A clever satirist. A guarded lord with a poet's heart. A literary scandal that could ruin them both.
In the glittering world of Regency London, reputations rise and fall on a single whispered verse.
Rosalind Beaumont survives on wit, ink stains, and sheer determination. Her satire readings have made her the unexpected darling of society, but applause will not keep a roof over her mother's head forever. When her former admirer is suspected of stealing her words and passing them off as his own, she vows to expose the truth before he prints a single stolen line.
Lord Julian Croft never sought notoriety. His writing is meant for quiet rooms and trusted friends, not crowded salons hungry for spectacle. Yet when Rosalind's talent is threatened, he steps into the fray. She is brilliant, infuriating, and impossible to ignore, and he will not let her be silenced by a man who trades charm for plagiarism.
To unmask a literary thief, Rosalind and Julian must join forces, crafting a dangerous poetic trap that draws the attention of every gossip sheet in London. Their uneasy alliance soon transforms into something sharper, warmer, and far more treacherous than rivalry. As salons erupt with rumors and a benefit reading becomes the stage for truth, they face a choice that will either secure their future or destroy everything they have built.
Perfect for readers craving witty rivals to lovers tension, slow burn longing, sparkling Regency banter, scandal, secret collaboration, and a love story entwined with poetry and intrigue.
Duel of the Poets delivers:
- Rivals to lovers tension filled with intelligence and desire
- A fiercely resourceful heroine fighting for her voice
- A protective, soft-spoken lord with hidden fire
- Literary betrayal, high society drama, and whispered rumors
- Regency glamour, romantic chemistry, and satisfying emotional payoff
- A full length novel with heart, wit, and swoon worthy moments
Enter a world where ink holds power, stolen verses spark scandal, and two poets must decide whether they will resist temptation or surrender to a love that refuses to stay quiet.
