Synopsis
IN LOVE WITH AN IMPROPER STRANGER
At twenty-give, Venetia Lanyon was far too close to spinsterhood to reject the attentions of the impeccable Mr. Edward Yardley. But the headstrong beauty vowed she'd rather die than marry a man she didn't love - especially since meeting her long-absent neighbor, the scandalous Lord Damerel.
He was quite the most dashing, yes dangerous, man she had ever known. And now, unwillingly, she was in his debt, tempted to cast her good name and reputation to the winds of fate!

From the Inside Flap
In all her twenty-five years, lovely Venetia Lanyon has never been further than Harrogate. Then she meets her neighbour, Lord Damerel, and before she knows better, she is egging on a libertine whose way of life has scandalized the county for years.
About the Author
The late Georgette Heyer was a very private woman. Her historical novels have charmed and delighted millions of readers for decades, though she rarely reached out to the public to discuss her works or private life. It is known that she was born in Wimbledon in August 1902, and her first novel, The Black Moth, was published in 1921.
Heyer published 56 books over the next 53 years, until her death from lung cancer in 1974. Heyer's large volume of works included Regency romances, mysteries and historical fiction. Known also as the Queen of Regency romance, Heyer was legendary for her research, historical accuracy and her extraordinary plots and characterizations. Her last book, My Lord John, was published posthumously in 1975. She was married to George Ronald Rougier, a mining engineer, and they had one son together, Richard.
