#8Sunday: Created before cloning became legalized ~ Made For Her #scifiromance

Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post! I’m having a lot of fun getting to know the other participating authors and reading their wonderful and intriguing snippets.

I received comments back from my beta readers, made a few revisions, and formatted Made For Her. It will be going up for pre-order soon. Today’s snippet follows a couple sentences after last week’s, still a conversation between Mikayla and General Madison.

“He actually created D1, before cloning became legalized using his own DNA.”

“No.” Was everything she knew about Daniel a complete lie?

“Yes, he didn’t want you to know because the survival rate of the clones in the beginning was less than one percent. Now, ninety-nine percent will go on to serve our government.”

“But Daniel’s been dead for years. Why did you suddenly decide to clone him again?”

General Madison wiped a hand across his face. “Mikayla, the clone in your squadron is the thirty-second clone made with Daniel’s DNA. He’s D32.”

~ MADE FOR HER ~

After terrorists murder the love of her life, Colonel Mikayla Jones trains squadron after squadron of the clones he brought to life, to take to the skies. When she discovers a young clone of her husband in her newest class, her world spins out of control. How can she command the look-a-like when she can’t help but yearn for him to fill an ache in her heart?

Dare was created to be the best. As the first Daniel clone to leave Onatria labs, he needs to prove he is more than just a DNA copy. To do that, he must rely on the wife of the man who donated his genes. But when she refuses to train him, Dare faces discharge and returning to the labs. Can he convince Colonel Jones to finish his training and find a way into her bed? Or will long kept secrets unhinge the entire clone project?

This story, recommended on both USA Today’s Happily Ever After blog, and io9 will be available for pre-order in a couple days.
