My first romance was "These Old Shades"! I fell in love with Ms Heyer at that moment and she will always be the standard to which I compare any romance book to! I can remember the utter joy when I discovered Devils Cub was a continuation. I totally agree with you on all your points. Venetia will always be near and dear to my heart. I have a special fondness for The Toll Gate and Friday's Child too. I loved all of her books and it is absolutely wonderful that her novels are being reprinted. I am picking up each one as they come out so that my poor tattered paper backs can stay in their carefully protected plastic container. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who couldn't figure out why she changed the names in TOS when anyone could clearly see they were the same people. I always love to hear people talk about her books. She was such a wonderful writer! And what is funny, is that everyone who has read one of her books has read many, many more!
