Getting kidnapped by a cyborg wasn't in her plans. For unlucky-in-love salvage mechanic Malin Phoenix, all she wants is to buy some parts and get back to her work fixing starships. She didn't intend to get caught up in a coup on a cyborg planet, and she
definitely didn't plan to get kidnapped by a sexy cyborg.
Deadly, emotionless CenSec Xander Saros sweeps Mal into an adventure to retrieve an ancient Terran artifact and save his planet. She's shocked by the desire that flares between her and the big, tough cyborg, but she knows letting herself fall in love with a man who can't feel is a very bad idea.
Xander is the crowning glory of the Centax Security program. He's heavily enhanced and his emotions dampened, making him an efficient, lethal soldier. As he and Malin hunt for the remnant of the galaxy's first computer, the Antikythera Mechanism, their quest leads them into the lair of a dangerous technomancer.
Xander will do anything to help his planet, but he's also driven to protect the fascinating woman at his side...a woman who is doing the unthinkable and making him feel.
