I really do love this. Robin Ludwig Designs did a great job, and I couldn't be happier.

Blurb:
Dr. Dean
Frey is a man of science. His lifelong desire to create a better future for
mankind has led him to the prestigious, and highly mysterious, Wilderness
Institute of Scientific Research & Technology, as the head of their
Robotics Engineering department. Building on the research and designs of others
before him, Dean’s own genius culminates in the successful creation of
Anthony—the first fully-automated, free-thinking android prototype. And now Wilderness
wants to sell Anthony to the military.
Unwilling
to allow his achievement to become weaponized, Dean reaches out to a former
Wilderness employee with the resources to help him steal Anthony and relocate
them both to safety. He’s put into contact with the very secretive Nick and
Olivia, who ask for one simple thing in return: trust us, no matter what you
see or hear. Blind trust isn’t in Dean’s cautious nature, but he has no other
choice.
For
telekinetic Olivia, rescuing a fellow Psion from a life of imprisonment and
experimentation is one of her favorite things. Being paid is nice, but she’ll
do the job for free, if it means giving Wilderness the finger. When Olivia’s
reclusive mentor solicits her and her telepathic partner Nick’s help in
smuggling a very special Project out of Wilderness, they jump at the chance to
infiltrate their former home and do some internal damage to the institute that
created them.
With
their combined knowledge of the facility, breaking Anthony out of Wilderness should
have been easy—but Olivia learned a long time ago to never underestimate her
enemies, or the lengths they’ll go to retrieve what’s theirs. And this time,
the price for stealing the Project may be more than she’s willing to pay.

This may be a stupid question, but why does it say "Part 1" instead of "Book 1"? "Part 1" makes it sound like a serial, which is weird, because I thought there'd be two full-length novels. So I'm a bit confused.
Part one of two. Book one of two. I'd originally planned to release it as a six part serial, but then chose not to go that route, and I just kept using "part." But to me, using "book" makes it sound like an ongoing series, instead of a duology.
