Synopsis (Goodreads):
Fragile. Stubborn. His.

Ghost, a C Model cyborg, has disconnected his machine from his human side. Severely damaged, he knows two things—the curvy human female on his ship belongs to him and he must keep her safe. He’ll stop at nothing to protect her, claim her, make her his.

Primitive. Damaged. Hers.

Lethe has seen the savage side of beings. The courageous Rebel captain has never met a male like Ghost. Overpoweringly dominant, he appeals to her on a primal level, filling her mind with thoughts of sweet surrender, hard kisses, and body-heating encounters against the warship’s walls.

They are two broken beings, one determined to protect, the other intent on flying into danger. Can love heal them both before they face their common enemy?
Thoughts on Ghost of the Machine: Ohmygoodness. Ghost. The cyborg who fractured himself so he didn't have to bear the heartache of all the females and children he couldn't save. The cyborg who still managed to save several of his brothers' women despite the orders he'd been given. OH, MY HEART. To say I have a massive soft spot for deeply damaged heroes who drag themselves out of the darkness is an understatement. Ghost checked off all my literary damaged hero boxes and then some.

The guy is a mess and he's hanging on by a thread when we first meet him, but he is hanging on. The appearance of his mate helps him grab a little tighter. And while Lethe might not be quite as damaged as Ghost, she also has some things she needs to work on. Namely, that when a cyborg says something is forever, she needs to trust it. Ghost will always be there for her, no matter how crossed his wires get or how damaged his body becomes. He said he would be and cyborgs don't lie.

As always, I'm LOVING these cyborgs and their utter devotion to keeping their special someone safe. They might have been manufactured to be perfect killing machines, but they have hearts and souls in their metal frames and I SUPER love that.
