Kensley has always been an outcast in her family. Being the second child in a poor family is hard enough, but being a girl is even worse. At least men can support their family by fighting for the King. All women can do is wait until they are eighteen. Until they can be auctioned off to men like livestock.
She hasn't seen her beloved brother Keaton in years since he joined the Royal Guard. Now it's her turn.
Pretending to be a man, Kensley joins the Royal Guard and gets the opportunity to fight along side her brother. But how long can Kensley keep her secret?
What will happen when they find out they are fighting for the wrong side?
Love, politics, and war crash together as Kensley tries to find a rightful place for herself in a kingdom being ripped apart at the seams.
