Description
Georgette Heyer is unbeatable. Sunday Telegraph. A beautifully repackaged edition of one of the best of the best.
If you love Bridgerton, you'll love Georgette Heyer!
The greatest writer who ever lived Antonia Fraser
One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's Joanne Harris
Absolutely delicious tales of Regency heroes... Utter, immersive escapism Sophie Kinsella
The charming Sophia Stanton-Lacy is a force to be reckoned with.
When Sophy is sent to stay with her London relatives, she finds her cousins in quite the tangle. Cecilia is besotted with an attractive but feather-brained poet, Hubert has fallen foul of a money-lender, and the ruthlessly handsome Charles is engaged to a pedantic bluestocking who seems to bring out the worst in him...
Fortunately, Sophy has arrived just in time to sort them all out - but Charles is eager to rid his family of her meddlesome ways. Has the Grand Sophy finally met her match?
A rollicking good read that will be of particular joy to Bridgerton viewers ... the permanent glister of scandal ... ties the whole thing together Independent
Georgette Heyer's Regency romances brim with elegance, wit and historical accuracy, and this is one of her finest and most entertaining ... Escapism of the highest order Daily Mail
Rapturously romantic Katie Fforde
If you haven't read Georgette Heyer yet, what a treat you have in store! Harriet Evans
