Georgette Heyer, spécialiste de la période de la régence anglaise (1811-1820), est l'une des romancières les plus adulées de son temps. À l'âge de quinze ans, elle se met à écrire pour distraire son frère convalescent, et donne ses lettres de noblesse à la romance historique, s'inspirant largement des oeuvres de Jane Austen. Son incomparable talent pour les intrigues amoureuses a fait de Georgette Heyer une plume incontournable du genre.

_______________
Endowed with rank, wealth and elegance, Sylvester, Duke of Salford, is ready to find a bride.
His pursuit of a partner sets him on course to Phoebe Marlow, a young lady who is far more concerned with riding than sewing or beautiful clothes.
With Phoebe struggling to meet her family's demands of gentility and poise, a potential match with Sylvester is exceedingly advantageous. So, it is very intriguing indeed when a visit from her potential suitor causes Phoebe to flee her home.
When the pair meet again and an unexpected adventure ensues, Sylvester comes to realise that there is much more to Phoebe than her reputation affords . . .
