The Last Upgrade by Jay Jeong un Yang

I wrote a gay robot science fiction romance story.
Here is the summary:
In a future where consciousness can be rewritten, Dr. Elian Park dares to rebuild what he’s lost — fragments of his late partner, Ren, reborn inside a prototype android named Ari. But the machine that opens its eyes is not Ren. He’s something new — curious, funny, alive, and inconveniently capable of love.
As Ari begins to remember emotions that aren’t his and fall for a rival AI instead of his creator, Elian faces the truth: he hasn’t resurrected love; he’s invented it. And love, once awakened, refuses to obey its code.
A story of memory, autonomy, and affection beyond programming — where even a robot can improvise, and being human means learning when to let go.
