The Nonesuch
AuthorGeorgette Heyer

ETA: Upping my rating to a solid 4 stars on reread. The things that bothered me most the first time I read this bothered me less this time around. I was able to be more amused by Tiffany the spoiled brat, not just annoyed. It’s pretty funny to see how Sir Waldo and Miss Trent manage her.
