Editor's Notes

The daughter of a country parson with limited means, Arabella dreams of starting a new life in the milieu of London’s high society. Her looks, charm and the benevolence of a doting godmother are sufficient to secure her first season in the capital, but it isn’t long before her notoriously short temper results in a run-in with the dashing Robert Beaumaris. Is this the start of a raging battle of wills or a tempestuous courtship? Beautifully illustrated by Sally Dunne, and published in series with the best-selling Venetia, this gorgeous edition is a must-have for Georgette Heyer fans and anyone who couldn't tear themselves away from the glitz, glamour and gossip of Bridgerton. This is regency romance at its finest, with a female protagonist as independent as the era allowed, and all the exacting period details that have ensured Heyer’s continued reign as queen of the genre.

About the Author

Georgette Heyer was born in Wimbledon in 1902. She wrote her first novel The Black Moth for her younger brother Boris and, following her father’s encouragement, it was published in 1921 when Heyer was still just 19. She went on to write over 50 novels and became best-known for her historical fiction, including Regency Buck (1935), Arabella (1949; Folio 2022), The Grand Sophy (1950), Venetia (1958; Folio 2021) and Frederica (1965; Folio 2023). Heyer died in London in 1974.
