An Earl finds himself in a battle of wits with an anonymous Scotsman—and battling his own passion for a mysterious beauty—in this "deftly crafted Regency" (Booklist).
David Lansdale, Earl of Treybourne, was not going to lose a public argument with a petty, scribbling journalist. So he headed for Edinburgh, disguising himself as plain Mr. Archer, eager to discover the anonymous writer and expose him for the fraud he undoubtably was. A flawless plan, until David found himself distracted by the beautiful Miss Anna Fairchild.
A bluestocking long on the shelf, Anna had no desire for a husband. But she felt a strange kinship with the dashing—and enigmatic—gentleman from London. With secrets to hide herself, Anna was playing a dangerous game that could threaten their tenuous bond. Caught between deception and desire, it will take all their wit to see love flourish.

      Tired of the trouncing he has recently been receiving in the " Scottish Monthly" " Gazette," David Lansdale, the Earl of Treybourne and essayist for London's " Whiteleaf's Review," has come to Edinburgh to meet with his rival political essayist, A. J. Goodfellow, to see if the two of them can work out some kind of truce. Using the name "David Archer," Lansdale arrives at the magazine's offices hoping he can find out exactly who the mysterious Goodfellow is, but the first person he crosses paths with is Anna Fairchild. Realizing that if he discovers her secret--she is really the one writing Goodfellow's essays--it will ruin everything for which she has worked so hard, Anna does her best to throw the charming Mr. Archer off track. Two beautifully matched protagonists engage in a wonderfully amusing literary and romantic battle of the wits in Brisbin's latest deftly crafted Regency novel, the perfect mix of history and romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
