This was my first Georgette Heyer book and it was utterly delightful!
It was a bit slow at first, and I was like “is there romance in this romance book or are they just gonna vibe with Sherry’s friends the whole time?” I still enjoyed the moments where they just vibed, but it wasn’t what I was looking for exactly.
Fortunately, it picked up later in the book and I fell so in love with every character. George Wrotham was maybe my favorite.
I’m excited to read more from Heyer! This was excellent!
