The short story is simply not the right vehicle for so much melodrama. Seriously though, romantic short stories? Not enough time for character development and far too predictable for my taste. No standouts here. (

Read only the three stories that aren't in Pistols for Two :
- Pursuit
- Runaway Match
- Incident on the Bath Road

They were all great.

Previously titled Pistols for Two, this edition includes three recently discovered short stories. A treat for all fans of Georgette Heyer, and for those who love stories full of romance and intrigue.

Affairs of honour between bucks and blades, rakes and rascals; affairs of the heart between heirs and orphans, beauties and bachelors; romance, intrigue, escapades and duels at dawn. All the gallantry, villainy and elegance of the age that Georgette Heyer has so triumphantly made her own are exquisitely revived in these wonderfully romantic stories of the Regency period.

Contents:
Snowdrift
Full Moon
Pistols for Two
A Clandestine Affair
Bath Miss
A Husband for Fanny
To Have the Honour
Night at the Inn
The Duel
Hazard
Pursuit
Runaway Match
Incident on the Bath Road (

The stories from Pistols for Two, plus three previously unpublished tales, which were typically amusing. (

Didn't read the whole thing. Just the last 3 short stories that hadn't been published in it's predecessor. I found them divertingly witty. (
