♥ a love-hate romance♥ a reluctant debutante
♥ an English lord spy
♥ a glorious London Season Austenesque Reviews - ＂I highly recommend this novel and author to readers who love Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer, and traditional Regency romances!＂ ＂You forget yourself, your lordship. You have no rights to allow or disallow anything I may choose to do. You have, in fact, no claim over me whatsoever - a circumstance for which I thank the Lord on a daily basis! I am neither your ward nor your dependent, and I will not allow you to talk to me in that odiously overbearing fashion!＂High-spirited Artemisia Grantley, niece of the Duke of Wentworth, has never made any attempt to conform to the feminine ideal expected of a lady of quality, nor has she ever had the benefit of an unfavourable opinion formed against her. But when the Marquess of Chysm enters her life, it seems to her that his lordship is always at hand to witness her shortcomings and bring them to her attention. As she reluctantly embarks upon her first London Season, a scandalous family secret and a conspiracy that stretches all the way to Napoleonic France threaten to entangle her with the one person she could happily throttle. What readers are saying about ARTEMISIA: ＂Be ready to laugh.＂
＂Still reeling from the beautiful prose and breathtaking romance.＂
＂Delightful, funny and filled with clever conversation. Two thumbs up!＂
＂The story line was absorbing full of intrigue, twists and turns enhanced by gems of comic wit.＂
＂If you want more Heyer romantic comedy (like I do, but have never truly found it), THIS IS IT!＂
＂Wonderful Regency romp, primarily in the style of Georgette Heyer with some Austenesque elements.＂
＂So few Regency novels are this well-written, with such strong characters, a good plot and sexy, but clean relationships.＂ Author’s Comments:
- The novels in the Regency Goddesses series are standalone and can be enjoyed in any order (although, there is one minor character who makes an appearance in all three novels - have you discovered them yet?).
- For those of you who are wondering what to expect in terms of heat, the content is sexually charged but perfectly clean.
- As I like to stay in period as much as possible, all spelling follows British English conventions.
