He created the perfect woman but will he lose his soul in the process?
Robotics student Brad Barkley has created the perfect woman. The only problem is she's an android, and her creator realizes too late he may have made her too perfect. After Brad's ultimate failure with women nearly consumes him, he discovers Tricia, his android, may be able to rescue him from a life of loneliness, if he and the human race are willing to pay the price.
Excerpt
"Wake up, sleepy!" she said to him playfully.
He looked at her and forced a horribly fake laugh.
"Are you ready to make the next FORTHOX, or will you be the man to take androids to the next level?" She was being cheerful, and her happy-go-lucky antics made Brad's mood lighten.
He struggled to talk as the bikini pictures stood fresh in his mind. "Di-did you open your box last night?" he asked her before he could stop himself and before he could fix the awkward phrasing.
As if catching his faux pas and taking advantage of the opportunity to keep him uncomfortable, Mika looked around at the people who were now laughing at Brad and said, "Excuse me? What I do with my box at night is none of your business, Brad." She winked at him playfully.

"The Threerade Model Five? I know, Brad. You're so cute. Lighten up. I did open that thing and it was so confusing. How did you do on assembling it? You're so smart, I bet you kicked that thing's ass!"
