Social fireworks explode when Max Ravenscar attemps to bribe Miss Deborah Grantham, a gaming house mistress, into spurning his nephew's marriage proposals. Miss Grantham had no intentions to marry the young Lord Mablethorpe to begin with, but that doesn't stop her from planning her madcap revenge on Ravenscar for his insults.

took a little more time to get moving than did Cotillion, but once it got its momentum, it was a rollicking good time! I'm learning I that if I want an amusing light romance to pass some time this winter, Georgette Heyer will be one of the first that I reach for. I have now read two of her regencies, and I read both with a smile on my face.

Again, it seems like everyone and their mother has read at least one of her books lately! I will get to her eventually I just know it lol.
Ladytink ~ Sourcebooks has been really pushing the reissues of her work. She is fun to read!

I've got a couple of Heyer's books to start and I can't wait.
Dar ~ I have one more here, too. I have one other book I have to review first though. Which ones do you have? I can't wait to see your reviews for her!
Lezlie
lol-I just put them on my Mailbox Monday post-The Cotillion and The Conqueror. Do you have any of those?
Dar ~ Those are the only other two I've read. I'll go comment on your post now! :-)

I think it is great that so many people are discovering or rediscovering Georgette Heyer.
Now if only I could get Sourcebooks to send some my way! :-)
Jeanette ~ Have you contacted them? I contacted them via email earlier this year, and they've been very generous with review copies!
