Worth listening to multiple times

This is one of my favorite Heyer books, and the reader does not disappoint. Subtle, but delightful!

Excellent narrator, enjoyable story

Excellent narrator adds greatly to this gently humorous story. Despite a slow beginning, by the middle it's enjoyable to hope the appallingly selfish beauty with her temper tantrums will get her comeuppance!

Awesome

She is perfection! It is as though you are actually there seeing and hearing the action! Only gripe…her books never last long enough!

Good enough to read or listen BUT

Love the story and characters, but I want the reaction of the neighborhood characters of what happened in the end.

Excellent fun!

Loved GH’s main characters in this fun, lighthearted Regency Romance. I think if you like Pride and Prejudice, you will like this one, too.
