In the Regency era, all the ballrooms and living rooms of London are bound by unwritten and inviolable rules: how to talk to an earl, what knyxen should be performed in front of a prince... A duke should be domineering and indifferent, and a young lady of marriageable age should be friendly, but not too much so.
Daphne Bridgerton, the fourth of eight descendants of a surprisingly friendly noble family, has a friendly character, in contrast to most of the swaggering young ladies of her age, so she easily finds a common language with almost all the upperclassmen of London. But Viscountess Bridgerton will not wait for an interesting marriage proposal for her eldest daughter. Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings, has recently returned from abroad and is trying to avoid social noise, or even going out into the world, because he has decided never to marry. He has personal motives for that, caused by a family drama. Meeting the sister of Anthony Bridgerton's best friend opens a different path for him. If Daphne agrees to their feigned courtship, Simon will be able to turn down the mothers of young ladies who are eager for the unmarried Duke's attention. Instead, Daphne will see new perspectives, and her reputation will skyrocket. Will this plan work if only one thing is true in the cruel, glittering, gossip-filled world of London's elite: love cannot be held back by rules.
About the author.
Fashion is changeable: once millions of fans around the world read the novels of Stephanie Mayer or Erica James, and now one more has been added to these names - Julia Quinn (Pottinger). The author was even inducted into the US Novelist Hall of Fame, and the novels from her wildly popular Bridgerton series became bestsellers 19 times! Translated into 41 languages, they formed the basis of a hit series from Netflix. It is currently the most popular English-language streaming show of all time, and has been renewed for 2 more seasons, with several more spin-offs.
Why should you buy?
• What makes The Bridgertons so popular—over 50,000 reviews on Goodreads with an average score of 4.5? Why is everyone suddenly a fan of the Regency era? Perhaps you should pick up this book (this is the first translation of the series into Ukrainian) to find the answers for yourself.
• Spicy and frankness, the ability to talk about uncomfortable topics about relationships, "packaging" modern social trends (feminism, crisis of masculinity, etc.) in a historical entourage - these are Quinn's recipes for success, which can "hook" both the student and her professor.
