Description
Set in eighteenth-century England, this spirited historical romance follows Lord Jack Carstares, an exiled nobleman who has taken up life as a highwayman after accepting blame for his younger brother’s disgrace in a card scandal. When news of his father’s death calls him home, Jack becomes entangled with Diana Beauleigh, a beautiful and spirited young woman, and the notorious Duke of Andover, whose seductive charm and ruthless reputation have earned him the name “the Devil.” As secrets, mistaken identities, family loyalties, and romantic intrigue collide, the characters are drawn into a fast-moving adventure of honor, redemption, and forbidden desire. Written with the wit, energy, and flair that would define Georgette Heyer’s later work, this early novel offers a lively and entertaining introduction to her signature blend of Regency romance, comedy, and historical adventure.
