Cepheid Variable (The Sector Wars, Book Two): 2 Paperback – 23 Mar. 2020
Purchase options and add-ons
The crew of the Harpy are back and this time they’re armed for a battle.
Half the known systems want to kill them. The other half wants to be them. It’s hard trying to save the universe when the universe can’t make up its mind.
But when a gap appears in the Belt enticing every known species to peek through to the other side, things go from bad to worse.
And that’s not even taking into account the rogue Originator Class vessel out of New Earth.
Secret science stations, nimble gunboats, and a missing High Councillor; you’d think the crew have enough on their hands. But there’s more. The hack code that took out Zenthia Actual, the seat of the High Council of Zenith, is homing in on the crew of the Harpy. And it’s as if it knows who they are, where they are, and what sort of threat they are to its goals.
Either Kael and his crew keep one step ahead of their enemies. Or they get stomped on. Nothing like running for your life in a universe falling apart.

About the author

A bit of a romance junkie, Nicola can be known to devour as many as half a dozen books a week if she drinks too much coffee. But her real passion is writing thrilling romantic suspense stories with strong female leads and alpha male protagonists who know how to love them.
So far, she’s written well over 70 books. She might have caught the writing bug; here’s hoping there’s no cure!

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 March 2020Kael and the crew of the Harpy 2 are left reeling from loosing Cassi to Malcolm the Mutt. Then there is the hole in the belt that has appeared and needs to be explored, the whole universe declares war on New Earth and Kael and his crew are the only ones who can save the world he left many years ago. Kael and the crew have got to work through one problem after another and everyone wants to kill them or use them for their own purpose. This book grips you from the first page to the last, Zyla again takes a beating for the crew of the Harpy and Kael falls deeper into those black eyes that are growing more purple everytime he looks at her. There are twist and turns that are not expected that make you want to know more. When you finally get to the last page it will leave you wanting more. So come on Nicola we need the next one.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a ride!
Just as exciting as the first book! More intrigue much more info on a varuety of characters. Could not put this one down.
However, I really dont like cliff hangers and this will really leave you hanging.
Cannot wait for book 3!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good but cliffhanger
I enjoyed this story, the characters, the world building, as I did the sister series on the Originators. I also like the slow burn intimacy of the two main characters, as gratuitous, graphic sex just tends to dummy down some of the sci-fi that’s out there. On the downside, a cliffhanger I don’t appreciate because I end up forgetting aspects of the story by the time the next in series comes out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant as always!
She's done it again my friends! A captivating series that's futuristic setting is just the tip of the iceberg! Not my usual genre but so worth expanding my horizons!
