This is one of my fave Heyer books. From the back cover:

It was the most brilliant match of the season -- the marriage of dazzlingly wealthy Lord Cardross to the ravishingly beautiful and vivacious Lady Nell. But the viscount's winsome bride harbors a secret in her heart: she is deeply, irretrievably in debt. Unable to reveal the truth to her husband, Nell tries to settle her muddled affairs but finds herself caught up in a terrible deception.

The instant he laid eyes on Nell, Sir Giles was completely captivated. Yet when the priceless Cardross jewels disappear, he must sort through a maze of suspicion and scandal which seemingly implicates his enchanting bride. To discover the truth means he can claim the reward he so passionately wants -- Nell's undying love.
