Just finished reading Friday's Child, by Georgette Heyer. Bought last year when there was a big sale on Heyer eBooks. I bought just about every one I could and I've been parsing them out slowly to make them last.
Friday's Child starts out with the Viscount being rejected by the Beauty, and vowing to "marry the next woman I see". The plot takes even more than the usual level of twists and turns, and ends up where all Heyer's end up -- with all the good people happy and any villans vanquished. In between it's a funny, often ridiculous, and delightfully well written story. Definitely one of her better ones.
Highly recommended. 5 out of 5.
