Book Description:
Caeli Crys isn’t living—she’s surviving. On the run after the genocide of her empathic people, she witnesses a spaceship crash near her hidden camp. When she feels the injured pilot suffering from miles away, she can’t help but risk discovery to save his life.
Commander Derek Markham awakens stranded on an uncharted planet. His co-pilot is dead, his ship is in ruins, and he’s only alive because a beautiful young woman is healing him with her mind.
As Derek recovers, Caeli shares the horror of her past and her fear for the future. When Derek’s command ship, Horizon, sends rescue, Derek convinces Caeli to leave with him. But his world is as treacherous as hers—full of spies, interplanetary terrorist plots, and political intrigue. Soon the Horizon team is racing to defend an outlying planet from a deadly enemy, and Caeli’s unique skills may just give them the edge they need to save it.

Release date: June 6, 2017
Tour dates: May 22 to July 14, 2017

Book Description:
In the second installment of the award-winning Horizon series, Dr. Caeli Crys returns to her war-torn world to fight for those she left behind.
Almagest, Caeli’s home, stands on the brink of revolution. Long hidden from the rest of the galaxy, the once-peaceful planet suffers under a regime that grows more violent and oppressive by the day. Marcus, Almagest’s dictator, is building an arsenal of alien weaponry by selling empathic children into slavery. A resistance has risen, but they are outmanned, outgunned, and in hiding.
Joined by Commander Derek Markham and his elite squadron of operatives, Caeli embarks on a dangerous mission to find the Resistance, rescue her captive people, and save her civilization from destruction.
My Review:
I read the first book and knew that Caeli and Derek were going to have many more adventures. I did not expect them to go back to her home planet so soon, but rather thought that the author would save that for book 3. I am glad that she didn't. There is a feeling of emergency that is on Caeli's planet and the "citizens" of her planet needed help. ASAP. The Dictator is wasting no time in getting rid of the resistance. I read this book in only a few days so I could find out if the resistance was successful or not. Derek is stronger and has more self worth in this book, which made him fun to read about. I am curious to see how the characters move forward in book 3. All in all this book kept me reading and rooting for the outnumbered, I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy, All opinions are my own.
