Özet
 1817. As a young woman, clever, self-reliant Lydia Templeton scandalised society by rejecting Lewis Durrant, the county's most eligible batchelor.

Ten years later, Lydia has no regrets and, having concluded that matters of the heart need no longer trouble her, she is quite happy to remain unwed. But others still seek Lydia's advice on their love lives.

This is a very high-class Regency romance! Lydia Templeton is a woman of education, and of an age to have a certain amount of freedom. Nonetheless she feels constrained by what women may and may not do, and envious of the men around who who have so much more opportunity. This theme, which runs throughout the novel, is counter-balanced by the dilemma of the sweet but easily-influenced Phoebe, in love with two men - Mr A and Mr B, as Lydia thinks of them.

Morgan plays with all the conventions of the Regency novel with immense wit and enjoyment, and the end result is as satisfying to the reader as it no doubt was to write. Morgan also writes very successful fictionalised biographies which display both his knowledge of period detail and his flair with words, but I like his writing best when he's playing.

Phyllida Nash is one of those readers who could make a phone directory sound compelling.

Excellent story, beautifully read

A few overly long conversations unrelated to plot made this novel somewhat slow in parts.

Ok

A plot recognisable as a mixture of a well known Austen and another of Georgette Heyer’s, with some laugh out loud moments, however it dragged a little about mid-way through, and I didn’t feel completely convinced of the emotions of the characters at times. Wonderful performance as usual from the great Phyllida Nash.

Modern regency romance well constructed

I was unfamiliar with this writer but will now seek him out. This was a delightful story brilliantly read Phyleda Nash could read a dictionary and bring it to life. A rare talent. Highly recommended

Wonderful narration

I enjoyed this book. It?s a little stodgy in places but overall an entertaining listen. Lots of nods in J.A.?s direction and occasionally laugh out loud funny; although the humour is very sly. The reader is excellent. You can?t really go wrong.

One for Jane Austen fans.
