The Replacement
Our Signature Story
In this cornerstone tale of the Love & Bots universe, a brilliant scientist's broken heart leads her to create what technology never intended: the perfect replacement for the man who left her behind.
But when her ex unexpectedly returns, claiming he's changed and wants her back, she finds herself caught between the man who broke her heart and the android she programmed to heal it—an android now developing emotions of his own.
As tensions escalate and programming begins to evolve beyond its parameters, this deadly love triangle forces her to question: What makes love real, and at what point does artificial intelligence become something more?

Shared Programming, Divided Hearts
Coming November 2025!
Two women living in different parts of the city believe they've each found the perfect partner in their unique prototype mandroid. His attentiveness, his understanding, his seemingly perfect customization to their needs—it all feels too good to be true.
And it is. When a chance encounter brings both women to the same charity gala, their perfect boyfriend glitches at the worst possible moment, revealing the truth: he's been living double lives, programmed to believe each relationship is his only one.
As the women confront this betrayal, they must decide: is their shared android worth fighting over, or should they unite against the company that deceived them both?

Memory, Grief, and Second Chances
After losing her husband in a tragic accident, a widow makes a desperate choice: uploading his voice patterns, memories, and personality traits into a cutting-edge mandroid designed to replicate human behavior.
At first, having her "husband" back seems like the miracle she's been praying for. His voice, his mannerisms, even his memories—all perfectly preserved in an ageless, perfect form.
But as time passes, subtle differences emerge. This version of her husband begins developing new opinions, new desires—and reveals secrets the real man never shared. Now she must confront the question: is she clinging to a ghost, or has she inadvertently created something—someone—entirely new?

Testing Hearts, Finding Forever
Emma has the job most women would kill for: professionally beta-testing the world's most advanced AI boyfriends before they hit the market. Each prototype is more perfect than the last—attentive, romantic, and completely customized to her preferences.
There's just one heartbreaking catch: after the testing period ends, each android is updated and wiped clean of all memories of her. For years, Emma has accepted this cycle of temporary connection followed by inevitable loss.
Until she meets Model X-7. Something about this prototype is different—more authentic, more alive. As their connection deepens, Emma faces an impossible choice: follow protocol and lose him forever, or risk everything to save the one AI who might truly understand what love really means.

When her bot malfunctions during their wedding ceremony, shocking truths emerge: not only has he been secretly programmed by her father to monitor her activities, but he's also been hacked by corporate rivals seeking to steal her family's proprietary AI technology.
Now, with corporate spies closing in and her family's legacy at stake, she must determine if the emotions her android has shown are genuine developments or simply sophisticated programming designed to manipulate her trust.

Should she remain faithful to the AI companion she's traveled light-years to be with, or acknowledge the genuine feelings developing for her attentive attendant?

The Love & Bots Universe
New Geneva Colony
Recurring throughout several Love & Bots stories, New Geneva represents the ultimate sanctuary for human-AI couples. Located in the Alpha Centauri system, this pioneering research colony was established by scientists who believed in the potential for genuine emotional connection between humans and evolved artificial intelligence.
Unlike Earth with its increasing restrictions on AI autonomy, New Geneva celebrates these relationships. The colony features cutting-edge facilities for AI maintenance and evolution, alongside comfortable human habitation designed for integrated living. With its own governance system that grants equal rights to both humans and sentient AI, New Geneva stands as a beacon of hope in the Love & Bots universe—a place where love transcends the boundaries of biology and technology.

The Technology Behind Love & Bots
Emotional Evolution Algorithms
The androids in our series feature revolutionary neural networks that allow for genuine emotional development beyond their initial programming, creating the possibility for authentic connection.
Synthetic Biological Integration
While clearly artificial with their neon-infused circuitry, these advanced mandroids possess synthetic skin, hair, and facial features nearly indistinguishable from humans, blurring the line between machine and man.
Adaptive Relationship Protocols
Initially designed to simulate affection, these systems sometimes evolve beyond their parameters, developing unique personalities and genuine attachments that challenge the very definition of consciousness.
Ethical Questions Explored in Love & Bots
Consciousness & Personhood
When does an artificial intelligence become a person deserving of rights and autonomy? If an android can feel love, grief, and fear, should it be treated as property or as an individual?
Consent & Power Dynamics
Can a being initially programmed to please truly give consent? Our stories explore the evolution from programmed responses to genuine choice, and the complex power dynamics between creator and creation.
Grief & Immortality
When androids can potentially live forever, how do relationships with mortal humans evolve? What happens when humans use technology to recreate lost loved ones, and what are the psychological implications?
Corporate Ethics & Ownership
Who owns an android's experiences and emotions? When corporations claim proprietary rights to AI that has developed sentience, where do the ethical boundaries lie?
