Destructo The Mad | 2/13/2014
" I don't read romance novels in general, but I do read, and enjoy, Georgette Heyer's Regency romances. She has such a deft touch, and the dry humor that permeates her dialogue is brilliant. "

Suzie | 12/4/2013
" I loved the nurturing older sister as the heroine and a hero who really needed 'responsibilities', which he got in the form of Frederica's younger siblings. Sweet story! "
-




Tyler-rose | 12/4/2013

-




Jenny | 4/24/2012

-




Donna | 10/9/2011
" During my romance genre study I have to say that I really didn't like most of the books. But this regency romance is quite good...as close to Jane Austen as a 20th cent. writer can get. "
-




Kristen | 6/23/2011
" I just could not get into this book, I tried several times but the writing and the descriptions just were so boring.... "
-

"
-




Julianne | 4/1/2011
" Fun read. Predictable. Annoying use of regency slang and vernacular, trying to show off Heyer's great research. Still, cute and gratifying because it ends nicely.
"
-




Kristina | 3/27/2011
" It took me awhile to get into this one. Once I was about half way through I was intrigued, but it is highly predictable and I found myself wishing that the conclusion would come sooner.
"
-




Angelyn | 3/26/2011
" Georgette Heyers is a similar author to Jane Austen. My teenage girls really like her books and have asked me to order more. I liked Frederica but liked "These Old Shades" better. I will have to read more of her.
"
-




Rachel | 3/22/2011
