The spiciest, laugh-out-loud ghostly romantasy debut!
He’s handsome, funny, and a real Romantic. Unfortunately, he’s dead.
When intrepid student journalist Emma Reeves goes undercover to investigate the DEAD POETS SORORITY, she expects to find a group of bored college girls with Ouija boards. What she doesn’t expect is to conjure her very own 19th century dead poet.
Tasked with infiltrating a sorority obsessed with long-dead poets like Byron and Shelley, Emma stumbles upon a bizarre scene: a house filled with crystals, pentagrams, and girls devoted to bringing their literary idols back from the dead. Emma manages to suppress her eye rolls until one night, fuelled by curiosity and a couple of beers, she accidentally summons the spirit of never-quite-famous poet, Nathaniel Harker.
Now, Emma’s got a brooding, enigmatic, love-struck 19th-century poet following her around. Torn between the allure of a (timeless) romance and writing the article of a lifetime, she finds herself at a crossroads.
As Emma grapples with her story and her heart, she’ll have to decide if she can truly keep her poet a secret or if exposing the sorority will mean losing him forever…
