Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn comes the first novel in the beloved Regency-set world of her charming, powerful Bridgerton family, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. In the ballrooms and drawing rooms of Regency London, rules abound. From their earliest days, children of aristocrats learn how to address an earl and curtsey before a prince--while other dictates of the ton are unspoken yet universally understood. A proper duke should be imperious and aloof. A young, marriageable lady should be amiable...but not too amiable. Daphne Bridgerton has always failed at the latter. The fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family, she has formed friendships with the most eligible young men in London. Everyone likes Daphne for her kindness and wit. But no one truly desires her. She is simply too deuced honest for that, too unwilling to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen. Amiability is not a characteristic shared by Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings. Recently returned to England from abroad, he intends to shun both marriage and society--just as his callous father shunned Simon throughout his painful childhood. Yet an encounter with his best friend's sister offers another option. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him. Daphne, meanwhile, will see her prospects and her reputation soar. The plan works like a charm--at first. But amid the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London's elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule... This novel includes the 2nd epilogue, a peek at the story after the story.

Book excerpt: Todos parecían divertirse en aquel baile que reunía a lo más selecto de la sociedad londinense. Todos, excepto ellos dos. Daphne, una hermosa joven agobiada por su madre, y Simon, el huraño nuevo duque de Hastings, tenían el mismo problema: la continua presión para que encontraran pareja. Al conocerse, se les ocurrió el plan perfecto: fingir un compromiso que los liberara de más agobios. Pero no sería sencillo, ya que el hermano de Daphne, amigo de Simon, no es fácil de engañar, ni tampoco lo son las avezadas damas de la alta sociedad. Aunque lo que complicará de verdad las cosas será la aparición de un elemento que no estaba previsto en este juego a dos bandas: el amor. IDEARON UN PLAN PERFECTO EN EL QUE EL AMOR NO TENÍA CABIDA... Desde que fue presentada en sociedad, Daphne no tiene un momento de respiro. La culpa es de su madre, a la que adora, pero que está obsesionada con encontrarle un marido cuanto antes. Lo peor del caso es que los hombres razonablemente deseables no están interesados, y los que sí lo están son unos incansables pesados de los que tiene que librarse... incluso a golpes. Por eso acepta encantada la idea del duque de Hastings de fingir un noviazgo que ahuyente a los pretendientes. Aunque quizá también tenga algo que ver el hecho de que el joven duque comienza a resultarle cada vez más seductor. PERO HAY COSAS DE LAS QUE ES IMPOSIBLE ESCAPAR Marcado por una infancia llena de soledad y resentimiento, Simon Basset, el nuevo duque de Hastings, no quiere saber nada de la vida social de Londres ni, desde luego, de los intentos de las elegantes damas de "cazarlo" como marido para sus hijas. Cuando conoce a Daphne, cree haber encontrado el plan perfecto: un compromiso ficticio que mantenga alejadas a las pretendientes que lo agobian. Y cuando la atracción fingida comienza a convertirse en algo demasiado real, Simon deberá enfrentarse a los fantasmas del pasado que le impiden disfrutar la felicidad que el destino pone al alcance de su mano.
