A very nice regency romance with adventure thrown in, also not as light reading as for example Georgette Heyer. I was a little disappointed as I'd hoped for something gothic, but all in all a very enjoyable read.

Watch the Wall,My Darling was originally published in 1966.
Should we judge books by their cover? I've heard we should not but I do anyway. This cover really drew me in. This is a suspenseful historical gothic romance. The suspense really built up for me and I wasn't sure what to expect in this darkly atmospheric book.

I enjoyed this book so much. It had a similar feel to several Georgette Heyer's books which are fabulous! Loved seeing the change of heart within the characters and learning more about that historical period!
