About this listen

Simon Basset, the irresistible Duke of Hastings, has hatched a plan to keep himself free from the town's marriage-minded society mothers. He pretends to be engaged to the lovely Daphne Bridgerton. After all, it isn't as if the brooding rogue has any real plans to marry - though there is something about the alluring Miss Bridgerton that sets Simon's heart beating a bit faster.

And as for Daphne, surely the clever debutante will attract some very worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable. But as Daphne waltzes across ballroom after ballroom with Simon, she soon forgets that their courtship is a complete sham. And now she has to do the impossible and keep herself from losing her heart and soul completely to the handsome hell-raiser who has sworn off marriage forever!

Listened after watching Bridgerton on Netflix and wanted more of Simon and Daphne. Story was different than the show, some characters were not in the original books, and this story focused only on Simon and Daphne. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to listen to the whole series!

Very enjoyable!

For someone like myself who has not experienced romance or shivalry this is inspiring that it does exist and really opens up your mind on what is possible. This story is full of education when it comes to true profound love and can make one realize some things they did not know where possible. A very enjoyable listen I highly recommend 👌

Very Romantic with lots of sensuality <3

I have many feelings about this book, and even some notes about specific scenes that particularly bothered me, but I'm honestly just too tired to get into it. Suffice it to say, I enjoyed the plot, but I do not like this author's way of writing. I've tried reading her books before, and while she has a decent sense of humour, and her descriptions can be lovely, I don't like the omniscient POV (I prefer tight third in HR novels), among other things.

Honestly, I look forward to when this comes out on Netflix, because I think that I'll like the way it's portrayed far better on film than how it's written. Not sure if I'll read the others in the series, despite having already bought the next one.

Not My Favourite

Oh my heaving bosoms and rippling thighs... I have never read one of these romance novels and I have to admit it was - for me - a delightful mix of giggles, groans, and blushing cheeks. Could NOT put it down. Not sure if I would play this aloud in a room, but then, that's the fun of it. The narrator was fantastic: would love to have been a fly on the wall when she read this.

OMGoodness goodiness...

wow just wow… bro ima be honest w y’all being a black man that’s 22 i never not in a million years thought i would be entrapped by a book of this genre. No matter the person whoever reads this book after the first chapter will want to finish the rest of the series in a day. this is my one and only review on this app and i think it was well worth it.

wow

The narrator was great! Not my favourite Bridgerton story, but I’m in for the rest!

Great narrator, not the best story

This is a great book to lose yourself in. Wish there was a bit more to the story line.

A good but simple story
