Arabella

Author(s): Georgette Heyer

Fiction

A dashing and thrilling romance from one of our best-known and most beloved historical novelists.


An enchanting debutante and the eldest daughter of an impoverished country parson, Arabella embarks on her first London season. Armed with beauty, virtue and a benevolent godmother (as well as a notoriously impetuous temper) she quickly runs afoul of Robert Beaumaris, the most eligible Nonpareil of the day. When he accuses her of being yet another pretty female after his wealth, Arabella allows herself to be provoked - into a deceitful charade that might have quite unexpected consequences...


Arabelle is a tale of Regency romance from the creator - and still the best writer - of this beloved genre.
