I love when the book is better! Just so many more details then a tv show or movie. But this book idk if I’d say it’s better or not. There are ALOT more details, & I loved reading them. & the storyline was different then the show, & I still loved the storyline. But what I do not like is Anthony’s personality in the first half of the book. He was very much an asshole. He shows very little respect for any women who he might make his wife, planning to have a mistress & all; I really was not a fan of his personality, I’m glad they died it down in the show, I mean he could be an ass at first, especially to Kate, but he wasn’t an asshole. I’m glad I only have 2 books to compare to the show, hopefully I’ll read the rest of the series before their seasons come out, & I won’t be comparing them to eachother anymore. 🤞🏻

I enjoyed this book a lot more than I did the first one - The Duke and I. Anthony and Kate’s relationship is so fun to read, yet also was very emotional at times. Coming from someone who’s watched the first two seasons of Bridgerton before starting the book series, I loved how we got to explore Kate’s feelings towards her biological mother and how that impacted her. Not to mention, we also got to see more of Anthony’s feelings in relation to the loss of his father. All in all, a good read! Especially if you enjoy the Netflix series!

Pretty solid cute romance! I liked this one a bit more than the first book. Antony is sort of a dick for no reason sometimes but his behaviors and viewpoints that stem from his actual trauma were well done and I liked to see the character growth there. I loved Kate's writing and personality as well, she was fun to get to know.
