But with each encounter, the lines of allegiance blur, and Alina begins to wonder if maybe there's a chance for peace here For something more, for both their kinds.
Or maybe she's just looking for excuses to give in to her darkest desires.

Rescued by the Robot Enforcer (Villains Do It Better)Fantasy · Alexandra Norton
In danger, protected by a faceless killing machine. I fight not just for survival, but to keep my heart in one piece.
Tisha Varda is the lone witness against a crime boss who rules the city with an iron fist. When the police fail to stop multiple attempts on her life, she decides she's had enough: she's out. Or she would be, if the cops hadn't forced a masked robot enforcer upon her to make her testify… no matter the cost.
ANSL-5.2, experimental autonomous sentinel, has one directive: Ensure Tisha's ass is in that courthouse to deliver her testimony.
But why did they have to make a killing machine look and sound like… well, that? ANSL-5.2 is the embodiment of a perfect weapon. Huge and decked out in all black armor, its face is shrouded in the void of a full-face visor. Its raspy baritone oozes assertive confidence, designed to intimidate and elicit compliance. It should not be making her stomach clench. And her face shouldn't feel so damn hot each time that visor slants her way across the room.
He's a faceless killing machine sent to keep her in line. Why'd they have to make him so damn sexy?
Rescued by the Robot Enforcer is a steamy sci-fi romance novella featuring a masked robot sentinel transcending his code when faced with the raw depths of human desire.
