"The year is 1792 in this historical romantic novel, set in high society in London. Every April, all the ambitious mothers whose sole aim is to find a very suitable bachelor for their debutante daughters, have these beautiful balls and teas. They must have wealth and be a high ranking family in society, perhaps a duke. The Bridgerton Family has 8 children. Their daughter, Daphne, is ready to go out to as many parties as she can, always having her mother to be her chaperone. She meets Simon, not knowing he’s a duke. They cook up a plan to pretend they are engaged, but their plan backfires and they fall in love." - T. Gustafson 4/4 stars. |
