This was definitely my second favorite book by Julia Quinn. Slightly Dangerous being my first. I was so intrigued the moment I started reading it, I was unable to put it down. I have read many books but only a couple that start out with the man being in love with the woman first. I found it very passionate and I was I was in tears at the end, especially the last line of the epilogue. I would recommend this book to any romance fan.

A lovely unrequited love edition of the Bridgerton saga. Maybe a bit too much angst, but Francesca and Michael are wonderful together.

I love Julia Quinn and think her characters are some of the most engaging in romantic fiction. That said, this book got a little tiresome after a while. Just a little too much "I must be noble and not lust after my cousin's wife". I just wanted them to get over it. Still better than most romances out there.

Really good installment of the Brigerton saga. Michael Stirling falls in love with Francesca Bridgerton upon their first meeting which is great, except that he meets her at her engagement party to his cousin!

This is a great read and is in equal parts funny and touching. Each of the eight Bridgerton sibs have a story and each one is better than the last.

IN EVERY LIFE there is a truning point A momnent so tremendous, so sharp and breathtaking, that one knows one's life will never be the same. For Michail Stirling, London's most infamouse rake, that moment came the first time he laid eyes on Francesca Bridgerton.

After a lifeime of chasing women, of smiling slyly as they chased him, of allowing himsilf to be cvaugt but never permitting his heart to become engaged, he took one look at Grancesca Bridgerton and fell so fast and had into love it was a wonder he managed to remain standing. Unfortunately for Michael, however, Grancesca's surname was to remain Bridegerton for only a mere th36 hours longer-the occasion of their meeting was, lamentably, a supper celebrating her imminent wedding to his cousin.

But that was then, NOW Michael and Francesca is free, but still she thinks of him as nothing other than her dear freind and confident. Michail dares not speak to her of his love, until one danferous night, when she steps innocently ont his arms and passion proves stronger than even the most wicked secrets. okay sort of.
