Friday's Child: A Regency Novel. Illustrated, livre ebook

In Friday’s Child, Georgette Heyer presents one of her most delightful and effervescent Regency romances, sparkling with humor and youthful impulsiveness. Lord Sheringham—known to his friends as Sherry—is handsome, wealthy, and newly come into his inheritance. Determined to assert his independence, he proposes marriage on a whim to his childhood friend, the innocent and warm-hearted Hero Wantage, after being slighted by a more sophisticated beauty.
Hero, gentle and inexperienced, finds herself suddenly transported into the glittering but bewildering world of London society. Surrounded by Sherry’s irresponsible companions and guided by the formidable Lady Sheringham, she must navigate fashion, scandal, and social expectations. Sherry’s careless extravagance and boyish pride lead the couple into a series of comic misadventures, from gambling debts to misunderstandings that test their young marriage.
With lively dialogue, vivid period detail, and affectionate satire of the Regency ton, Heyer crafts a romance that is as tender as it is amusing. Beneath the farcical escapades lies a story of growing maturity, loyalty, and genuine affection. Friday’s Child is a charming tale of love that begins in haste but deepens through patience, forgiveness, and heartfelt devotion.
