The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer

The Grand Sophy The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Regency romance where the heroine is imperturbable and witty and the hero is regularly reduced to spluttering indignation at all her machinations. I was vaguely amused, then very amused, then I cackled a lot through the last third. Great dialogue, emotional tension that's never overplayed, hilarious villains. Clearly the people who recommended this to a non-romance reader knew of what they spoke.
