Publisher's summary

The second book in the beloved and globally best-selling Bridgerton family, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. Welcome to Anthony's story....

1814 promises to be another eventful season, but not, This Author believes, for Anthony Bridgerton, London's most elusive bachelor, who has shown no indication that he plans to marry. And in all truth, why should he? When it comes to playing the consummate rake, nobody does it better....

Lady Whistledown's Society Papers, April 1814

Anthony Bridgerton needs a wife. Having spent his 20s in a rakish pursuit of pleasure (whilst taking care to ensure the financial security of his mother and seven younger siblings and mother) he knows it's high time he settled down and ensured the continuation of the Bridgerton line. Edwina Sheffield is considered the most beautiful debutante of the current season. She is also sweet, innocent and eminently biddable - Anthony is sure she'll make a perfectly acceptable wife and vows to make her his.

The only obstacle in his way is Edwina's older sister, Kate. Kate is determined to do all she can to allow her sister the chance to marry for love rather than convenience. And the roguish viscount is beginning to think he may have met his match in Kate's keen wit and sharp tongue. Until, that is, he makes the mistake of kissing her....

Critic reviews

"Quinn just keeps getting better and better, a fact that's sure to delight readers." (Lois Faye Dyer)

"Captivating and alluring. Hilarious and yet incredibly heart-warming, this is a tale that will charm the most discriminating heart." (Romantic Times)

"A smart, funny touch." (Time Magazine)

Way better than the Netflix version

This is such a fun book. Fun but with great character development.

Plus, this is way better than the Netflix adaptation because the book is really focused on the couple and without any distracting side stories.

Great performance, weak story

Man this was disappointing. The only saving grace is the reader performance, she has THE PERFECT voice for regency dramas.

a tad too long in the middle

solid 4.5 stars.. round up for rosalyn landor performance.. the 2nd epilogue was a nice cherry on top..

Thoroughly romantic and a bit naughty

I am a man and I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. However, I listened to it when I feel the need to escape from the drudgery of life and family problems. What a great distraction! This is not for machos who frowned the romantic side of life. It is well written with a profound insight into childhood traumas and how they can affect the rest of our lives if left unresolved. Loved it.

Excellent performance!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the performance was excellent!
I was introduced to the Bridgerton saga on Netflix, but find the books very entertaining.

The Viscount Who Loved Me - Delightful!!

As was the case with the first Book in the Bridgerton series The Duke and I, I liked and enjoyed the Netflix version, but I simply ADORED the audio book. So much more to a story when you get to know and fall in love with the characters through their inner thoughts and feelings.
The book is also quite a bit different from the movie, but in a better way.
Another thing is that with brilliant narration by Rosalyn Landor, I enjoyed it tremendously.
This was an awesome story by the awesome Julia Quinn. Another winner for sure!
Highly recommended. Get it today, you won’t be sorry.

Long since I’ve finished a book this quick

I really enjoy the Bridgerton series and look forward to the next book already. Surprisingly I favored the first book, as Anthony is a bit annoying. I really do like him much better after learning more about him. Their chemistry was really good and I’m happy with the book. I will recommend it.

A modern lighter Pride & Prejudice

This was a pleasant read, quite engaging although towards the end it got a bit slow

Lovely and wonderful narration

This happened to be my first audible and the narration was absolutely enchanting! Can’t wait to listen to more.

Loved it!

Loved this book! I would highly recommend to a friend! Great narration and well written.
