On the eve of battle, passions are running high.…"A brilliant achievement…vivid, accurate, dramatic…the description of Waterloo is magnificent." —Daily Mail"The best historical novelist." —Margaret DrabbleIn the summertime of 1815, with Napolean Bonaparte marching down from the north, Brussels is a whirlwind of parties, balls and soirees. Within the swirling social scene surrounding the Duke of Wellington and his noble aides de camp, no one attracts more attention than the stunning, outrageous young widow Lady Barbara Childe. On the first meeting, dashing Colonel Charles Audley proposes to her, but even their betrothal doesn't calm her wild behavior. Finally, with the Battle of Waterloo raging just miles away, civilians fleeing and the wounded pouring back to the city, Lady Barbara discovers where her heart really lies, and just like a true noblewoman, she rises to the occasion, and to the demands of love, life, and war.…"Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic. Georgette Heyer achieves what the rest of us only desire to." —Katie Fforde
