What an absolute banger. This is one of the books I haven't read from Heyer and the start was a bit tepid for my tastes because there were some intentionally unlikeable characters right off the bat. Within a few chapters though I was practically kicking my feet and giggling at everything.
I absolutely think that this is a great example of a fake engagement.
