Sometimes you find love in the most unexpected places . . . This is not one of those times. Everyone expects Billie Bridgerton to marry one of the Rokesby brothers. The two families have been neighbors for centuries, and as a child the tomboyish Billie ran wild with Edward and Andrew. Either one would make a perfect husband . . . someday. Sometimes you fall in love with exactly the person you think you should . . . Or not. There is only one Rokesby Billie absolutely cannot tolerate, and that is George. He may be the eldest and heir to the earldom, but he’s arrogant, annoying, and she’s absolutely certain he detests her. Which is perfectly convenient, as she can’t stand the sight of him, either. But sometimes fate has a wicked sense of humor . . . Because when Billie and George are quite literally thrown together, a whole new sort of sparks begins to fly. And when these lifelong adversaries finally kiss, they just might discover that the one person they can’t abide is the one person they can’t live without . . . Praise for Julia Quinn “Smart, funny.”—Time Magazine “Delightful.” —Nora Roberts “Julia Quinn is truly our contemporary Jane Austen.”—Jill Barnett “Quinn is a consummate storyteller. Her prose is spry and assured, and she excels at creating indelible characters.”—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) “Quinn is known for her witty charm . . . . She’s also a romance master, able to set up realistic obstacles that tug at the heartstrings while keeping the hero and heroine believably apart. With the Bridgertons, Quinn has created a family so likable and attractive, a community so vibrant and engaging, that we want to crawl into the pages and know them.”—NPR Books “Simply delightful, filled with charm, humor, and wit.”—Kirkus Reviews “If you’ve never read romance novels, start here.”—Washington Post
