Her Cyborg Commander The Drift Haven Colony Book 9 – Susan Hayes

Currently, he was experiencing both of these feelings, and it was making him more than a little crazy. He paced the deck of the little ship he’d managed to obtain for this mission. It had almost no firepower and was smaller than he’d like, but it was fast—faster than any of the shuttles he would have been forced to steal if Sevda hadn’t agreed to lend him her ship. Once he’d told her what River had done with the scans and reports she’d given her, it was an easy ask.

Sevda hadn’t known what River was planning, and she was horrified that she’d inadvertently helped the stubborn little minx. “Eddi, anything new to report?” he asked the ship’s AI. “I would like to report that I have a very demanding passenger who persists in stomping on my deck and asking questions he already knows the answers to.” Eddi’s voice was clear and soothing, with a slight inflection that made it sound female.

Edge grinned a little at the AI’s sass. “Do you talk to Sevda that way?” “Of course. I have an adaptive learning algorithm and Pilot Sevda was with me for many years. Aspects of my personality are a reflection of hers.” “So, she infected you with sarcasm and sass?” The former corporate scout was a force of nature, which made her a good match for Raze, not to mention one of the few humans he trusted completely.

She’d been the driving force behind getting Liberty declared a colony just so Raze could continue living there, and later she’d made every cyborg feel welcome. “To quote my former pilot, if you spend enough time flying solo in the void, even an argument with an AI with attitude issues is better than another hour of silence.”

ABOUT THE BOOK Coming to Haven colony should have marked the start of her new life, but the past isn’t done with her yet. River had negotiated the agreement that brought the survivors of Reamus Station to Haven. Back then, she’d dreamed it would be a sanctuary for her cyborg brethren, somewhere out of reach from those who had created and tormented them.

She’d been wrong. Now her home, her friends, and the future she’s worked so hard for are all in danger… because of her. He’d vowed to protect every cyborg in Haven… but he’d take on the galaxy to keep her safe. Edge doesn’t have any illusions about who or what he is—a weapon forged in the heat of battle and quenched in the blood of his kills. As happy as he is for the rest of his brethren to settle into new lives, he can’t see himself doing the same.

It’s enough for him to watch over them from a distance, especially when it comes to River. She’s beautiful, frustratingly stubborn, and far too good for him. When an old enemy threatens their new home, these broken souls will have to decide which rules are worth breaking and which chances are worth taking. This book is dedicated to Craig. For all you are. For all you do. For saying “I do.” For being the hero in my own love story.

This story is also for Rosie. She knows why. PROLOGUE BEYOND THE EDGE of civilized space is a newly colonized planet. It’s a haven for the homeless, the hopeful, and those dreaming of freedom.
