Ggmamajo
Hero, is a young orphan adopted by a cantankerous old man who is rich, but cannot bear to spend any money on anyone but himself. She has led a very secluded life in Yorkshire and her guardian offers to leave his fortune to her if she marries one of his nephews. Two eligible nephews turn up and propose (one reluctantly) and the fun begins. Third nephew Freddy a Marquis comes and is talked into a pretend engagement, takes her to his family in London, she has a great time. Plenty of humour, adventure, and romance before the happy ending. Lovely story. Georgette Heyer is the greatest for historical romance.
