Android Affection - Book 2: Unveiling

Android Affection #2

by Beau Van Dalen

After a rocky first-meeting, Ian and Gilbert form a temporary partnership, to track down the organization behind the mysterious murders and increasing disappearances occurring in Exia’s outskirts.

This new relationship has Ian questioning his feelings for Gilbert—androids shouldn’t be endearing and handsome, like his new partner in crime. 'What is wrong with this android?'

Meanwhile, as Saki tires of being forced to work for the Omega Alliance against her will, rumors surface about Ian’s reappearance, giving Saki the hope of finally being reunited with Ian to tell him the truth: that she’s not dead.

But will the reunion Saki has been dreaming of for years go as planned?

Or, will Ian come to despise her, once he realizes Saki has been working for the organization that has caused them so much pain?

“And you. I have found, that after spending a multitude of hours together, I wish… to protect you.”

As a child Ian was orphaned due to a brutal murder from an android Assistant now he needs to work together with Gilbert, an Assistant slowly gaining sentience.
Ian is realizing his world is not as it seems while Gilbert is struggling to comprehend human emotions. Together they embark on a journey to find Ian’s missing friend and defeat an organization hell bent on causing havoc and murdering innocent civilians.

Ian and Gilbert have my whole heart, these two idiots make the perfect enemies to lovers pairing. The slow burn is real with these two, but’s it’s so enjoyable to see them come to terms with how they feel and realize there is more to the world than what they previously knew.

this had everything that i loved in the first book, and more! the scope of the world expands by the end of the first book, but in here, you get even more details about gilbert, saki, and the various organizations at large.

i love when there is a robot in any piece of media that is slowly but surely feeling more and more human, and the way that ian notes the way that gilbert is struggling with his emotions has got to be one of my favorites! and on top of that, i love the care that was put into ian’s individual progress as a character in this installment.

can’t wait for the next one!!
