About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
April Lady is read by Tanya Reynolds, star of Sex Education.
Nell Cardross and her husband are madly in love....
But they're very bad at showing it. While Nell believes her new husband, the Earl, married her out of convenience, Giles Cardross worries that his young wife is more interested in his money than his heart.
And Nell's secretive and extravagant spending is becoming a problem....
As she attempts to pay off her brother's never-ending gambling debts and prevent the Earl's half-sister from eloping with a potentially ruinous match, will Nell's heart of gold lead her - and her marriage - into trouble?

"If you haven't read Georgette Heyer yet, what a treat you have in store!" Harriet Evans
"One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's." (Joanne Harris)

Pure Delight
Perhaps my favourite Heyer story. A delicious tangle of misunderstandings and meddlings which sort themselves out in the end!

New narrator not great
Another brilliant Heyer let down by average narration. Such a shame. The previous version was miles ahead of this one!

Not as captivating as other Georgette Heyer novels
The storyline of April Lady is fairly dull compared to many other Georgette Heyer novels, and the reader's performance is mediocre. At least the ending is satisfying though.

Poor expression by reader
This is a charming story but the reader did not use the humour to effect nor did she inflex words as punctuated by the author. Her variation of tone and character voice was limited and disappointing. Altogether I found the reading quite flat.
