To make things even more awkward, he's just been appointed Rachel's new Protector.
Nineteen year old Logan McEntire is the orphaned outcast who Jared took on as his apprentice and he's also the boy who broke Rachel's heart two years prior. In order to escape, she'll have to defy not only The Commander, Baalboden's tyrant leader but her newly appointed Protector as well a man with the potential to do her more harm than The Commander and the evil creature that lurks beyond the wall combined. (I would volunteer to go with her and offer to carry her Switch.)ĭanger lies beyond the wall but it could be more dangerous for Rachel to stay. He taught her well, so well in fact, that when he fails to return home after his most recent courier mission and is declared dead, Rachel decides to go looking for him. (She can gut you like a fish!) Her father Jared, Baalboden's top courier made sure she knew how to wield a sword and what to do in order to survive the Wastelands. While most girls within the walled city of Baalboden were learning the importance of how to cook, sew and behave properly in public, sixteen year old Rachel Adams was also learning how to take care of herself with sharp objects. It's a thrilling adventure of love, loyalty and hope that will suck you in from the first page. This book had me laughing, crying, and chain chewing (gum) because it was so intense at times.
