Henrietta

'Loved it... a racing plot and an irresistible heroine' Joanne Harris Henrietta has secretly loved Arthur, Lord Allerton, since childhood. He is the only man who is interested in her rather than her fortune – just not in the way that she wants. After three years away at war, Arthur has returned to London to find everything changed. His finances are ruined, his family in chaos. And sweet, shy Hetty is … different. For Hetty has set herself a challenge: she has one summer to become the charming, dashing Diamond she’s always wished to be. And either Arthur will notice her, or she’ll give up her dreams entirely. But in a glittering Season plagued by scandal and intrigue, is there still room for love …? 'It's heaven . . . Irwin gets everything right, including the sharp intelligence, the vocab, the period detail, the verbal sparring, the charm and the wit. And, obviously, THE ROMANCE.' India Knight 'I absolutely devoured this … All the magic of an original Georgette Heyer with added Sophie Irwin wit and charm' Jessica Bull ' Henrietta is an absolute balm for the soul ' Sarra Manning 'It has brought me so much happiness' Cressida McLaughlin 'Loved it... Henrietta is a cracking character... Great fun!'
