Preview Burden of Power

Description:
Being a woman in a man’s world means the first person Ria needs to prove herself to…is Ria.

Fiercely independent and disenchanted with romance, Ria resents the expectation to marry. Even worse, the king has withdrawn from public life, increasing the pressure on the first female heir of Rahm to prove her readiness to rule. 

But Ria isn’t one to indulge in hand-wringing. When the king gets embroiled in a power struggle over repairs to Rahm’s outer defensive wall, Ria sees an opportunity. She approaches Merek, captain of the Wall Guard, and proposes a tour of the damaged areas, giving her the first real opportunity to act in her father’s stead. And if she happens to find a tolerable suitor in her travels, all the better. 

But Merek doesn’t have time for the princess’s schemes. A foreign criminal network has infiltrated a critical border city and he resents being pulled away from his post. To abandon his investigation could endanger people he cares about, but to refuse the princess could eliminate any hope of reconciling with the king. Caught between conflicting duties, Merek agrees.

Stubborn wills collide as the career military leader and emerging monarch wrestle in a shifting balance of power. As they learn to be vulnerable and trust each other, Ria and Merek merge their strong personalities into a dynamic partnership. But this alliance comes at a steep cost when the growing threat to Rahm becomes dangerously personal.

Part political fantasy, part relationship drama, Burden of Power is the first in the completed Wallkeeper Trilogy by debut author, Caren Hahn. (Books 2 and 3 are coming soon!) The richly layered narrative includes elements of combat, organized crime, romance, and political intrigue—all within the context of relationships. Burden of Power appeals most to readers who appreciate a well-crafted plot and characters who'll keep you wondering about them long after you've read the last page. Immerse yourself in the world of Wallkeeper today!
