Histoire
Horry Winwood doesn't play by the rules. So when her family are near ruin and her sister is about to enter a loveless marriage to a wealthy man to settle the family debts, young and headstrong Horry proposes to marry him instead. As her new husband's attentions fall elsewhere, Horry feels increasingly unhappy. Then she meets the attractive and dangerous Lord Lethbridge, and her days suddenly become more exciting. But there is bad blood between Horry's husband and Lord Lethbridge, and as complications and deceptions mount, the social tangle grows ever trickier to unpick.

Histoire
The Honourable Christopher Fancot, on leave from the diplomatic service in the summer of 1817, is startled to find his entrancing but incorrigibly extravagant mother on the brink of financial and social ruin - and more than alarmed to find that his twin, Evelyn, has disappeared without trace. Christopher - Kit - is forced into an outrageous masquerade by the tangled affairs of his wayward family: his rigid uncle, Lord Brumby; the surprisingly wily Sir Bonamy Ripple; the formidable old Lady Stavely and Evelyn's betrothed, Cressy.

Description

A Beloved Classic from the Queen of the Regency Romance
A fiery debutante. An ill-tempered bachelor. A romance for the ages.
Arabella, the daughter of an impoverished country parson, dreams of a new life in London. But her beauty and charm will only get her so far - and when Arabella embarks on her first London season armed with nothing but a benevolent godmother and her own notoriously short temper, she quickly runs afoul of Robert Beaumaris.
He's the most eligible bachelor of the day, with a personality as strong and combative as hers - and Arabella cannot abide him thinking of her as just another pretty girl after his wealth. So she allows herself to be provoked into a game of deception - one that could have unexpected consequences....
Arabella is a rich, dashing romance from Georgette Heyer, the legendary creator of the beloved Regency romance genre.

Another great Heyer book
I listened to the audiobook for this and it had been 7 years since I last read it. The narrator, Gemma Whelan, did an excellent job and I want to listen to more of Heyer's books read by her.
As for the story, it's a good one, one of the top read from Heyer, and pretty high up there for me, too. Arabella isn't a weak-willed heroine, although sometimes too naïve for me, but Robert Beaumaris, the hero, is great. There are some funny moments and overall the pace is good. The setting takes place in London and is all about a girl debuting for her first Season during the Regency period, which I find interesting. Heyer doesn't spare any details and really is an expert.
