After discovering Georgette Heyer earlier in the year, I picked up another in Hellesdon library. I’m becoming addicted!
In this book we have a feisty heroine in a marriage of convenience to the enigmatic Earl of Rule; Lord Lethbridge, the villain of the piece; a racy widow and a supporting cast of bumbling drunkards. Cue much hilarity, dastardly plotting, and a smattering of swooning… not least when our heroine sets about the devilish Lord Lethbridge with a poker. Hurrah!
