Short description

Loving a cyborg isn’t easy! The timing couldn’t be worse for Jay and Tyler to take the next step. Tyler’s secrets come back to bite him, his destitute ex shows up on his doorstep and someone is manipulating her behind the scenes.

Extended description

Freaks in the City (sequel to the multi-award-winning Freaks of Greenfield High)

True love isn’t a cake-walk when your girlfriend’s a cyborg.

The timing couldn’t be worse for Jay to take her relationship with Tyler to the next level—especially when her idea of “the next level” proves to be vastly different to Tyler’s. Building a life together and adapting to each other’s quirks is challenging enough without the secrets they’re keeping blowing up in their faces. Their relationship is tearing Tyler’s family apart. Worse, the ex-girlfriend from hell shows up on their doorstep, destitute and desperate for a place to stay until she sorts out the latest hot mess she’s embroiled in.

Jay’s not exactly thrilled about Tyler’s ex turning up out of the blue, but it’s better to keep your enemies close, right? Sure enough, the ex has an agenda. But discovering who is manipulating her behind the scenes isn’t easy, even for a super-smart computer-savvy cyborg.

Review by: Steven Huang on Dec. 02, 2012 :
Amazingly well written and thought up. There were some spelling mistakes in the epub, but they were small and didn't detract from the experience at all.The ending was a huge and pleasant surprise for me, haha, i didn't expect it one bit. I really, really hope there will be a book three! :)

The one thing that could have made this series even better would be a deeper focus on the technical side of things, or even just more content on the science and theory behind it all--it would make things a lot more interesting, more real and deep. You should maybe mention how Jay charges herself, how she replenishes her supply of chemicals for pheromones. I would also like to see Tyler converse more with Jay about her machine aspects, that would be interesting.

Awesome book, well written and leaves up enough space for your own imagionation, read it in one breath (if I could actually read a book in one breath that is) and hoping for the next book in this serie :D
