Sci-fi Romance - Short story
On an
isolated Union space station, a Federation ship and a Federation
Planet - The future
Jolie
Blakney, a Federation cyborg doctor, is starting to have second
thoughts about the wisdom of her current mission. She’s aboard a
Union space station trying to convince cyborg Thorgan D’Emry that he
should accept an offer from the Federation. The offer? Undo the
hardware the Union put in that prevents Thorgan from getting an
erection. The Union uses this control to get cyborgs to work for
free, promising to undo it at a later date. Somehow Jolie just never
thought about how a very strong, probably horny man would react to
having his masculinity definitively questioned.
Thorgan D’Emry can’t believe the temerity of Jolie’s suggestion. How
the heck does she know about his problem? But when she explains that
she can reverse the effects of the hardware here and now, well, what
male would turn that down? His one requirement? Jolie has to help
him make sure everything is fully functioning.
Though
Jolie’s assignment (THE CYBORG RECRUITMENT PROJECT) is a success,
Thorgan did after all join the Federation, and things between Jolie
and Thorgan are bound to be complicated. Mainly because Thorgan
doesn’t realize just how much the little doctor has gotten under his
skin and he’s intent on using his newly restored ability on all of
the beauties he can find. Jolie, on the other hand, wavers between
trying to convince herself that he means nothing to her and plotting
to make him regret his fickle ways. Ooh, you just know
this is going to end badly. ;-) Oh yeah, did I mention that the
Union wants Thorgan back? ‘Cause they definitely do.
Most
of the story is spent with only Jolie and Thorgan, but there are a
couple of secondary characters worth mentioning. Welther Graf is
Jolie’s boss and he offers to hurt Thorgan for messing with her.
What a good guy! Malia, a receptionist where Jolie works and her
best friend, has a plan to help Jolie make Thorgan realize just what
he’s missing. Ah, girlfriends are so helpful!
With
plenty of action, some of it not involving Thorgan’s newly
restored abilities, and a blossoming love story underneath, THE
CYBORG RECRUITMENT PROJECT is a great choice for your next book
buying trip.
