The Life and Times of the Heir and the
Keeper
A Caspian University Novel
Etta
King
They say college is a lot of things; a haven, a
four-year party, the place you met the girl – or guy – of your dreams. What
they don’t tell you is, the best part of college is the drama YOU bring to the
table! After all, that dirty little secret, that not-so-little white lie, and
those texts you wish you could erase from cyberspace can’t stay hidden forever.
At CU, someone’s always watching, and you better hope there isn’t a camera
phone on hand when you get caught.
It’s the Spring Semester, but it’s not all fun
in the budding sun for Jon and Franz. Follow them as they delve through the
politics of secret societies, the inevitable drama of the F-word (that’s
FAMILY, for the uninitiated), creepy Resident Advisors, creepier residents and
girls who don’t always say what they mean. Who wouldn’t need two months to
recuperate?
Cheers! And GL!
Book
One
The Life and Times of Elizabeth and the
Duchess
They say these are the best years of your life.
That you can never get them back. Well with tempting teaching fellows,
b****-tastic roommates and secret societies, you might just want to survive.
Enter Caspian University where school work is the least of your worries and you
better hope you're not the collateral damage in someone else's drama.
In their first semester at CU, follow Beth and
Judith, the made-in-hell roomie combo, as they navigate boys, school, v-cards
and crazy - sometimes evil - friends. One semester: oh-so-much fun. And the
best part is: it's only just begun.
About Etta
King:
Etta King is the author of the Caspian
University novels, a series chronicling the life and times of a group of
wealthy teens who inevitably discover the various flavors of college drama.
Etta writes from her personal experiences as a college co-ed and as the product
of an all-girls prep school. Here she witnessed the very eccentricities and
foibles which she depicts in her novels.
In a home filled with books, it was no surprise
that Etta grew to be an avid reader, and that translated into writing when she
was thirteen. She wrote simply for the fun of it, whatever would come to mind,
from fantasy to thriller to romance, and shared her stories with her friends.
In 2010, at twenty-one and just as she was about
to graduate from college, Etta began writing "The Life and Times of
Elizabeth and the Duchess." This was a story which had first taken shape
in 2008, after her freshman year, but had been put on hold. With graduation looming,
Etta recalled the characters, and the events which had inspired them, and took
pen to paper. Literally, as Etta enjoys writing out her stories before typing
them out. Soon the first book had been completed and the series was born.
"The Life and Times of the Heir and the
Keeper," comes as the sequel to "Elizabeth and the Duchess," and
serves as the second semester of these teens' college saga. Etta is currently
working on the third book, in what will be an eight-part series.
Etta King lives with her family in Westchester,
New York.

I hope everyone enjoyed the taste of Etta and her books...please leave her a comment or question as I'm sure she'll come by to give responses:)
Etta, your series sounds interested for sure, like an intriguing adventure. Are there dangers? Is there mystery, suspense?
Please share the genres or tags you feel best describes these novels;)
Thanks so much for stopping in everyone:)
Thank you so much for having me! I would say this falls in line with a lot of school based, teen fiction. There will be danger, now that you mention it! After all, what's college like without a little danger? This was especially fun to write and I'm hoping people will enjoy it! - Etta :)
