3½⭐︎ rounded up.

A cute, quick introduction to Honey Phillips' latest series. It's hard to dislike cowboy cyborgs on terraforming Mars. I am looking forward to the full length books.

Honestly glad I picked this one up. I wasn't so sure about Honey Phillips after reading Anna and the Alien. High Plains Cyborg is short and sweet, avoids some annoying tropes (TSTL), and leans into others. Already downloaded the next volume.

Cyborgs. Who knew.

Series: Cyborgs on Mars #0.5
Rating: 3 stars - I liked it

When Jo’s partner abandons her as soon as they arrive on Mars it just reinforces that she can only trust herself. She is determined to claim a settlement on Mars but what she doesn’t expect is to be attracted to the town's cyborg Ranger.

This was a very quick but good cyborg romance. Jo is determined to build a life on Mars without the help of anyone. She refuses C-487, also known as Clint, help because she is determined to learn how to do everything herself. I loved how Clint let her be independent but still watched over her and helped out around her homestead. He was quite adorable in wooing her.

This is a very interesting world with cyborgs and creating a life on Mars. I like that these homesteads actually take work and the living on Mars isn’t glossed over. This world is dangerous and Phillips does a good job at portraying that without taking away from the romance building between the couple. I am really interested in seeing how this series goes and learning more about the cyborgs on Mars.

You can also find my reviews at Red-Haired Ash Reads.

This is about Jo who moves to Mars so she can get her own little part of land to work on. Clint is a cyborg living on Mars operating as the law. When he meets Jo he is directly attracted to her and human feelings start to surface that he thought he lost after becoming a cyborg.

This was so freakin cute and awesome. I love both characters and the story was great. I am so much looking forward to all the other books, since this was only a very short prequel to the actual series.

I like Honey Phillips books a lot and I am eager to read much more of her. This is definitely a series I will enjoy reading now.

Sweet, quick read... hoping that this is the start of a Honey Phillips series that I will enjoy!!

Love the planet building, I’ve always loved cyborgs. Clint is such a sweetheart. I love that Jo is very independent. Epilogue was so sweet. Morgan is up next, he seems even sweeter..
