About this listen

The first novel in Julia Quinn's worldwide best-selling Bridgerton novels, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. This is the story of Daphne Bridgerton and the Duke: welcome to the ballrooms of Regency London.....

Can there be any greater challenge to London's Ambitious Mamas than an unmarried duke? Lady Whistledown's Society Papers, April 1813.

By all accounts, Simon Basset is on the verge of proposing to his best friend's sister, the lovely - and almost-on-the-shelf - Daphne Bridgerton. But the two of them know the truth - it's all an elaborate plan to keep Simon free from marriage-minded society mothers. And as for Daphne, surely she will attract some worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable....

Their ruse works like a charm - at first. But as Daphne waltzes across ballroom after ballroom with Simon, it's hard to remember that their courtship is a complete sham. Maybe it's his devilish smile, certainly it's the way his eyes seem to burn every time he looks at her. It wasn't the plan, but it seems she's falling for the duke, for real. And amidst the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London's elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule....

Delightful!!

Although I really enjoyed the Netflix series of The Bridgertons, the audio book was just so much more. Rosalyn Landor's narration was phenomenal and had me hanging on her lips throughout. This story is really good and entertaining and I loved it!

Smiled the whole way through

I loved this book. The characters are written very well and all have there own personalities. I was smiling and feeling embarrassed through out the book. How society has changed, how the everyday was so different, women couldn’t be out and about without an escort. I loved the storyline and how the relationship between the Duke and Daphne developed. The whole Bridgerton family was a hoot. It was very much worth a read.

Loved it!

Loved it. The narrator is especially great. The conflict is resolved a bit too quickly, but otherwise it's great. Full of great, engaging characters.

quite good, but..

something that happened around chapter 19 and 20 made it impossible for me to give more than 3 star for the story.. that scene almost ruined everything for me.. such a blemish in otherwise a good story..

Wonderful Book

Loved it, the narrator made the book come to life so muc so that I got hot and bothered by her descriptions in the love scenes.
