Performance Criteria: Cyborg Desires, #1

By Mandy M. Roth and Reagan Hawk

What do you get when you have an IQ that is off the charts, the inability to let go of someone you love and a lot of spare parts? The man of your dreams, of course. Dr. Aeron Braxton is on the verge of unveiling her newest creation--a droid who can pass as either human or Vanos.

An alien race took the man she loved away from her, but her revenge is at hand. Aeron has rebuilt Brad into a living, breathing killing machine she hopes will save the outer quadrants from a mass Vanos invasion.

Too bad the brilliant scientist didn't calculate the probabilities of love getting in the way.

Mandy M. Roth

Mandy M. Roth grew up fascinated by creatures that go bump in the night. From the very beginning, she showed signs of creativity-writing, painting, telling scary stories that left her little brother afraid to come out from under his bed. Combining her creativity with her passion for the paranormal has left her banging on the keyboard into the wee hours of the night. Her books have won numerous awards, including an RT nomination for Best Paranormal Erotic. Mandy lives on the shores of Lake Erie with her husband, their three boys and a boxer pup named Hercules. When Mandy is not writing, she's doing cover art for various places with a super double secret brush name. She also cohosts a live talk radio show, Raven Radio, which was recently mentioned in RT Book Reviews, and she has given several marketing workshops for authors. She has a bachelor of science degree and is currently working on her master's degree in marketing. To learn more about Mandy send an email to [e-mail].
