A wall stands between the hungry and the food, and the kingdom’s defenders stand guard atop it.

Now the man protecting the walls seems determined to guard her too.Commander Harlan Wright was raised on a diet of training and discipline. His mind is calloused and his heart closed. These are not faults in a defender but assets. Harlan’s path is clear, until he meets a merchant girl who pulls him in a dangerous new direction. Blake might be a fighter, but she is fighting a losing battle. As the walls continue to go up, Harlan must choose between head and heart, duty and love.This is the first book in the medieval dystopian series Kingdom of Walls.
