A regency romance novel. Georgette Heyer, an English novelist and short story writer, effectively established the historical romance genre, and its sub-genre of Regency Romances, and has remained popular among readers since the publication of her first novel, The Black Month, in 1921. Although perhaps best known (and collected) for her Regency Romances, which were written with great attention to historical detail, she also wrote thrillers and detective fiction. We have many of her works in stock, and offer generous discounts to those ordering more than one title at a time - please inquire.
