Product Information

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'A veritable treat' Daily Mail The first novel in Julia Quinn's worldwide bestselling Bridgerton novels, now a series created by Shondaland 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 . . . Find out why readers love Julia Quinn . . .

  • best book I have read in months, Julia Quinn will be on my favourite authors list.

    It was a real page turner - I read it in 1 day! Although there are differences in the book to the tv series, the big advantage is I had a mental picture of all the actors who were in the t.v. series.

  • Bridgerton- but much better!

    I had this as an audio book and hadn’t seen the series. The book is vastly better than the series, so got the actual book. Fully recommend it!
