À propos de ce contenu audio
“The perfect blend of rich Regency romance and frothy screwball, Alexander has brewed a queer and cozy cup of something sure to delight.”
—L.C. Rosen, author of Lavender House
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman who has lost her fortune must be in need (not want) of a husband. Beautiful, cunning Verbena Montrose must marry to save herself and her odious family from abject poverty. Fortunately, what she lacks in a dowry, she makes up for in the currency of gossip.
When she hears an alarming rumor about her very dear, very queer friend Étienne that could ruin him, she comes to his aid with a proposal—for a marriage of convenience, that is. But when Verbena discovers that a mysterious and celebrated poet by the name of Flora Witcombe has been publishing verses that hint she is onto their scheme, Verbena has no choice but to pretend to be a poet herself to confront her in a local salon. And—unexpectedly—be charmed by her.
Flora, in turn, is terrified by and smitten with Verbena in equal measure. But she holds a secret of her own: he is also William Forsyth, a struggling novelist and fifth son of a minor noble family. And if circumstances don’t allow Flora to woo Verbena, perhaps William can. Faced with two suitors and a fiancé, Verbena, who has always had to be clever to survive in society, starts to realize she may need to think outside of society’s constraints to find true happiness.

MOST ANTICIPATED: PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, AUTOSTRADDLE
LIBRARY JOURNAL’S ROMANCE PICK OF MARCH
“A Lady for All Seasons is the queer, trans Regency romance I desperately needed. Elegant prose meets messy Shakespearean romantic entanglements, threaded with hilarious witticisms, resulting in a book that few will be able to read in more than one sitting. Alexander—just like their characters—truly has the soul of a lover and the heart of a poet.”
—Lindz McLeod, author of The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet
“Intoxicatingly delicious—Alexander’s wonderful characters feel so real.”
—Megan Frampton, author of The Scot’s Seduction
“TJ Alexander truly doesn’t miss. As clever as it is heartwarming, A Lady for All Seasons is a Twelfth Night-style Regency romance that asks what happinesses might exist if we just allow ourselves to dream beyond society’s confines.”
—Tara Tai, author of Single Player
“Deliciously juicy, A Lady for All Seasons is a fabulously raucous romp through scandal, schemes, identity, and love. A feast for any romance reader.”
—Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn't Care
“TJ Alexander’s . . . first historical, A Gentleman’s Gentleman, was delightful and I can’t wait to get my hands on this new one.”
—Cat Sebastian, The Nerd Daily
“A series of comedic errors [that] ends with two perfectly matched souls finally coming together.”
—Swoon, “13 Best Romance Books of March 2026"
“A comedy of errors, witty and stuffed with all the hijinks one would expect from a book in which Lord Byron makes numerous cameos. . . . Alexander makes the most of . . . madcap plot development while always writing their characters with respect and tenderness. The story is deeply grounded in its historical setting, but never at the expense of the queer joy that radiates throughout. Genderfluid historical romance at its finest, and funniest.”
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Features a gender-fluid lead paired with a quick-witted woman whose machinations outsmart the ton to find happiness. . . . Highly recommended for historical romance fans who enjoy a mix of humor, cunning, and tenderness.”
—Eve Stano, Library Journal (starred review)
“Witty and bighearted. . . [Alexander’s] clever conceit queers the long-standing historical romance plot device of cross-dressing. . . . A unique, humorous, and hopeful slow burn that’s sure to please.”
—Publishers Weekly
