Synopsis

Despite the scandalous blemish on the family name of his lovely young bride, Lord Giles Cardross is convinced she cares for him. But as the bills and extravagant debts begin to mount up, Giles begins to suspect that perhaps his adored wife isn't as innocent as he supposed. Especially since, as of late, she's been unable to look him in the eye….

Nell has found herself ensnared in a bit of a pinch. Deciding that she can't possibly ask her husband for help, she enlists the help of her roguish brother, Dysart—who is every inch the provocateur he's renowned to be! But Nell certainly doesn't expect to get caught up in his outlandish schemes. It's only a matter of time before Nell's reputation—and her marriage—is on a course for disaster!

Biographie de l'auteur

Author of over fifty books, Georgette Heyer is the best-known and best-loved of all historical novelists, who made the Regency period her own. Her first novel, The Black Moth, published in 1921, was written at the age of fifteen to amuse her convalescent brother; her last was My Lord John. Although most famous for her historical novels, she also wrote eleven detective stories. Georgette Heyer died in 1974 at the age of seventy-one.

Georgette Heyer was to many minds the finest historical and romantic novelist of her age, and April Lady shows how she has won a new audience with her dashing heroes and sparkly heroines.

Présentation de l'éditeur

`Had I not been possessed of a large fortune, you wouldn`t have married me, would you, Nell?' The new Lady Cardross so filled her days with fashion and frivolity that the Earl began to wonder whether she had indeed only married him for his money. And now Nell dared not tell him the truth . . . What with the concern over his wife`s heart and pocket, sorting out her brother`s scrapes, and trying to prevent his own half-sister from eloping, it was no wonder that the much-tried Earl almost missed an opportunity to smooth the path of true love in his own marriage . . .
