It's Poe-etic! Twenty-four year old voyeur, Jaime Will, lives on love, poetry, and watching every move Emma Hoccleve makes. His day job? Writing the king's policy, but Jaime also dares write poetry devoted to Emma, murderous King Wulfric's fiance. As Poe Immortalized Annabelle Lee, Jaime is equally as obsessed with Emma, who dumps King Wulf and then wages war against him.
Jaime's got a problem. Emma's former lover, King Wulfric, is one mean bastard. She's also seeing Thorne Godwin. For the introverted poet, chances are slim, but after a bloody battle in Dwarf Iris Bog, Jaime's chances improve when the fiery dwarf leader, Lady "Liv" Fitzpeter, gives him a philactery containing magick dwarf iris leaves, which allows Jaime to take on the physique of Lord Leadly, a handsome but highly reactive knight.
Joining in her war to retake Castle Terraces from Wulfric and restore Evesham, Jaime writes poetry and seduces Emma as could only a man with Poe's genius and Lord Leadly's handsome face. Yet his greatest challenge in winning Emma is finding a way to tell her of the secret he's hidden from her.
