Book 18: The Convenient Marriage

"The Convenient Marriage" is the first book by Georgette Heyer I ever read and I think it is still my favorite. The stammering heroine, Horry, offers herself to the man who offered himself to her sister to free her to be with the man she swore she was in love with.

This is not a regency era, but a Georgian romance novel, so some of the things took a bit getting used to (I believe the men often used wigs in this book). I love the regency era, but I found this one to be quite entertaining.

The end was kind of expected, but the journal made the book a recommended read.
