Story
Annis Wychwood delights in her independence. Beautiful, rich and far too busy for love, she has turned down the advances of many a hopeful suitor. But when she becomes entangled in the affairs of a runaway heiress, she encounters the girl's guardian, the notorious Oliver Carleton. While Oliver may be a reckless and uncivil rogue, Annis can't help but be drawn towards his wild ways.

Horry Winwood doesn't play by the rules. So when her family are near ruin and her sister is about to enter a loveless marriage to a wealthy man to settle the family debts, young and headstrong Horry proposes to marry him instead. As her new husband's attentions fall elsewhere, Horry feels increasingly unhappy. Then she meets the attractive and dangerous Lord Lethbridge, and her days suddenly become more exciting. But there is bad blood between Horry's husband and Lord Lethbridge, and as complications and deceptions mount, the social tangle grows ever trickier to unpick.

Great narrator and story
Georgette Heyer is one of my favourite authors. I've read many of her books but not this one, and decided to listen to it. I'm so glad I did!! The narrator is fantastic! Each voice was distinguishable and you could just hear their personality.
As for the story, it's got to be one of her best. I just love it. She wrote many mysteries as well as regency romance, and you can tell she loved the little bits that she threw in there. I was sad for the one character, but the romance and other parts of this book made me finish it with a huge grin on my face.
Definitely recommended if you like humorous reads, a fantastic narrator, and a great Regency romance.
