What Regency Romance Heroine Are You?

Ingenue
Ah, how sweet - you are an Ingenue. You are the

youngest of the heroines, sweet yet not

insipid, pretty but not cloying, and just out

of the schoolroom. You have been living in

the country all your life, and are part of a

large family. Your father is probably a

curate, and you are not very well off.

Despite your youth and naivety, or perhaps

because of it, you are quite fearless and

will not follow convention just because it is

the thing to do. Instead of being properly

bored at society events, you are excited just

to be there. An older and jaded member of

the Ton, who is cynical about women and had

never intended to marry, finds you refreshing

and adorable, and quickly falls under your

spell. Despite all warnings, you fall in

love with him in return. It transpires that

his black reputation and cynical exterior

hide a kind and noble, yet deeply wounded,

heart, and you marry and live happily ever

after. Make the most of this while it lasts,

because I fear your sort of heroine is quite

annoying, and rapidly falling out of favour

with modern novelists.
