If you love Bridgerton, you'll love Georgette Heyer! 'The greatest writer who ever lived' Antonia Fraser 'One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's' Joanne Harris ' Absolutely delicious tales of Regency heroes. . . Utter, immersive escapism' Sophie Kinsella The charming Sophia Stanton-Lacy is a force to be reckoned with. When Sophy is sent to stay with her London relatives, she finds her cousins in quite the tangle. Cecilia is besotted with an attractive but feather-brained poet, Hubert has fallen foul of a money-lender, and the ruthlessly handsome Charles is engaged to a pedantic bluestocking who seems to bring out the worst in him... Fortunately, Sophy has arrived just in time to sort them all out - but Charles is eager to rid his family of her meddlesome ways. Has the Grand Sophy finally met her match? 'A rollicking good read that will be of particular joy to Bridgerton viewers ... the permanent glister of scandal [...] ties the whole thing together' Independent 'Georgette Heyer's Regency romances brim with elegance, wit and historical accuracy, and this is one of her finest and most entertaining ... Escapism of the highest order' Daily Mail 'Rapturously romantic' Katie Fforde 'If you haven't read Georgette Heyer yet, what a treat you have in store!' Harriet Evans 'Georgette Heyer is unbeatable.' Sunday Telegraph Readers love The Grand Sophy . . . 'The smile never left my face!' 'Sophy had me laughing or smiling through most of the book. She is someone I would love to know in my real life.' ' This one is definitely in my top favourites! ' ' Loved every word! ' 'This one is definitely in my top favourites! It was funny, witty, engaging and just awesome!!! ' 'Georgette Heyer's books will live on long after the Harlequin historicals fade from our memories, simply because she is superlative at what she does: making you believe in romance. '
