The Bridgerton Clan is “Scandal”-ous!

 I’m working my way through the “Bridgerton” prequels at a rate faster than I anticipated, but definitely enjoying each one!  I just finished “The Other Miss Bridgerton” by Julia Quinn a day or two ago, and am eager to start “First Comes Scandal!”  

Georgiana Bridgerton isn’t against the idea of marriage. She’d just thought she’d have some say in the matter. But with her reputation hanging by a thread after she’s abducted for her dowry, Georgie is given two options: live out her life as a spinster or marry the rogue who has ruined her life. 

As the fourth son of an earl, Nicholas Rokesby is prepared to chart his own course. He has a life in Edinburgh, where he’s close to completing his medical studies, and he had no time—or interest—to find a wife. But when he discovers that Georgie Bridgerton—his literal girl-next-door—is facing ruin, he knows what he must do. 

It might not have been the most romantic of proposals, but Nicholas never thought she’d say no. Georgie doesn’t want to be anyone’s sacrifice, and besides, they could never think of each other as anything more than childhood friends…or could they?

But as they embark upon their unorthodox courtship, they discover a new twist to the age-old rhyme.  First comes scandal, then comes marriage.  But after that comes love…. 

I’d better get started on the next leg of my “journey” through the “Bridgerton” prequels!  To delay the “journey” further might cause a bigger “Scandal” than any other in my literary history!
