Daphne and Simon’s story. In the ballrooms and drawing rooms of Regency London, rules abound — and Daphne Bridgerton has always struggled with the most important one. The fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family, she’s kind, witty and well-liked by every eligible young man in town, yet somehow desired by none; she’s simply too honest to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen.

Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings, shares none of her amiability. Newly returned to England, he intends to shun both marriage and society. But an encounter with his best friend’s sister offers an unexpected solution. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can finally deter the ambitious mamas parading their daughters before him — and Daphne, romantically linked to one of London’s most desirable catches, will see her own prospects soar. The plan works like a charm, at first. But in the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London’s elite, there’s only one certainty: love ignores every rule.

Perfect for readers who love Regency romance, a fake-courtship-turned-real, sparkling banter and the world of Bridgerton — and anyone collecting the series in these beautiful matching editions.
