Some of them are even plotted like mysteries (The Talisman Ring, frex - though that's Georgian).

I got a pile of them a while back but read only a couple, those being the mysteries, which I liked a lot. But it's her Regency romances that she is best know for, no? So I should dive into Friday's Child or Cotillion.
