It's not the very best of Heyer but quite amusing. Caroline Hunt did a great job performing the heroine's coarse voice and little stammer. The other characters are very fine spoken as well.

Excellent reader

I loved everything about this story and it’s almost become my favourite second only to Sprig Muslim! All the characters were played to perfection by Caroline Hunt and her delightful stuttering by Horatia was just right. This story has all the ingredients of a Heyer plot and romance. I read it in my teens many years ago but it is definitely made more enjoyable by listening to the narrator. I can thoroughly recommend it for a funny, romantic and ‘take you out of yourself’ story !

A brilliant romp!

One of my favourite stories, and I’ve read all of her romances (many times)! This one has a particularly witty script and involves an unusually strong heroine and a fabulously macho hero. The narrator portrays all of the characters well and also manages to capture the fun in the conversations.

Witty and romantic

Not the best plot and somewhat over worked but a 5 star romp which kept making me gighle thanks to the anrics of Pelham, Pom set against the languid Rule who habdles the nursery antics with aplomb. Great for a very wet Friday otherwise spent concentrating on something rather dry.

Loved this

Georgette Heyer brings us another regency romance with her wonderful style she shows that she is a cut above the normal Mills and boon writer. .

Another great read

I couldn't stand the narrator for this novel. The way she interpreted the main character's stammer was so galling I had to stop listening. Such a shame because I love Georgette Heyer. I don't know if I'll ever be able to read this one now.

Terrible narration

It was one of the best Georgette Hayer I’ve ever listen to. That and the Corinthian and The Reluctant Widow

AMAZING

This one is slightly different to other books as brothers, nephews and friends play a star role rather than the star crossed lovers.

Heyer is always a lovely easy read

This book was beautifully read by .caroline Hunt. The characters came alive as did the period in which the book was set. I laughed out loud in places and felt somewhat bereft when the book finished.

Ideal listening!

The lifestyle of the Regency period and characters brought out in this story were so amazing that it drew me along.
The humorous escapades that were concocted in order to solve the scrapes Honoria found herself in and her most understanding and forgiving husband Marcus.
Excellent narration throughout ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely wonderful in every way
