Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

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.

Critic reviews

"Rapturously romantic." (Katie Fforde)

"Georgette Heyer is second to none." (Sunday Times)

Horrible narration..

Narrator completely ruined a serviceable book. I look to Heyer for a relaxing, amusing romp. This stilted and monotone narration ruins the book.

Georgette Heyer at her best

Delightful and great fun with an excellent narrator. Lots of period detail too. Highly recommended.

Wonderful!

Georgette Heyer has long been a favorite of mine. I've been reading and rereading her books for over 40 years. I'm so pleased to find her on Audible. Her work is light and witty. I thought the narrator did a fine job. Can't wait to listen to more Heyer work!
