Help with a title

Hi there! I've been writing fiction on Substack since last November. I'm slowly finishing up my current serialized fiction and am planning out my next larger project.

The next serial I plan to write is a sci-fic adventure story. The story is entirely plotted and mostly written out. It is in the second stage of edits and I have been struggling with a title.

My two options are "The Rebel's Daughter" and "The Space Between the Stars". What do you like better? What would make you want to check out the story more?

Here is a synopsis/blurb if it helps:

A mother’s lie. A ruthless alien Federation. A kidnapped daughter.

When Scout uncovers a forbidden truth about her ancestry, she is swiftly captured and sent to a planet under Lorrokian control. Terrified and alone, she forms an uneasy alliance with a sharp-tongued, relentlessly sarcastic fellow prisoner.

With time running out, her mother Demi gathers a ragtag crew for a desperate rescue mission through hostile space. But the journey reveals more than enemies—it exposes betrayals, buried histories, and a secret powerful enough to destabilize entire governments.

To save Scout, Demi must risk everything.
To survive, Scout must become something she never knew she was.
