Blurb:
Pledge with Trustโฆ
Twenty-five thousand dollars to let some entitled, rich guy boss me around for a month?
Sign. Me. Up.
Most days, I did that for free and called it being female.
But it turns out the rumors circulating campus are true.
A secret society wants to pay me for their privilege.
Life has thrown me nothing but lemons since I lost my father.
Crippling student loans. Unpaid medical bills. Overdue rent.
Enter The Quest, the solution to all my problems.
To win it, I have to become a Maiden,
Navigate a snake pit of secrets and betrayal,
And fight to resist temptation, all for the chance at a fresh start.
Submitting to DโArthur Universityโs brotherhood of Knights wonโt be an easy feat.
Camelot Courtโs most notorious members will test my honor and my limits.
But to the victor goes the spoilsโฆ
And The Quest is one game I canโt afford to lose.
~~~~~~~
The Kingโs Maiden is first in a planned four-book series and will end on a cliffhanger. The series will conclude with resolution and some variation of happiness for the characters. This is a Why Choose romance, which means the FMC will end up with more than one love interest.
Swords may cross, if tensions rise high enough before the end of the series. It is a story about Knights, after all.
The King’s Maiden by Elle Parker
Tanya’s rating: 5 of 5 stars
I did not know while reading The Kingโs Maiden that this was this author’s debut book. This is also the start of the Camelot Court Series.
This is Quinn Everlyโs story. Quinn has had trauma in her life with her father dying. She is flat busted broke and canโt even afford an inhaler for her asthma. She has heard that she can make $25,000 for a month of having someone “boss her around”. Of course she signed up! (Sign me up too, please!)
Kingston DโArthur is โthe King of Camelot Courtโ. Each knight of the round table is to train a girl for the โQuestโ.
Landon Scott (Sir Lancelot) is to train Quinn. Thatโs all I am going to say about their story. No spoilers here.
I love when the author of a book that I am reading mentions another author that I know. In this case it was Tate James that this author wrote about.
The Kingโs Maiden ends on a huge cliffhanger. As Elle Parker ends the book, she asks for a Pledge of Trust to get to the next book, The Viperโs Lady and May canโt get here soon enough!
I very much-loved reading The Kingโs Maiden. I was glued to the book and story! Good job Elle Parker you exceeded my expectations.
Meet Elle Parker:
Elle Parker is not a fan of writing about herself and has recently learned she hates doing so more in third person. She would much rather be writing about her FMCs and the characters who love them.
Elleโs characters are flawed, tiny pieces of her soul. She loves giving each of them a space within the pages of a book. Her stories often involve unpacking trauma, finding their voices, and reclaiming the freest, truest versions of themselves. Because Elleโs writing journey has been very much the same in her own life, and she is really excited to share it with you.
In her free time, she enjoys reading voraciously, mothering imperfectly, and getting through the chaos of life anxiously. But above all, she loves writing, reading, and talking about books with her best friendsโthe ones she met on the Internet while writing Roswell fanfiction before anyone told her about
stranger danger.
In June of 2023, Elle began writing again after a long period away. The same day, her grandfather fell into a coma. During the twenty-three days he was on life support, she wrote and finished her first full length novel, completing it on the day he passed away. While processing grief and giving voice to pain
that had been long-repressed, she found she had a lot of stories inside her.
These stories vary in genre, subgenres, and tropes, because she couldnโt pick just one that felt right. But luckily, 2023 was also the year Elle Parker learned she didnโt always have to choose.
