A good historical romance that started out strong and kept on going. At first I didn't care for hero but all the exciting action just highlighted his transformation. I enjoyed the secondary romance and all the fun characters. Marquis of Vidal making a quick escape to France thinks he is taking his ...
This is the second part of a trilogy dealing with the Alastair family that began with These Old Shades and concludes with An Infamous Army. Some of the author's works can found in general fiction, and I know plenty who usually eschew romance novels who love Heyer--A.S. Byatt is a fan. Her Regency no...
Sequel to These Old Shades, featuring the wild Marquis of Vidal, son of the Duke and Duchess of Avon. Another huge hit for me. While very different than its predecessor, Devil's Cub is further proof of Georgette Heyer's brilliance. She truly is the queen of Regency romance, IMO. I've got whole shelv...
This story is as frothy, rambunctious and classist as the rest of Heyer, but more enjoyable than some. The child of the couple in [b:These Old Shades|311182|These Old Shades (Alistair, #1)|Georgette Heyer|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1173644611s/311182.jpg|2682162] is the "hero" in this one. He pla...
How did I forget to review this??? This is one of my favorite Heyer books (and a high contender for favorite of all time), with multiple rereads under its belt.Devil's Cub is the story of the wild and reckless Vidal, an unromantic figure of romance who has absolutely no sense of restraint whatsoever...
I enjoyed it, especially the return of all the characters from These Old Shades, but it seemed a bit as if Heyer wanted to spend more time with them than with her younger protagonists. A few more scenes of growing sentiment between Mary and Vidal would have sufficed for me (but I liked it nonetheles...
The story of kidnapping the wrong sibling has been making rounds in literary circles since the ancient times. Heyer’s reincarnation of the familiar plot twist is one of the best I've ever read.Dominic, Marquis of Vidal, is a jaded young aristocrat, rich and spoiled. After one too many mad escapades,...
I loved it! The Alastairs came back with a bang. It was nice to see them as a family unit. Leonie and Rupert had a greater role in this book than Justin. However, in the end, The Duke of Avon played the best role/ hoax. Fanny was her ridiculous self and you learn that she has the most ridiculous and...
A solid 5 and even higher.This is what a romance novel should be about; a book you can read over and over; a tale of passion and desire that can stand the test of time.
Even though I enjoyed reading it, I felt a bit lost in some parts.I mean, I think it was supposed to be funny, but I didn't find it funny at all.Especially the part with the Valet and the clothing and habits descriptions.I was also a bit put off by all the Wigs and Powders and Rouge description, it ...
