Bridgerton

Daphne’s success on the marriage market attracts the attention of a real prince, forcing Simon to confront feelings that were never supposed to become part of their arrangement.

Daphne and Simon’s pretend courtship transforms her fortunes, but Nigel Berbrooke threatens to turn one compromising encounter into a forced marriage. Meanwhile,  through flashbacks we can understand the childhood trauma that has lead to Simon’s refusal to marry or have children.

Daphne Bridgerton enters the 1813 marriage market as Queen Charlotte’s favourite, but her prospects rapidly deteriorate thanks to her overprotective brother. A chance encounter with the marriage-averse Duke of Hastings provides an ingenious solution to both their problems.
