The Consort

by Charity Mae

She'd sell her soul to fix his. But will her secret give her the power or bring the kingdom to its doom?

Kascia is desperate. Terrified after the king's assassination, this leading contender for the prince's hand is hurt and confused when the prince withdraws all attention and affection. Can she risk approaching him when it could result in her execution?

Struggling to keep her heart from shattering again, Kascia desperately searches for a way around the rules. But at every turn, instead of ways to safely reach her prince, Kascia uncovers dangerous plots from the royal court, the other Chosen, and even dark forces outside of the palace.

Can Kascia navigate the rules to stay in the game and save the prince, or will she and her people hang together?

The Consort is the suspenseful fourth book in The Enthronement series, an epic dystopian fantasy romance. If you like royal intrigue, desperate romance, and dangerous secrets, you'll love Charity Mae's engrossing twisted fairytale.

About the author

Hi! Welcome to my Goodreads. Can I just say I'm so happy you're here? I don't know if you're here for funzies or for a paper you have to write or maybe a theory video or article you're working on. Either way, thanks for coming, and let's get into the nitty-gritty.

I've been writing since I was ten years old. I wrote my first 700+ book when I was eleven. I started these games as almost fan fiction that morphed into the Custod world I use for most of my stories today.

I specialize in fairytale retellings in more dramatic than fantastical styles, dealing with more political or the struggle of war angles than in pure wonder, but I make sure to have a healthy (whoops too much) dose of romantic and hopeful elements as well. I feel stories should help us learn about relationships, people, the world around us, and teach us hope in how to handle the horrors life can dish out in a healthy, enjoyable escapist type of way. That's why I like young adult styles because it allows more exploration of learning than adult styles.

Some of my favorite books include Harry Potter, The Selection, Michael Vey, Lord of the Rings, Hunger Games, and lots more, but that should give you a feel for the styles I like. I'm also into classics like Shakespeare, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Phantom of the Opera, The Scarlet Pimpernel, and Lord of the Rings (as hey it's a classic too). I struggled with reading as a child. I loved it but found it hard so audiobooks were my main way of stepping into new worlds. Still an audiobook fan!

I wrote my first book, the rough version of Rising during my teen years, and published it while in college. It has since been republished and revamped as The Custod Chronicles Rising. I had plenty of time to learn my craft because I was homeschooled and so integrated my passion for writing with my studies. I graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho with a degree in Media Marketing with a minor in English to help further my writing dreams.

I currently live in Weed, CA where I write most every day, watch lots of YouTube and movies, enjoy going to a musical now and then, and hone my passion for ballroom dancing.
