UNIT 78: Rescued

While the romance did feel rushed, this was a good story!

I really enjoyed this cyborg romance. Rich seems like a kick butt cyborg but definitely has a soft side. Kyrin was definitely a damsel in distress character. But I have to say the bad guys were really creepy and definitely know how to use a person. I hope in possible future books that daddy dearest gets what he deserves. Definitely not a nice guy. The story had a lot of action and did heat up.

I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of the book.

I really enjoyed this story!!! It pulled me in from beginning to end and once I started I didn't want to stop. I loved the characters. They are well written and you can definitely connect to them. This story could have a couple trigger buttons for people but the blurb gives you a pretty good idea of exactly what is going on in this story. I thought it was all handled well. I loved the interactions between Rich and Kyrin. They are between a rock and a hard place and they do their best. I love how Rich checked everything with Kyrin and made sure that she knew. I really liked the plot and the world that Mina Carter has created here. I wasn't ready for the story to be over. There is plenty of action and intrigue along with the romance. The story is explicit. The story flowed well and kept me engaged the whole time. It was a fairly quick read for me and I'm excited for the next one!

The second book in this entertaining off planet series. Cyborgs are former humans killed or almost killed in action. By choice...I don't think so. This group were not brain dead and fight with human emotions, they will not be killing machines. Rich is sent on a mission that doesn't quite go the way he expected. Can he rescue this woman destined to be part of his life forever? A great afternoon read, I highly recommend it.

Rich AKA Unit 78, is one of the "failed" cyborg experiments. He retained more of his humanity than the truly brain dead units. As usual he and his unit are treated with disdain by the military that created them, treating them as a dirty little secret. But when an Admirals daughter is kidnapped on a peacekeeping mission, they are called on to extract her.

Kyrin, is a negotiator but her skills let her down when she is kidnapped by a breeding cult! The leader wants to breed her himself but when Rich lands and claims that he is the "man of metal" mentioned in their prophecy. He has to get Kyrin out of their clutches but to do so he is going to have to get up close and far more personal than her father wants!

Kyrin came across as a bit naïve in my opinion. However she is a pacifist at her core and it kind of worked for her. Rich was Alpha personified. I loved how he took care of Kyrin in the throes of her serum induced "hot period". Kyrins humiliation could have crippled her but with Rich by her side she copes pretty well. Her fathers reaction, however left me wanting to smack him one! What an odious toad!

I enjoyed getting to know some of the other cyborg members of his crew as I haven't read the other book in this series as yet. Kyrin's sister is a bit of a firebrand and I can't wait to see what havoc she wreaks!
