Krátky popis
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 . . .
