Synopsis (Goodreads):

This not-at-all-dead cyborg needs to be needed.

***

Seeking a change after solar cycles of war, Halleli enters a lottery on her home planet. Her wishes are granted. She wins a home of her own in the middle of nowhere.

The only problem is…that home is haunted.

Objects slide off horizontal surfaces. The floor howls. And the resident ghost, a sexy spirit she has named Chad, roams the space. He sports soulful dark eyes, a deep growly voice, and shiny silver hands big enough to handle a female’s abundant curves.

Halleli wants him, and that is wrong, so very wrong. A relationship between them is impossible. He is dead. And she is…not.

Valor isn’t dead. He isn’t a ghost. And his name isn’t Chad. He’s an E Model cyborg determined to claim his female…once he can convince her he’s alive.

Achieving that feat might require clever words, some heated kisses…and a whole lot of explosives.

Thoughts on Needing Valor: It's Valor's turn to find his special someone and I am so here for it! Why? Because these cyborgs deserve all the love after everything they've been put through. Cadet's cyborgs in particular are all damaged in some way after their years in the hands of the Humanoid Alliance and while they desperately want to find their genetic match, most of them think they won't. Or that their damage makes them undeserving.

OH MY HEART!

Finding Halleli is...well, it's beyond anything Valor expected. Sure, sure, she thinks he's a ghost when she first lays eyes on him, but she thinks he's a SEXY ghost. And since he's very much not a ghost, that works out nicely. Once they rescue a few trapped cyborgs (by blowing up Halleli's house, as it turns out), they have all the time in the worlds to explore just how sexy she thinks the big cyborg is.

Like I said, I'm here for these cyborgs to find love and YESSSSS. Valor and Halleli do just that. Plus, they get to rescue a few more of Valor's forgotten and abandoned brethren and that's always a win!
