Amazon.com Review
This charming collection of four Regency tales by well-loved authors is a sheer delight. "Katie and the Sea Captain" by Donna Davidson is the wonderful story of Katherine Alden, a brilliantly artistic and talented lady who loves a difficult, handsome sea captain. "Scandalous" by Teresa Desjardien has the dashing Lord Travers ignoring his fiancée, Clara Northdon, until a clever and scandalous scheme forces his hand. "A Last Waltz" by Isobel Linton threatens beautiful Phillipa Sommerville with scandal at Almacks until powerful Sir Guy Trent takes her under his wing. "Lady of Intrigue" by Alice Holden finds James Ware, a former Bow Street Runner, getting more than he bargained for when he decides to help lovely Rachel Kendall solve an mystery and recover stolen jewels. Readers will find hours of pleasure in this enchanting anthology.

Great Regency Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: An Evening At Almack's (Mass Market Paperback)
A fine collection--witty, detailed, accurate, fun. What more can you ask for? I especially liked the story by Isobel Linton, "A Last Waltz."

Poorly written, lacking in charm,
By paudie@ibl.bm (Devonshire, Bermuda) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Evening At Almack's (Mass Market Paperback)
A very disappointing read. I purchased this book in the faint hope that I could find a writer that equalled Georgette Heyer in wit and charm in this genre. There is nothing here that even approaches Ms. Heyer and a lot that will make any intelligent woman squirm. Do not waste your money. I would have accorded this book less than one star but that was the lowest option available.
