In the decade Anika has waited to be called up, she hasn't managed to land a mate/husband/domestic partner or have the children she desperately wants, but she isn't the kind of person to give up. When she finally gets the call she's been waiting for, she takes the money she's saved and locates a 'lifelike' robotic domestic, model Hercules 500 and then heads to the black market for 'seedlings'-her future family to implant once she gets to the new world.Things start to go sideways almost immediately.While acquiring her 'seedlings' on the black market, she gets caught up in a sting operation to capture the dealer and only manages to escape capture because of the robot she's named Chance-for good luck.And the domestic, Chance, is way more lifelike than she'd expected.She'd had no clue the Hercules series was so realistic!Because they weren't.She's now the proud owner of a rogue cyborg soldier. She has a cop on her tail that she can't shake loose. And the god-like security guard she meets onboard ship is another rogue on the run.
