Publisher's Summary
The first novel in Julia Quinn's worldwide best-selling 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)
"Quinn is a master of historical romance." (Entertainment Weekly)

Enjoyable
The story was good (nothing too spectacular) but it was the narration that made this for me. I was listening at x 1.35 speed though. In any case, this was thoroughly enjoyable and I would recommend you give it a go before the show's premiere.

A fun and dramatic love story
Such a fun listen. The voices really matched the descriptions of the characters. I quite liked Anthony's character. And Daphne is a badass 😎 You end up liking all the characters in their own way.
The story was surprisingly erotic too. It was all well written and well narrated.

Absolutely brilliant
What can I say but absolutely brilliant. I've listened to this book at least 3 times so far and loved every moment. the books are always better then the movie or series cause they leave out alot of the good parts. Narrator was excellent, always brings out the best of each character.

So Entertaining
After just finishing the first season, I was wondering if it would hold me as enthralled. And it certainly did. Amazing and funny. I also liked hearing Simon's pov it was a good insight into his character.
