Black Sheep: A Regency Novel. Illustrated, livre ebook

When Abigail Wendover accompanies her spirited niece Fanny to the fashionable spa town of Bath, she expects little more than a season of polite society and careful supervision. Fanny, however, quickly falls under the spell of a handsome but fortune-hunting suitor whose intentions are far from honorable. Determined to protect her niece from an imprudent match, Abigail seeks an unlikely ally in Miles Calverleigh—a witty, unconventional gentleman widely regarded as the “black sheep” of his distinguished family.
Miles is everything society mistrusts: independent, irreverent, and delightfully indifferent to convention. Yet beneath his sardonic humor lies sharp intelligence and an unexpected sense of loyalty. As Abigail and Miles join forces to outmaneuver the predatory suitor, their spirited exchanges reveal a growing attraction neither had anticipated. The elegant assemblies and promenades of Bath provide the perfect stage for subtle intrigue and sparkling repartee.
In Black Sheep, Georgette Heyer delivers a Regency romance filled with charm and sophistication. Rich in period detail and lively dialogue, the novel blends humor with emotional depth. Through its unconventional hero and sensible heroine, Heyer celebrates maturity, wit, and the quiet courage to defy society’s expectations in the name of love.
