Steampunk Cyborg by Eve Langlais – 2*

Agatha “Aggie” Bowles goes to a romance convention with her friends she ends up being kidnapped by a steampunk cyborg. Jwlls, pronounce Jules, kidnaps Aggie to get the cog that is hanging around her next. It is a priceless treasure that the cyborgs need.

I really wanted to like this story as I love most of Eve Langlais’ books but other than the writing being spot on like all of her books I hated this book. There is the insta attraction which doesn’t work for me. A woman who has been kidnapped and of course she wants to sleep with her kidnapper almost immediately after being taken. When she discovers that the only way for Jwlls and his friends to get the artifact is for her to die she takes off. He catches up to her almost immediately and is all apologetic about what his friends wanted but he loved her too much to do that. The end. That is literally how it goes. If you are looking for a good book I would not recommend this one but she has several others that are amazing and funny.
