Reaper by Kelsey Nicole Price

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When the Global Allegiance terminated all Cyborgs, rumors were rampant that they still existed, either hidden away with wealthy collectors or—even more scandalous—part of the Cyborg Rebellion.

Aria

I never intended to join the cyborg rebellion. In fact, cyborgs never crossed my mind until my best friend fell in love with one named Dash. Their love indirectly lead to me being kidnapped to be used as a bargaining chip. I’ve been rescued and now I’m free…kind of. During my time in captivity, I inadvertently became the mother to cyborg child and may have accidentally started to also have feelings for a certain cyborg. Not just any cyborg — the leader of the cyborg rebellion. Mr. Gray, Annoying and Wielding-a-battle-axe bad-to-the-bone cyborg. I’m not sure Reaper is the one but I can’t keep my hands or my heart from wanting him.

Reaper

I am the cyborg rebellion. I make sure that those in my care are safe and well taken care of, but neither of those things requires me to be nice. I’m a Military Model. I don’t do nice. Well, I didn’t until I saw her.
Now I’m suffering from system wide malfunctions that includes wanting to give out hugs, and the random urge to hop up on tabletops and jump for joy. And it’s all because of one tiny blonde female.
Aria has invaded my processors and hijacked my circuits. How can one female cause so much chaos?
And how do I make her mine?

“Welcome to the cyborg rebellion.”

The Hero: Reaper (a.k.a. 825-397) – he was the first military cyborg and is now the leader of the cyborg rebellion against the Global Alliance. The GA made owning cyborgs illegal and made it their mission to destroy all cyborgs because they saw them as defective since they had a soul and couldn’t be controlled.

The heroine: Aria – best friend to Iris from the first book in this series. Aria was afraid for her friend when she initially saw that Iris had cyborgs in her house since they were illegal and having one was a death sentence. So, she wasn’t very nice or understanding at first. Though when she saw that cyborgs were really just people on the inside, despite their computer chips and enhancements, she came around.

The story: Aria rubbed Reaper the wrong way from the start and vice versa. When Aria was kidnapped by the Global Allegiance, Reaper and his team of cyborgs came to the rescue. Though not before she was experimented on and tortured. She also saw many dead human women and dead cyborg babies in the lab and among them, there was one living cyborg child whom she bonded with.

Now she is at the headquarters of the cyborg rebellion, doing her best to get herself and little Theo through the trauma they both suffered. She doesn’t want to talk about what happened to her in captivity, yet Reaper keeps on her to open up. They initially don’t get along, but it isn’t too long before their attraction for each other takes over.

I like this story as much as the last one, there are so many colorful characters (literally and figuratively, since the different types of cyborgs are different colors). I just love a lot of good supporting characters in a story. Theo, the little cyborg was so cute and I just love some of the other characters and can’t wait to read their individual stories. This one mainly took place at the cyborg rebellion headquarters which is underground and has lots of space and apartments for all the cyborgs and the few humans who are with them.
