Arabella, daughter of a country vicar, goes to London to stay with her Godmother for a season. On the way she encounters the Nonpareil Beaumaris, and taking offence at his behaviour she pretends to be fabulously rich. This might be my very favourite of Heyer's regency novels, funny, charming and taking you straight into the period.

I don't get anything from this except for the pleasure of watching my books travel and knowing that they are giving pleasure to others.
Keep the book for as long as you like, and when you are done with it please pass it on to a friend, or set it out "in the wild" for someone else to find as you did. When you pass this book along, please make a release note to let others know where you left it. Thank you.

This is the first time I have encountered this idea and I think it's wonderful. I found this book waiting for me on a tree stump on a family walk in beautiful Ashridge in Hertfordshire UK. I haven't read it yet but will pass on when done. Thank you Greenbadger.
