Throughout, he is portrayed as and even mentioned directed as a romantic of the grand tradition. The novel begins with Gregory Bridgerton rushing to the chapel to stop a wedding and propose to the bride. In a reflective moment, Gregory contemplates how all his brothers and sisters are all betrothed and still “besotted with their spouses.” The Bridgerton family is thus a living symbol that a happily-ever-after may not exist just in fairy tales.
Well, not spectacularly, since his father died young, but at least up to that unfortunate encounter with a honeybee, the marriage of his parents had been beyond reproach. Gregory Bridgerton comes from a large family in which marriage has thus far worked out spectacularly well. We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.

But for a sneak peek at what might happen next-Will Penelope Featherington reveal herself as Lady Whistledown? Will Anthony find true love? What will Marina name her baby? Will you ever recover from the way Regé Jean-Page says “pinnacle”?-it’s time to settle down by the fire for some light, flirtatious reading. Daphne and Simon, the Duke of Hastings, stage an elaborate plot, then find themselves stuck in the web of said plot.
The first season of Bridgerton is based, in large part, on Julia Quinn’s first book, The Duke And I. and you needn’t wait for next season to get the next chapter’s spoilers. I’m of the academic opinion that good romance novels are a boon for society-in particular when those romance novels involve frilly gowns and someone who identifies as a “viscount.” Thankfully, the Bridgerton series has both! If you spent the last few weeks in a Regency-fueled fervor over the new Netflix series from Shonda Rhimes and Chris Van Dusen, you’ll be delighted to learn the show is based on books.
