Publisher Description
There is a rule amongst his kind: A jester doesn't lie.
In the Kingdom of Spring, Poet is renowned. He's young and pretty, a lover of men and women. He performs for the court, kisses like a scoundrel, and mocks with a silver tongue.
Yet allow him this: It's only the most cunning, most manipulative soul who can play the fool.
For Poet guards a secret.
One the Crown would shackle him for. One that he'll risk everything to protect.
Alas, it will take more than clever words to deceive Princess Briar.
Convinced that he's juggling lies as well as verse, this righteous nuisance of a girl is determined to expose him.
But not all falsehoods are fiendish. Poet's secret is delicate, binding the jester to the princess in an unlikely alliance—and kindling a breathless attraction, as alluring as it is forbidden.
Contains mature themes.

About the Narrators
Lauren Sweet loves falling in love. The fact that she gets to do it every day is the best part of her job. She has narrated more than one hundred audiobooks, at least half of which are by USA Today or New York Times bestselling authors. Her greatest passions are reading and acting, so narrating audiobooks is a dream come true.
Cornell Collins was a hippie, a mod, a punk, a new-romantic, and a new-waver. Now, he proudly calls himself “newly middle aged.” Narrating audiobooks has shown Cornell that life in the modern world can, in some ways, be just as good as the golden 70s and 80s, and he has found a peace in telling stories. His life partner and daughter are very patient and much cleverer than he is.
