Publisher Description
Sometimes you find love in the most unexpected of 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...
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Like an episode of Downton Abbey mixed with a great rom-com, Because of Miss Bridgerton took us on a delightfully old-fashioned journey, narrated with poise (and knowing cheek) by British actor Rosalyn Landor. Impulsive and fun-loving, Billie Bridgerton can’t stand George Rokesby, the older brother of her best friends, Edward and Andrew, and the dutiful heir to his family’s fortunes. It’s not hard to see where Julia Quinn’s historical romance is headed—especially if you've seen the smash hit TV adaptation—but getting there is oh-so fun. Between the reluctant lovers’ banter and the domestic dramas that swirl around them, we devoured this audiobook in record time.
Customer Reviews
Mostly dialogue
More Barbara Cartland than Jane Austen. None of Austen’s sharp observations of human nature. Romantic novel with soft porn.
