, but will it be enough to save them?

Travel to the far reaches of the universe and discover the power of love and the human spirit as Scy and Tiger search for a safe harbor for their hearts.
