Produktbeschreibung

In the thrilling second installment of the Heir series, Up In the Heir, The Monarch faces a crisis that threatens the stability of the kingdom. A secret royal pregnancy ignites a storm of political intrigue, testing family loyalty and the strength of the throne. As alliances are strained and enemies emerge, The Monarch must navigate treacherous waters to protect the future of the monarchy. With the crown's legitimacy at stake, every decision could change the course of history in this gripping tale of power, sacrifice, and resilience. Personal History Avé's story begins in a culturally rich and diverse background, born as the middle child of three. With African American and Native American heritage, Avé grew up in a Christian household predominantly second-generation Jamaican-American. This melting pot of cultures and traditions played a significant role in shaping Avé's identity and values. Avé's journey of self-discovery and acceptance was fraught with difficulties, including severe bullying in middle school and physical attacks in high school. Outed as gay to their family in 2011, Avé grew distant from their immediate family. This period of isolation and resilience culminated in Avé's proud declaration of their nonbinary identity in 2018, which garnered support from other family members. Academic and Professional Achievements Avé's academic pursuits reflect a blend of creativity and business acumen. They attended Temple University, graduating with a BA in Theater and a Certificate in Entrepreneurial and Innovation Management. Their studies spanned dance, voice (singing), acting, portraiture, and costume design, laying a strong foundation for a multifaceted career in the arts. Following a serious car accident that led to significant weight gain and subsequent body image issues, Avé embarked on a journey of fitness and health. This personal victory underscores Avé's resilience and determination to overcome life's challenges. Furthering their education, Avé attended Hult International Business School in London, earning a Master's in International Business with a focus on marketing. Their academic journey continues at Drexel University, where they are pursuing an Executive Doctorate in Business Administration, expected in 2026. Musical and Artistic Endeavors Avé's passion for music and performance began at a young age, singing in church at six and performing with the Philadelphia Boys Choir from 2005 to 2011. Their talent took them on tours to Panama, Costa Rica, Turkey, Greece, Spain, Germany, and China, enriching their cultural experiences and honing their craft. Adopting the stage name 'Matt Edwards' early in their solo career, Avé released their first independent album, 'The Real ME,' in 2012 and founded Stork Street Entertainment, LLC. Their second album, 'SpelChek,' released in 2015, saw a halt in promotion as Avé prioritized caring for their grandmother with a chronic illness. They also published their first play, 'Every Knee Shall Bow,' for the Nayar Kappur Play Festival at Temple University. In a significant rebranding to embrace their nonbinary identity, Avé changed their stage name to 'Avé' and signed with The Giving Groove. This new chapter in their career saw the release of music and videos in 2020, including 'Your Heart Belongs to Somebody Else,' 'Dance,' 'Dive In My Ocean,' and 'How Come.' Their 2022 release, 'Mind Your Business,' and the EP 'The Enlightenment' further solidified Avé's presence in the music industry. Literary Contributions Avé's creative talents extend beyond music and performance into literature. They have published the 'Heir' series, with 'Heir Apparently' released in January 2021 and 'Up in the Heir' scheduled for publication in 2024. This venture into writing showcases Avé's versatility and commitment to storytelling across different mediums. Vision for the Future Avé's vision for their career is deeply rooted in authenticity and empowerment. They aspire to be known as an artist true to themselves, inspiring others to embrace their identities with or without external support. Through music, dance, and fashion, Avé aims to convey self-love, particularly within the LGBT community. Looking ahead, Avé envisions a future as a touring performer, with aspirations to expand into film and literature.
