For centuries, the royal family of Aridia has hosted The Choice, the competition where the eligible daughters of the Nobles of Aridia, come together to vie for the hand of the heir to the throne. This year,  Prince Carlos is the heir to the throne and is in need of a suitable wife. As well as the Kingdom of Aridia, which is in need of the entertainment and excitement that comes along with The Choice.  

Lady Madeline Prowess is...not a lady. She enjoys climbing trees, riding on her wild horse and definitely doesn't resemble the ladies that she's supposed to compete against- with her lack of curves and unruly hair. She surely doesn't want to slave away in front of a prince she doesn't care about. But, The Choice isn't what Madeline thinks it is. The palace is full of lies, deceit, betrayal and sabotage as each girl tries to win the hand of the ice cold Prince.

✔️Completed✔️ Though his mother wanted everything in life- always more, more, more- Aeric would have been perfectly content to live out a normal life. They never wanted for much, except for the ever-present hunger for money from his mother, and he could have stayed that way forever. But since before he was even born, his mother has tried time and time again to climb just one notch higher on the social ladder, and to grasp the riches that came with a higher title. It created problems and rifts, but the worst part was the planning and conniving to gain that status; the concocting of schemes that only someone who has gone a little bit crazy would ever dream of. Aeric was always the easily roped-in participant, hardly able to say no. This time, her scheming will not only break the law, but it take him farther than ever, into a whole new life. And to make matters worse, this new life is in a palace.

In the kingdom of Aeziris, a rebellion is rising, but its reins are not in the hands of its citizens. With a fine string entwining her heart with that of its chieftain, Esméralda must walk a knife-edge while navigating her way through a palace of masks and smiles that stab, and maybe just not lose her all in the process. •°• Book #1 in 'of aether' duology. Esméralda Alby has been hammered two things her whole life. One, she is beneath her step-sister; two, to work like a machine. Despite being the first-born daughter of a wealthy merchant, she is never introduced as such, let alone be treated with its honor. After her mother's death, the word love, for her, resonated with the hollow of meaninglessness until she met him, a charismatic man with a persistent aura of mystery. Eirik, the blossom to her flower, the blue to her sky - he who brought spring to her wilting life. He isn't a king as his name suggested, but to her, he had become hers. But when her father's orchards get infected, drastically dwindling their income, Esméralda is forced to leave to the palace to work as a handmaiden for a lady of The Queen's Trial, an event hosted to choose a suitable wife for the Crown Prince of Aeziris. It was supposed to be a job freeing her from the chains of the past, but how long could she stay sane when Eirik stands in front of her as the only heir to the throne of Aeziris, as Crown Prince Aedric Emsworth? There might just be more to the rebellion than what met the eye.

After her death, her boss, the Duchess Hawthorne, became the closest she has ever had to family-until she passed away, too, leaving nothing but uncertainty in her future. The manor is inherited by the duchess' nephew, the only blood-related member eligible to take over the entire estate. To Vincent Hawthorne, this is nothing but some extra wealth and the perfect reason to move out from under his mother's controlling personality. To Camilla, the change means fear. The inherent fear that these newcomers will get rid of her and deprive her of the only thing she has ever known as home. But when the hot, sexy bachelor duke claims his inheritance, none of them was expecting the late noblewoman to ensure Camilla's place in the manor...and in the duke's life. Tension and attraction nest within them, bringing the new boss and his employee impossibly closer and creating love where it shouldn't. But the upper crust has always been rotten from the inside, and the fragility of their feelings may not survive scot-free. Is Hawthorne Mansion hiding darker secrets than expected? Or will Vincent's duties stay in the way of their happiness?
