    Stranded with the Cyborg

    Cara Bristol
    Ten years ago Penelope Isabella Aaron had been a pain in Brock Mann’s you-know-what. Much has changed in a decade: “PIA” as he code-named her, has grown up and is about to attend her first Alliance of Planets summit conference, and Brock has been transformed into a cyborg after a near-fatal attack. Now a secret agent with Cyber Operations, a covert paramilitary organization, Brock gets called in, not when the going gets tough, but when the going gets impossible. So when he’s unexpectedly assigned to escort Penelope to the summit meeting, he balks at babysitting a prissy ambassador. But after a terrorist bombing, a crash landing on a hostile planet, and a growing attraction to his protectee, Operation: PIA may become his most impossible assignment yet.

    Mason from False Hope by Marianne Rice @Mariannericeaut #RLFblog #romance

    Marianne Rice shares
    details about the creation of Mason Tucker in
    the book False Hope.
    About the Book
    Title False Hope
    Genre Contemporary Romance
    Author Marianne Rice
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
    Emma Fulton never had to worry about much. Socially-driven and happily
    single, she’s been blessed with charm, good looks, and supportive friends and
    family. But after a medical emergency, a dollop of family drama, and a series
    of near-tragic events, she finds she must question who she can trust.
    Preferring solitude to intimacy, Mason Tucker’s large family makes it
    difficult to escape large gatherings and small talk. When Emma’s mother marries
    into the family, he finds himself reluctantly drawn to the beautiful woman who
    is his complete opposite. But after helping her through a terrible discovery,
    Emma begins to break down some of Mason’s communication barriers and
    insecurities.
    When Emma asks for his assistance in tracking down family secrets,
    Mason finds himself following along in order to keep her safe. Unfortunately,
    not everyone has Emma’s safety in mind when danger waits for the perfect
    opportunity to strike.
    Introducing Mason Tucker
    Name: Mason Tucker
    Age: 28
    Gender: Male
    Birthplace: Newhall, New Hampshire
    Profession: Computer Systems Engineer
    Describe his/her body build, skin tone, height and weight. Include any
    unique features such as dimples, freckles, or scars: 
    Mason’s lickable washboard abs are proof he doesn’t let the countless
    hours he spends behind his computer screen catch up to him. With his dark hair,
    chocolate eyes, and deep-set dimples that are only seen on those rare occasions
    when he smiles, Mason Tucker exemplifies male beauty.
    Who is the significant
    other in your character’s life?
    Emma Fulton
    Tell us about this
    character, please.
    Emma is Mason’s opposite. She’s outgoing, confident and fights for
    what she wants…which happens to be Mason. After dislocating his shoulder in a
    rough game of flag football, Emma is laden with guilt and is determined to look
    after Mason’s physical well-being. Because, you know, he’s hot. He tries his
    hardest to keep his distance from her, and she tries even harder to keep them
    together. She’s stubborn to the core and will not let him slip away so easily.
    If you could only hear
    this character’s voice (but not see him) what characteristic would identify
    him?
    Mason only speaks when necessary so his words are short and to the
    point. His voice is deep and low, and he has a tendency to stutter when he’s
    around Emma.
    What is your character’s
    family like?
    Mason has two brothers who respect his need for privacy, but love to
    egg him on. Mason’s mom plays matchmaker quite a bit in this series, but she
    doesn’t get much of an opportunity to in this book. She pushed his older
    brother Connor and Meg together in False Start and does some meddling with
    Cole, Mason’s twin in the third book, False Impressions. Cole does some
    meddling of his own though, and gives Mason the kick in the pants he needs.
    His family is loving, accepting and are all outgoing and very social,
    while Mason is shy and reserved. He feels like he never fits in with his
    brothers. His oldest is a retired NFL player and his twin is Mr. Playboy of the
    town.
    Is he close to family?
    Yes. And he is extremely loyal to those he cares about.
    Does this character see
    morality as black-and-white, or with shades of gray?
    Everything is black and white in Mason’s eyes.
    How do others perceive
    your character based upon looks, and is is this assumption accurate?
    Because he shies away from social gatherings, Emma has never gotten to
    know him. While she’s best friends with Mason’s identical twin, she never felt
    the chemistry with him that she has with Mason. He’s incredibly fit but feels
    insecure next to his NFL brother and popular twin. He doesn’t speak much and
    Emma is constantly wondering what she’s said or done to piss him off.
    Does your character care
    about what others assume about him?
    Not one bit.
    Can your hero keep a
    secret (why or why not)?
    Of course he can keep a secret. He’s the nonjudgmental type who
    doesn’t divulge information and only speaks when necessary. If he’s asked a
    question he’ll answer honestly, but not say any more than what was specifically
    asked. However, ironically, Emma turns to him because he is the only one who
    hadn’t kept a secret from her.
    What inner doubt causes
    your character the most difficulty?
    Mason doesn’t think he’ll ever be good enough for Emma. She is his
    polar opposite and thrives on idle chatter and social gatherings while Mason
    would rather work on his computer and be by himself. He knows she deserves
    someone who can make her laugh, but he can’t resist the pull.
    What is your hero’s
    biggest personal flaw?
    Lack of communication. He doesn’t talk about his feelings and is
    afraid to open up.
    About Your Writer
    Why do you think your
    writer chose to write about you?
    Thankfully Marianne appreciates the strong and silent type. I believe
    I’m semi-modeled after her husband. He seems a little rough around the edges
    and doesn’t say much, but he’s reliable and the most loyal person you’ll meet.
    Kinda like me.
    What do you wish your
    writer had not told others about you
    ?
    It isn’t until the end of the book that my mom tells Emma some of my
    childhood skeletons. I’d rather not share them here. It makes me feel weak
    and…never good enough. Definitely not issues a strong man would want to have.
    What other character from
    your book do you think your writer should write a book about, and why?
    My cousin Paige hooks up with the detective in my book. She’s a minor
    character but I love her and think she deserves her own story. Of course my
    cocky identical twin gets his own book in June. Thankfully Marianne took him
    down a few pegs. It’s kinda nice to see my confident brother squirm.
    Why do you think your
    writer loves to write?
    For the hot men. She was always checking out my abs or dimples or some
    crap like that.
    Is there anything you’d
    like to say to your writer?
    Thank you for giving me a chance. So many heroes have smooth lines
    (like my brothers) but it’s nice to have the quiet awkward ones get the girl as
    well. And thanks for making me so hot. I’m normally not vain, but hey, I’m
    still a guy.

    Author Bio
    Marianne Rice writes contemporary romances set in small New England
    towns. Her heroes are big and strong, yet value family and humor, while her
    heroines her smart, sexy, sometimes a little bit sassy, and are often battling
    a strong internal conflict. Together, they deal with real life issues and
    always find everlasting love. When she’s not writing, Marianne spends her time
    buying shoes, eating chocolate, chauffeuring her herd of children to their
    varying sporting events, and when there’s time, relaxing with fancy drinks and
    a great read. She tries to make time for her husband too, but he often places
    behind her love affair with books.
