I just finished reading "Romancing Mister Bridgerton," the fourth book in Julia Quinn's "Bridgerton" series. The highlight, aside from the romance between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington, was the revelation of the identity of Lady Whistledown. I'm not sure what excitement will come with future books in the "Bridgerton" series now that the secret has been revealed, but I'm looking forward to taking another "journey" with Julia Quinn as I turn the pages of "To Sir Phillip, With Love," the next book in the "Bridgerton" series.
Sir Philip knew that Eloise Bridgerton was a spinster, and so he'd proposed, figuring that she'd be homely and unassuming, and more than a little desperate for an offer of marriage. Except...she wasn't. The beautiful woman on his doorstep was anything but quiet, and when she stopped talking long enough to close her mouth, all he wanted to do was kiss her--and more.
Did he think she was mad? Eloise Bridgerton couldn't marry a man she had never met! But then she started thinking...and wondering...and before she knew it, she was in a hired marriage in the middle of the night, on her way to meet the man she hoped might be her perfect match. Except...he wasn't. Her perfect husband wouldn't be so moody and ill-mannered, and while Phillip was certainly handsome, he was a large brute of a man, rough and rugged, and totally unlike the London gentlemen vying for her hand. but when he smiled, and when he kissed her, the rest of the world simply fell away, and she couldn't help but wonder...could this imperfect man be perfect for her? I guess Eloise and I will both discover the answer to that question as I take another "Journey Through A Book!"
