Pistols for Two

This is a collection of Heyers short stories, mostly stories about elopments and love at first sight romances. My favourite is Night at the Inn, because it has a couple who are not that well off, as hero and heroine. Mary is a governess, daughter of a poor clergyman and John is a clerk who has returned from Spain to be promoted to a higher job in England. THey stay at an inn where the staff seem unfriendly, and then they find the next day that the landlord was a murderer like Sweeney Todd. Another story I like is A Husband for Fanny, where a widow finds that the man she had been hoping to marry her daughter Fanny is in fact in love with her, and they get engaged. The stories are short but well plotted and written.
