Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

IF YOU LOVE BRIDGERTON, YOU'LL LOVE GEORGETTE HEYER!

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

'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

'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

'Georgette Heyer is unbeatable.' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

My favourite Georgette Heyer novel. Great characters, plenty of humour and an excellent heroine. Couldn’t fault the narration by Louise Jameson.

Grand Story

Always an amusing read is a Georgette Heyer novel. Often the Audible reader struggles with male and female readers but this time I think the reader was too old for the younger parts. Sophie sounded middle aged.

A grand read

Love the story & the narrator, not at the first thought, but Louise’s performance convinced me and at the end I really enjoyed her narration

Very enjoyable
