Turkish Delight

By Rosemary Edghill

Book Overview

It was through no fault of her own that Lady Louisa Darwen had spent most of her formative years in the harem of the Grand Seraglio at Constantinople, and from the moment young, unconventional Louisa enters London Society for her first Season, the genteel equilibrium of the higher classes begins to go seriously awry. Eastern-raised Louisa has her own ideas of what she wants--and finding a husband is not (so she thinks) among them. As the Season progresses, the confusions and misunderstandings increase, plots thicken, and well-laid schemes come to sinister fruition, as Louisa begins to realize that perhaps there are still a few things the Turkish harem didn't teach her--and the most unsuitable man might be exactly the husband she wants.

Customer Reviews

Quite Witty

While the plot devices are standard (and, considering how many Regency romances have been written, it is VERY hard not to rehash what has already been written) I enjoyed this book because of the brilliant dialog. Rosemary Edghill spent quite a bit of time keeping the conversations between the various characters witty and interesting. This book is definitely for readers who would enjoy the elegant and refined repartee moreso than a dashing plot and a suspenseful ending. The added bonus of multiple lovestories throughout the book was a nice touch, too. Very predictable plot but I didn't mind too much because it was so much fun getting to a thoroughly delightul ending!
