A Cynical Cyborg Meets A Bad, Bad Female.

Chuckles hates all humans. In the past, humans betrayed him. That treachery caused permanent damage to his muscular form, resulting in a lifespan of pain.

When the primitive D Model cyborg answers a distress call sent by a pink-and-blue haired, sparkly human female, he knows it’s a trap. He still has to respond to her fake cry for help. She belongs to him, is the one being genetically fabricated for him. But he plans to be her captor, not her captive.

Bettina, aka Bait, works with a team of females, snaring sexual predators in space, seizing their ships and transporting them to primitive planets. As soon as she speaks with Chuckles, she knows he’s not like the others. He has honor, is a being worthy of respect, of caring.

But she can’t let him go. She has to trap him. His dominance thrills her. His deep voice evokes desires she’d never experienced in the past. She’ll risk it all, breaking every rule for one wild encounter with the male she calls Sir.

Book 1: Choosing Chuckles
Book 2: Doc's Orders
Book 3: Dominance And Dissent
Book 4: North Bound

This is a great start to a new series by Ms. Sax. I would like to humbly suggest that she might have someone write like a summary or introduction to her Worlds. The reason for this being that I believe she is so intwined with her works that the recognition that readers New to her books might be a BIT lost is, well, lost on her. Haha. But really, I am just continually intrigued, delighted, appreciative of her characters and their worlds (like the Carinae E reference would be lost on new readers) yet a reader first checking out Ms. Sax doesn't know the cyborg history, what the Humanoid Alliance is, about the other aliens, the different cyborg models, home planet, New world, the amazement of them having children, explaining more about the nanocybotics and how they might work, and even how it came to be that cyborgs have come in part to be free. These are details I LOVE and need to make the story glow. It's how I know Chuckles is so damn overwhelmed by Bettina and why his fellow Cyborgs just let him leave to follow the possibility of his female. Ah love.

Anyway, this was just fantastical, romantic (the adoring scene is a tear jerker), and yes plenty of lusty times = thank you very much. I will stop myself here. Two thumbs up.

This was a very interesting and somewhat kinky romance. I was surprised because I wasn’t expecting the dominance displayed by the cyborg. The characters were just strange which made the storyline strange as well. I liked the interaction between Chuckles and Bettina, but could have passed on some of their punishment scenes. It was just a little bit more than was needed to hold the story together. I would like to read more about Keeper and Smarts actually.

I really really enjoy the world Cynthia Sax has created and this spin off or additional content is great. Thank you for continuing to tell their stories! This book is a little more domi/sub then most of the others but I think a fantastic job was done showing how that can and is a close trusting and caring relationship even if that isn't your thing. Anyway, it's a great book, steamy scenes, bit of adventure and chuckles finally finally grins.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Reading the Paranormal Review
Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2020

The cyborgs are out patrolling the section of space they've claimed as their own and...it's a little boring. You know, since the cyborgs thrive on danger and war and there's not much of either of those in the sector they're patrolling. Things take a slightly more thrilling turn once Chuckles hears his special someone's voice on a fake distress call. Not only has he found his lady, but she's a liar who uses her wiles to draw in predators which puts her in danger.

No lie, Bettina was fun. She's sparkly and upbeat and is (mostly) aware of the potential danger she could be in if anything were to go wrong. Chuckles is neither sparkly nor upbeat, but the two of them hit it off something fierce. Possibly (don't quote me on this, though) because Bettina gets a kick out of his gruff, growly, unsmiling exterior and he's fascinated by how much she enjoys his demands and desire to control situations.

A grumpy cyborg and an over-the-top human. They don't seem like they'd be compatible, but SPARKS FLY when they come together. Or maybe that's just Bettina's body glitter. Either way, Chuckles is okay with it.

3.0 out of 5 stars A new cyborg series!

3 stars - I liked it

Chuckles hates all humans. When he answers a distress call sent by a pink and blue haired sparkly female he realizes it's a trap but he also knows she is his. Battina, aka Bait, works with a team of females, capturing predators, seizing their ships and transporting them to primitive planets. She doesn’t expect a cyborg but she can’t resist him.

This was a good cyborg romance. Chuckles was a very grim cyborg but Bettina really brings out his emotions. She makes him more than an angry machine. I was surprised by how much I liked Bettina. She was a beautiful human who uses that beauty as bait to catch sexual predators. Bettina was just a courageous woman who used her deadly job to support her father.

The sex in this one was steamy! Bettina is extremely submissive and just wants to be protected, which was perfect for an overprotective cyborg like Chuckles. She does like to get in trouble though so she can get disciplined, which was a lot. Basically the sex scenes in this book were great and worked wonderfully for these two character.

Sax’s writing has definitely improved since her first cyborg book. There is a lot more character and story development now than there was in the beginning, which makes these newer books a lot more fun, especially since they still have a lot of sex. Overall, this was a great start for a new series and I can’t wait for the other crew members to find their mates.

4.0 out of 5 stars I prefer C-Models personally.

Sir is probably not happy that his book is only a 4-star book, but his D-Model butt wasn't as sexy as a C-Model, so he just didn't do it for me.

Bettina is a colorful piece of space jetsam who spends her time with her friends, hailing strangers to see what predators respond and then parting those predators from their spaceships and placing the creepers on the nearest habitable planet to find themselves new arrangements.

Chuckles is a jaded D-Model who hates humans and believes they are all deceitful tricksters. His genetic match, Bettina, proves his point. But she also calls him Sir, begs him to call her baby, yearns to play domination/submission games with him, and after all, is his. So who is the big hunk of bolts to complain, amirite?

I liked the D/s elements of this one. Whatsmore is that I enjoyed the story, it was delicious. The overall story arc was fantastic BUT--for some reason, Chuckles kept rubbing me wrong. And perhaps some of it was I was having a hard time taking an irascible badass cyborg named Chuckles sexy, that could be it.

If you like cyborgs by Laurann Dohner or Grace Goodwin, check this out. If you like Choosing Chuckles, then check out Evangeline Anderson and Ruby Dixon because that might tickle your pleasure.

Cynthia takes us yet again into the violent, gritty reality of her dystopian series. Chuckles is--regardless his name--NOT a smily fellow, but his dedication and determination will make you cheer for him and our heroine.

I love Cynthia Sax..
Really enjoyed all the cyborg novels in the series...
The lead female character was a tad irritating when she wanted to release the killers currently locked up.. even though they had shown what horrible creatures that they were..
The one thing I would like to see in Cynthia Sax's cyborg novels is more interaction between other cyborgs and their mates...

Bettina is an interesting character who enjoys being spanked and tied up. This is the character's prerogative and Chuckles is on board with that.
