Claiming Kaden by Celia BreslinSparks fly when a battle-hardened cyborg rescues a sassy human lost in the cosmos…
Earth-girl Calie is out of hope. Kidnapped, enslaved, then abandoned by aliens, she’s sure to suffer a slow death on their stupid space station. Then new trouble arrives, claiming her as their property, but hot on their heels is a grumpy guy with a big hot bod and blazing eyes… The thrill setting her skin afire has less to do with potential rescue or New Guy’s battle prowess, and everything to do with the way he looks at her.
Cyborg soldier Kaden is unamused by his enemy’s unhealthy interest in the vulnerable lone female with a sharp tongue and wild braids. Her terrible aim is complicating his rescue attempts, but her bravery, stubbornness, and velvet voice send electric need through both his human and cybernetic systems. He’ll do anything to save her.
Kaden wants to explore his attraction to Calie and claim her as his, but his sworn enemy’s relentless pursuit and Calie’s own skittishness challenge his goal. Calie appreciates all the cyborg has done for her, but she’s homesick and unsure about diving into a relationship, even if the hunky cyborg is the nicest man and best kisser in the universe.
While the enemy horde stalks them across the galaxy, can they learn to trust each other with both their lives and their hearts?
CLAIMING KADEN is a spicy, open-door, Fated Mates Rescue Romance, and the first installment in Celia Breslin’s CYBORG GUARDIANS OF THE AURORA science fiction romance series. If you like take-no-prisoners cyborgs and sassy heroines, sizzling seduction and intergalactic adventure, check out CLAIMING KADEN today!
The station’s vid screen flared to life, blocking her view. A handsome and angry male face filled the space. The brightest amber eyes she’d ever seen glared at her.
“Stop shooting,” the man growled.
The face disappeared.
“Who the hell was that, Athena?” A Zyphorran? She ignored the gorgeous stranger and kept firing at the battleship.
The face reappeared. Dark brows furrowed over his blazing whiskey eyes. “Desist, woman!”
“Desist this, you jerk!” She shot at the enemy. Continued to miss. “Ugh!”
She didn’t care how handsome he seemed, with his pale, silvery blue skin and spiky dark hair, and those glowing eyes which looked like they could melt a girl’s panties.
No one told her what to do, and no one would force her into servitude.
Never again.
The green vessel took out two enemy ships before it planted itself in front of Calie’s station.
Angry Guy’s face filled her screen. “I’m trying to help you. Stop firing!”
Oh… Cranky Guy was the pilot of the green ship. Possibly a good guy? Calie lifted her hands away from the controls.
As she watched, he took out every single destroyer then turned his attention to the warship.
“Shield at eight point seven percent,” Athena announced. “Hm…”
“What do you mean, hm? Should we head for an escape pod?”
“This is most intriguing. And disconcerting,” Athena murmured, not answering her escape question.
“What, that guy’s amazing battle prowess?”
“No. He infiltrated and took over my communication system to speak with you.”
Okay, now Calie was doubly impressed with good-looking Mister Frowny, because Athena was a powerful genius. No one bested her.
Calie plastered her palms on the controls. “Let’s help him kick that warship’s ass.”
“Don’t you dare,” their unknown ally barked, audio only.
“Are you eavesdropping on us? Rude!”
“The unknown male is attempting to take control of all station systems, Calie.”
“Cut it out, whoever you are,” Calie warned him. She aimed one of the station laser cannons at his ship.
“Who I am? I’m the male who’s going to disable and commandeer the warship, then eliminate everyone on board it while you sit on your pretty ass and stay out of my way.”
He thinks I’m pretty? She shook off the frisson skating down her spine. “Screw you. I’m blowing up that warship. Athena, take it out.”
Fun fact: I’m a total Book Nerd. Yep, in addition to writing my own stories and editing stories for other authors, I read. A lot, a lot, a lot. I generally read at least one new book per week, so if you’re doing the mental math gymnastics right now, that’s at least 52 books per year. Huzzah!
Here are some books and series I read and *loved* in 2024…
Contemporary Romance
* A Very Bossy Christmas, by Kayley Loring – steamy, heartwarming, and loud-out-loud funny!
* The Knockemout Series, by Lucy Score – three great books, small town, sizzling romance, and addictive alpha heroes and heroines.
* Downside of Dating Series, by Avery Flynn – two stellar books, hilarious wedding shenanigans (book #1), and hockey hijinks (book #2).
Dark Reverse Harem Romance
* Bay Ridge Royals Series, by Heather Long – six addictive books, deep, dark, and riveting, with super spicy romance, graphic violence, and intrigue. Not for the faint of heart. Reading tip: You don’t have to, but I’d start with the 82nd Street Vandals series, where you first meet our current cast of characters.
Romantasy/PNR/SFR
* Quicksilver, by Callie Hart – Enemies to Lovers, oodles of action, and spicy romance. Love the Fae.
* The Lair of the Wolven series, by J. R. Ward – three books, steamy romance, mystery and action, and a few familiar faces from the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Yay.
* Dauntless Cyborgs series, by Cynthia Sax – super fierce and hot cyborgs, strong heroines, and seriously sizzling romance. Reading tip: read ALL her cyborg romance series…Cyborg Rebels, Cyborg Unity, Cyborg Sizzle, Cyborg Space Exploration, and more. 5 stars!
* Zodiac Academy series, by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti – twelve books and it’s Fae all day. A little bit dark and a lot of bit riveting. Note: I’m five books in. Be warned: it’s a continuing series with cliffhanger book endings so far…
