Slave of Saharic — Brenda Williamson

Renn Saharic needs a new Interactive Partner. At an auction selling replicas of women, he picks out the one he wants, but is outbid. However, luck is on his side when the new owner thinks the replica is broken, and sells Renn the love doll. Taking her home, Renn grows attached to his new possession and plays with her as if he were a boy in a toyshop, wishing she were real.

Cadie is a slave from the planet Ceres. She pretends to be a replica to escape imprisonment and ends up on Earth in the hands of a new master that has no idea she's real. While devising a plan for her freedom, she discovers Renn isn't as bad as other men she's known. His gentle passion makes it hard for her to leave. But love can't be real if she stays to be the Slave of Saharic.
