![The Second Heart by [Kafkalas, EA]](https://images-fe.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51XWjPVvuhL._SY346_.jpg)
Not a bad story--I'm glad I read it--but a little choppy at times. My main criticism is that the science fiction aspect of it is really weak. For example (SPOILER ALERT), the reason Alixia is supposed to assassinate Kate is that in the future, Kate (as President) will put spent nuclear weapons in orbit, and they will drift into Alixia's home planet, destroying it. However, early on it is established that Nemow, Allie's homeworld, is three GALAXIES away from Earth. The NEAREST galaxy to Earth is over a million light years from us. It would take hundreds of millions, if not billions, of years for a rogue weapon to drift from Earth to Nemow, given its distance. I was definitely scratching my head.
That said, the characters were interesting and sympathetic enough to keep me reading, and I would recommend the book for those interested in the romance aspect.
