This is a complete joy of a book. Every page sparkles with Georgette Heyer’s wit, warmth and tenderness, and Sophie’s brilliant voice shines too, making for an irresistible love story . . . It has brought me so much happiness, and I know it’s a book I’ll reread often.

I absolutely devoured this … All the magic of an original Georgette Heyer with added Sophie Irwin wit and charm.

Jessica Bull

An extraordinary achievement. I adored every character, every turn of phrase. I laughed out loud and the ending had me beaming with joy. A triumph!

Beth O'Leary

Oh how I adored it. A wonderful, warm, witty Regency romance. Sophie has done an amazing job of bringing Hetty to life and giving her her happy ending. An absorbing, finely paced and plotted read. Better than a masked ball. Loved it.

Cesca Major

I can think of no one better qualified than (the Grand?!) Sophie Irwin to take on the mantle of this treasured legacy. Henrietta is as sharp and witty as Venetia or Frederica or any of Georgette Heyer's beloved romances, with all their delightful hallmarks. Capital!

Beth Morrey

I completely adored this novel – Sophie is such a funny, clever writer and she tells this story with real style and sincerity. I know it will delight Heyer devotees and new readers alike.
