If you like Jane Austin's books

If you like Jane Austin's books, then you will have a special treat with Georgette Heyer's books. She has a special way of creating an interesting and an entertaining plot that is humorous and intriguing. In The Reluctant Widow the villains are surprising, bad, and amusing at times. The hero and heroin are charming and witty. Heyer can pull you into her amusing, clever plot and keep you highly entertained until the end of the story.
Then add the gift of someone reading the story to you. The characters become more alive and captivating, adding to the enjoyment of the plot. I highly recommend this book as one you will enjoy rereading or listening to many times.
