This is so far my favourite Bridgerton book. Sophie is so loveable and although I wasn’t the biggest fan of Benedict at the start he grew on me really fast. Can’t wait to read the next one

Didn't pick up pace until chapter 3, but then I couldn't stop! Such a good story! I look forward to seeing the next season of Bridgerton to compare the book and show!
