Hi All,
Does anyone have any other ideas for regency appropriate compliments that a suave, flirty guy would say to the heroine in front of the hero while at a ball?
In my latest, a supporting character tells the heroine that she is looking "as fine as five-pence". I know he could always say something like she is a diamond of the first water, slap up to the echo, all the crack, or something like that, but the male character - though a flirt - is not a young, hip sort of guy.
Problem is, I am beginning to think that even "as fine as five-pence" is too hip for him to say. I don't want to have him simply tell her she looks beautiful, but would prefer to keep it regency.
Any suggestions??
Thanks everyone!
