the convenient marriage by georgette heyer

Kristi Herbrand 'Books and Needlepoint' () If you are a fan of Jane Austen type romances - and haven't yet tried Georgette Heyer - pick this one up soon. This is one of those books that you read and think to yourself 'Now why aren't men really like that?' Of course there is no shortage of Heyer's wit and charm. His book is the epitome of a comically charming period romance. I was immediately taken with the premise of this story, and I liked the way that Heyer jumped right into the action. Rebecca Laney 'Becky's Book Reviews' () The atmosphere of The 'Convenient Marriage'-much like Heyer's other novels-is so rich, so detailed, so luxuriously drawn. The story is funny and the characters are easy to love.

She takes us straight back to Regency England and I can feel it in the prose as well as in the historical details. I thought the storyline in this novel was extremely creative. Keira Gillet 'Love Romance Passion' ()Ī CONVENIENT MARRIAGE was just a wonderful book. Vic Sandborn 'Jane Austen's World' ()Ī 'Convenient Marriage' is an amusing romp through Regency England and sure to win your heart. I would read this book over 90% of the romances being published today. Overcoming some misguided help from Horatia's harebrained brother and a hired highwayman, the Earl routs his old enemy, and wins over his young wife-proving theirs was no accidental marriage and gifting her with a love that she never thought she could expect. There's simply no way he's going to let her get into trouble.

Unbeknownst to Horatia, the Earl is enchanted by her. The Earl of Rule has found just the wife he wants. And then the Earl's archenemy, Sir Robert, sets out to ruin her reputation. Everyone knows she's no beauty, but she'll do her best to keep out of the Earl's way and make him a good wife. Her sister is already in love with someone else, and Horatia is willing to sacrifice herself and tell a few convenient lies for her family's happiness. When the Earl of Rule proposes marriage to her sister Lizzie, Horatia offers herself instead. Horatia Winwood is simply helping her family.
