Book Review: Black Sheep
Summary: 5 Stars
I had read some of Georgette Heyer's books when I was a teen-ager. Somehow I found this book in a bookstore and I bought it right away. One of the reasons I hadn't read Georgette Heyer for a long time is her heroes are always so much older than the heroines, that said I was pleasantly surprised with this book as Abigail is a matured woman and the relationshop between her and the hero is believable and is between equals.I just loved the book and recommend it highly. This book shows how you can write a romance story without the book mentioning even the word 'sex'.
I wish Georgette Heyer had written more books!!!!!!!!!!
Summary of Black Sheep
Abigail Wendover, on the shelf at 28, is kept busy when her niece falls head over heels in love with a handsome fortune hunter and Abbie is forced into a confrontation with his scandalous uncle.Miles Calvery is the black sheep of his family- enormously rich from a long sojourn in India, disconcertingly blunt and brash. But he turns out to be Abbie's most important ally in keeping her niece out of trouble.
But how can he possibly be considered eligible when she has worked so hard to rebuff his own nephew's suit for her niece? And how can she possibly detach from an ailing sister who needs her? This is a heroine who has to be, literally, swept off her feet . . .
