Seth was the ultimate soldier and all around good guy who flies under the wire not attracting attention, until during training he meets Anastasia. She is a beautiful, ambitious, and competitive woman and when she lets it slip that there may be more to the training exercise than meets the eye for those who finish first, for Seth it is game on. One training session leads to another and ultimately to their being turned machine, spies, marriage, and breakup. Seth is still in love with Anastasia and has not seen her for quite a while until she shows up out of the blue seeking his help and hey - what's a guy to do.This is the fifth installment in the Cyborgs: More Than Machines series and what was really enjoyable is the author added snippets here and there of backstory so the reader, even when not having read prior installments, was able to understand the world and characters and you are never left feeling lost wondering what was going on. The book revolves around Seth and Anastasia's relationship past and current, as well as the current mission to uncover the origins of the technology that has changed them into human/cyborgs and led to the betrayal, as well as ultimately the murder of their kind.The story reads well and the different twists, turns, and emotions are very believable. The only difficulty I had was with Anastasia, I just did not like her character, although by the end of the tale did warm up a bit more to her. There is the heat and smexy fans of this author expect and enjoy in her writing along with the story, which does end with satisfaction and a bit of a jaw dropping tidbit that makes you want to continue on with the series to find out what will happen next.I received this book with a request for my honest review without any compensation whatsoever, other than the joy of reading a new book .
