This book is really cute and, in some parts, laugh-out-loud funny.  It's the first Georgette Heyer book I've read.  It is originally copyrighted 1934, but set in the Regency period.  I like the spunky heroine, Horry, and am very happy to have my daughters read this.  I object to some of the colloquial language, but that's because I didn't grow up then and am unfamiliar with the common use of lord.  Not a deal-breaker, though.
