What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
April Lady is read by Tanya Reynolds, star of Sex Education.
Nell Cardross and her husband are madly in love...
But they're very bad at showing it. While Nell believes her new husband, the Earl, married her out of convenience, Giles Cardross worries that his young wife is more interested in his money than his heart.
And Nell's secretive and extravagant spending is becoming a problem...
As she attempts to pay off her brother's never-ending gambling debts, and prevent the Earl's half-sister from eloping with a potentially ruinous match, will Nell's heart of gold lead her - and her marriage - into trouble?
'One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's' JOANNE HARRIS
'Absolutely delicious tales of Regency heroes. . . Utter, immersive escapism' SOPHIE KINSELLA
'If you haven't read Georgette Heyer yet, what a treat you have in store!' Harriet Evans
