The first novel in Julia Quinn's worldwide bestselling Bridgerton novels, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. This is the story of Daphne Bridgerton and the Duke: welcome to the ballrooms of Regency London . . . Can there be any greater challenge to London's Ambitious Mamas than an unmarried duke? Lady Whistledown's Society Papers, April 1813 By all accounts, Simon Basset is on the verge of proposing to his best friend's sister, the lovely - and almost-on-the-shelf - Daphne Bridgerton. But the two of them know the truth - it's all an elaborate plan to keep Simon free from marriage-minded society mothers. And as for Daphne, surely she will attract some worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable . . . Their ruse works like a charm - at first. But as Daphne waltzes across ballroom after ballroom with Simon, it's hard to remember that their courtship is a complete sham. Maybe it's his devilish smile, certainly it's the way his eyes seem to burn every time he looks at her. It wasn't the plan, but it seems she's falling for the duke, for real. And amidst the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London's elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule . . . 'Light, pacy and full of feisty heroines' Guardian on the Bridgerton series 'Julia Quinn's Bridgerton books take all of the classic tropes we know and love . . . and gives them a thoroughly modern twist. I can't focus on anything else' Stylist 'Quinn is a master of historical romance' Entertainment Weekly 'A smart, funny touch' Time Magazine

Special mention to the perfect reader, somehow all the character voices sound unique and fitting, and different from the third party narrator.Great book if you love the Netflix serie, much more detail but tighty focused on Daphne and Simon, no side story lines for her siblings or the Featheringtons or mentions of the queen and all that.

The female main character is so focused on having children that she rapes her drunk and unconscious husband and people think this story is heartwarming, cozy and romantic? Wth

I didn’t find a perfect emoji for this feeling but I also felt annoyed in one point. But mostly I liked it and I will read the next parts for sure.

I personally don't care for children, but the scenes between the two of them were oh so thrilling. All the courtship and steamy gazes thrown were so pleasing. Hopefully the next books will be at least as this nice. And I did enjoy how much this book differed from the Netflix show.
