About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

In all her 25 years, Venetia Lanyon has never been further than Harrogate.

Nor has she enjoyed the attentions of any man aside from her two wearisomely persistent suitors.

Then, in one extraordinary encounter, she meets a neighbour she knew only by reputation - the infamous Jasper Damerel.

Before she realises it, Venetia is encouraging a man whose way of life has scandalised the North Riding for years.

Critic Reviews

"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)

"Rapturously romantic." (Katie Fforde)

a story which will make one fall in love with the characters and their determination to do their best for each other's benefits but creating more hurdles in a silly way.

An average story. But lovely characterisation and some lovely witty dialogues and funny but the plot was meh!

Great Characterisation

I adore this novel. God only knows how many times I’ve read it. It was a joy listening to this rendition.
Everybody’s characters became even clearer. Mrs Scorrier my God. Such a horrible greedy woman.
I appreciated how Venetia was almost a mother to Aubrey. Lord Dameral .. swoon worthy still
Lady Denny not so likeable this time. So meddlesome. Mrs Hendred. I liked her. I did wonder how GH forgot to mention any of Mrs Hendred’s daughters. She had many yet they don’t appear in even one scene. That was a slip up I guess. I noticed it as an author myself.

It is still as charming and engaging as it was 35 years ago!!
