How does a knight show his love to a fairy enchantress? How does a Stuart rake convince a coy lady to give in to passion? How does a woman face a new relationship when an old love hasn’t died?

Read these poems aloud to hear the voices of the romance heroes and heroines of the past!

Inside, you’ll find a selection of 14 ways to say "I love you" (or, sometimes, "I want you"). These poems are penned by some of the finest poets in the English language, hand-picked by a red-hot writer of contemporary romance.
