Summary

Sir Clement Carnell was the most domineering and strait-laced of fathers, and his death has left his grown children, Louisa and Valentine, with a sense of release. While Valentine throws open the Devonshire estate of Pennacombe to their fashionable cousins from London, Louisa feels free at last to reject the man her father chose as her prospective husband - Pearce Lynley.

Soon the temptations of Regency London beckon - including Lady Harriet Eversholt, beautiful, scandalous, and very married, with whom Valentine becomes dangerously involved; while Louisa finds that freedom of choice is as daunting as it is exciting. Will the opportunity to indulge, at last, in a little folly lead to fulfilment - or disaster?

Simply the best regency novelist around. A scrumptious indulgence. I have read everything that this author has written, regency or otherwise and heartily recommend them all. Phyllida Nash is an ideal narrator, seeming to inhabit not only the characters, but the historical milieu in which they enact the story. Thank you.

A slow start, but stick with it. Jane Austen meets Georgette Heyer with style and wit. Excellently read too.

Regency Romance

My first Jude Morgan listen and I could do with some more. A nice easy going and well written novel. Very good narration too.

This charming and well written story was a delight. Whilst the author has his own 'voice' comparisons to Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen are well deserved, unlike many who aspire to the ideal. Morgan has a light, sure touch with well constructed characters and an eye for detail. The narration was good. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Good Regency

If you have enjoyed Georgette Heyer regency novels those by Jude Morgan are even better. More complex, intelligently written and impeccably read by Phylleda Nash.

Great story matched with a wonderful narration
