Venetia: Gossip, scandal and an unforgettable Regency romance

A wonderfully witty and entertaining Regency romance by one of the best-known and most beloved historical novelists of all time.

If you love Bridgerton, you’ll love Georgette Heyer!

‘The greatest writer who ever lived’ Antonia Fraser ‘ My generation’s Julia Quinn’ Adjoa Andoh, star of Bridgerton ‘One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer’s books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen’s’ JOANNE HARRIS __________________________

In all her twenty-five years, Venetia Lanyon has never been further than Harrogate.

Nor has she enjoyed the attentions of any man aside from her two wearisomely persistent suitors.

Then, in one extraordinary encounter, she meets a neighbour she only knew by reputation - the infamous Jasper Damerel.

Before she realises it, Venetia is encouraging a man whose way of life has scandalised the North Riding for years. __________________________
