Synopsis (Goodreads):
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.Thoughts on Doc's Orders: It's Doc's turn to find his special someone and she's an alien outsider from a dangerous planet. Who glows. Which is kinda cool. Plus, you know, her people have adapted to their extremely hostile environment and she's more than a match for the cyborg who's half machine, half beast.
***
A fully functional cyborg is balanced. His machine half and his organic half work together to produce the perfect warrior.
Doc isn’t fully functional.
The G Model operates at the two extremes. When his machine is in complete control, he’s the logic-driven medic, saving lifespans. Once his organics take charge, he becomes the savage beast…and beings die.
Both sides of Doc want to be the first to claim his female.
Allinen is one of the few beings in her small settlement who wasn’t born with a fated mate. Determined to belong somewhere, she has crafted a plan to leave the planet.
That plan doesn’t involve a huge stormy-eyed male who alternates between cool seduction and out-of-control ravishment. Doc isn’t her fated mate. Allinen knows that. But his dual nature and forbidden embraces tempt her to forget forever and indulge in more immediate delights.
Neither side of Doc views their relationship as being temporary. Her conflicted cyborg is prepared to battle her family, her planet and death itself to keep her.
As the only unmated female in her settlement, Allinen is used to being an outsider. While she adores her niece, the rest of her small family is kind of rough on her and it's taken its toll. The poor woman wants to leave and see what the universe has to offer, but she's also bound to the settlement by her love for her niece. Which sounds like a not terrible thing, but when things go bad for her people, they go VERY bad and Allinen's status as an outsider among her people doesn't afford her any security.
Frankly, I think she was lucky to have found Doc and the cyborgs when she did. Not just because it protected her in the end (which it did), but because her people were kind of sticklers about protocol and their place in their settlement and she messed everything up by being born different.
Since I'm all for cyborgs finding their special someone, Allinen and Doc's meeting worked out for everyone in the end. Well, except for half Allinen's tribe, but that wasn't her or Doc's fault so...whoops?
Cyborgs, man. Still loving them and their gruff, grumbly, sometimes bloodthirsty ways.
