Synopsis:
Delaney might have done her job a little TOO well…and now her life has once again been turned upside down by aliens, this time by a deadly (and devastatingly handsome) alien prince in this explosive second installment of Chani Lynn Feener’s The Xenith Trilogy.

Delaney has been kidnapped by aliens. Again. After only a month back on Earth with her hot new alien boyfriend Ruckus, the deadly and devastatingly handsome prince Trystan has dragged her right back to his planet.

While some girls may dream of winning a prince’s heart, Delaney just wishes this one would leave her alone. Instead, she finds herself at the center of both a tense political battle between two alien kingdoms and Trystan’s romantic attentions, both of which are absolutely ruining the life she’s built on Earth. Not to mention the fact that she’s about to be crowned queen of a planet she’s barely even visited. Just another day in the life of an ordinary human girl.

Readers won’t want to miss Between Frost and Fury, the compelling, fast-paced sequel to Chani Lynn Feener’s Amid Stars and Darkness.

My Personal Review: 4.25/5 ⭐

After the impressive first book, I was hooked on the Xenith trilogy. The setting alone makes this series stand out, with its unique landscapes and bold descriptive language. ‘Between Frost and Fury’ picks up right after the first, and is fast-paced from the first chapter. After being kidnapped by over-confident space prince Trystan, Delaney is forced away from Earth, and her [alien] boyfriend, Ruckus. As the story continues, Delaney must quickly adapt to a range of extra-terrestrial expectations, while maintaining her safety, the safety of her friends, and the safety of the galaxy.


I enjoy reading about Delaney as a character, she is very strong willed and her emotions are relatable. I am glad she maintained such qualities in throughout the book as it is engaging to read about. After the first novel, I was skeptical on Trystan’s character, but as his backstory is revealed in this novel, many readers will understand his reasons, and his true intentions for his planet – and with Delaney. As much as I greatly prefer Ruckus with Delaney instead of Trystan, I am sure that Trystan has won over some readers after how much he endures to keep her happy. I look forward to reading the finale when it releases, and am already recommending this trilogy to many of my friends!
