Desperate for drama that might resolve his writer's block and save his career, he jumps at the opportunity when a mysterious letter, asking for his help, invites him to a country estate of a duke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe's prepared for a prank or a damsel in distress. He's certainly not prepared for said damsel to be protected by the most fearsome guard of all: her feisty bluestocking of a best friend, Lady Louisa Ascombe. She's mouthy. She's clever. She insinuates herself into every situation, preventing Sebastian from resolving his mystery.

Determined to prove her worth as more than a duke's daughter, she's focused on entering her play into a competition that could propel her among the stars and save her from a tedious season on the marriage market. The last distraction she needs is a vexing viscount, too handsome for his own good, sniffing out secrets around her estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLittle does she know Sebastian is a fellow playwright she admires, and that he's aiming to win the same competition. For Louisa and Sebastian, fighting with ink is easy-but they'll also have to fight the scorching attraction hidden beneath their snide remarks. Because only one thing is riskier than confessing their secret identities to the world: admitting that perhaps they don't hate each other at all ...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo Steal a Secret\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e is a closed-door Regency Romance and a companion novel to \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Girl Out of Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e, although it can be read and enjoyed as a standalone with no knowledge of the main novel needed.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Serzenta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9619674685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789619674680\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Serzenta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.66d","brand":"Kate Serzenta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48853050196223,"sku":"9789619674680","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/to-steal-a-secret-kate-serzenta-9789619674680","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
