Synopsis: Delaney’s entire world is thrown into chaos after she is mistaken for Lissa Olena, an alien princess hiding out on Earth in order to escape an arranged marriage.

Kidnapped by the princess’s head bodyguard, Ruckus, and imprisoned in an alien palace, Delaney is forced to impersonate the princess until Olena can be found. If she fails, it will lead to an alien war and the eventual enslavement of the entire human race.

No pressure or anything.

Factor in Trystan, the princess’s terrifying betrothed who is intent on unraveling all her secrets, and her own growing feelings for Ruckus, and Delaney is in way over her head.

Review: I really loved this book! It was such a cool sci-fi romance and I instantly fell in love with the writing. The book did well with the character development and the world building. The book also was very well paced.

If I had to say a downside of this novel it would be that the book was a bit weird with the different time skips, but overall I really enjoyed it!

Verdict: Definitely recommend!
