I mean it was a nice romance really wasn’t it. At first it was a little too Cinderella-y, and Benedict was a bit too entitled for my liking, but I did really enjoy how everything came together at the end. Another happy heart-warming story.

Eu costumo avaliar minhas leituras com base em duas coisas: a proposta do livro em questão e a minha experiência com o mesmo. De "Um perfeito cavalheiro", esperava um bom romance fofo e divertido para ler rapidinho e aquecer o coração. Acabou que quase chorei, me emocionei em diversos momentos e torci tanto pra esse casal que nem cabe aqui.
Acho justo dizer que essa história é realmente muito doce e tocante, um reconto de Cinderela, sobre amor a primeira vista (que acho muito difícil de tornar substancial mas aqui veio certinho), com um mocinho sensível e uma mocinha cheia de força.
No mais, tudo se encaixou e essa leitura acabou sendo basicamente realizada em um dia, foi perfeito pra me dar um quentinho enorme no coração. Amei.

This is definitely one of the best of the Bridgerton book series.
I didn't expect to love this book as much as I did but this book reminded me of Cinderella meets Downton Abbey and let me tell you, I am here for it.
Benedict - a character we don't really get to see too much from the previous two books is honestly so cute. He is the perfect mix of brooding hero and a charming gentleman and I was really interested in his point of view.
Sophie Beckett was relatable - the kind of girl I felt for and could see myself being friends with. She is honestly one of the more realistic characters of the Bridgerton series so far and her backstory was really interesting.
- The romance was believable
- The pacing of the plot was done well and I was hooked.
- The ending left me wanting more.
I honestly think this book is so far my favourite but Colin and Penelope's book is next and I have a feeling I am going to love it (I've been waiting for it).
