Tell me why you want to win and which Heyer novels you would love to read. I personally recommend Friday's Child, which was my first Heyer book. *G*

This is truly an amazing contest! All About Romance is giving away an ARC of Seduce Me At Sunrise by Lisa Kleypas that doesn't come out till October!

The Grand Sophy has always been my favourite Heyer book.
So far I have only read Friday's Child and was blown away! What was I waiting for??
Would you like to be placed into the contest Kristie? *G*
Please enter me!! I haven't read a Heyer book yet and I really want to. Maybe if they were on my desk taunting me everyday I might actually get around to it :-)
Katie: *g* I already own most of her books - cut my teeth on her I did, so chances are I already have the winning ones. So - next time *g*.
But a couple more to recommend - These Old Shades and Devil's Cub.
The hero in TOS is quite a bit older than the heroine and he's almost scarily cold - but she is such a match for him anyway. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who reads romance to try Georgette Heyer. Her books aren't like we read today - but they are lovely anyway - and some of them, like The Grand Sophy are wonderfully funny
I think I would want to win THE NONESUCH or DEVIL'S CLUB. Or any of them, really, seeing as how I've never read a GH book.
Ah!!! I want all three books! Why? Why do you do this to me? @_@
I would love to read any book by Heyer. I've never read a book by her and I've been told she is the lady that truly started it all with historicals.
Throwing my lot in here as well, I'd love to win any of them since I've never read any Heyer and would like to.
*Shameless self-plug* I'm also giving away a copy of Deanna Raybourn's Silent in the Grave over on my blog - you have until midnight tonight Pacific time to enter!
These books sound good!

Enter me please! I haven't read any Heyer, but I see a lot of recommendations so I'll have to check her books out sometime (I saw but missed the recent giveaway on SBTB). Faro's Daughter or Cotillion looks interesting.
I would like to win a Heyer book because I've been reading about them everywhere! I have no idea which one I want to read! so yes, please enter me. :)
