I finished the second "Bridgerton" book this afternoon. "The Viscount Who Loved Me" by Julia Quinn didn't disappoint. Still wondering what was the point of the author mentioning Edwina. Other than being the sister of the woman Anthony ultimately ended up with (though, in truth, Edwina was the one who Anthony originally wanted to be with! Gotta love Cupid and his sense of humor!), Edwina served no real purpose (at least in my opinion!). There were occasional mentions of Daphne and Simon, the main characters from the first book in the "Bridgerton" series, as well as some of the other Bridgerton siblings. As with the first book, the eroticism was tastefully steamy! The first two books were real page-turners; I hope the same can be said for the third book, "An Offer From A Gentleman," which I intend to start reading ASAP!
Sophie Beckett never dreamed that she'd be able to sneak into Lady Bridgerton's formal masquearade ball--or that "Prince Charming" would be waiting there for her! Though the daughter of an earl, Sophie has been relegated to the role of servant by her disddainful stepmother. But now, spinning in the strong arms of the debonair and devastatingly handsome Benedict Bridgerton, she feels like royalty. Alas, she knows all enchantments must end when the clock strikes midnight. Ever since that magical night, a radiant vision in silver has blinded Benedict to the attractions of any other--except, perhaps, this allluring and oddly familiar abeauty dressed in housemaid's garb whom he feels compelled to rescue from a most disagreeable situation. He has sworn to find and wed his mystery miss, but this breathtaking maid makes him weak with wanting her. Yet, if he offers her his heart, will Benedict sacrifice his only chance for a fairy-tale love? I'm hoping that question can be answered as I take another "Journey Through A Book!"
