ELOISE’S STORY
Sir Phillip, a moody widower, knew that Eloise Bridgerton was a spinster, and so he’d proposed, figuring that she’d be homely and unassuming, and more than a little desperate for an offer of marriage. Except . . . she wasn’t. The beautiful woman on his doorstep was anything but quiet, and when she stopped talking long enough to close her mouth, all he wanted to do was kiss her . . . and more.
Did he think she was mad? Eloise Bridgerton couldn’t marry a man she had never met. But then she started thinking . . . and wondering . . . and before she knew it, she was in a hired carriage in the middle of the night, on her way to meet the man she hoped might be her perfect match in this delightful Regency romance. Except . . . he wasn’t. Her perfect husband wouldn’t be such a grumpy hero, and while Phillip was certainly handsome, he was a large brute of a man, rough and rugged, and totally unlike the London gentlemen vying for her hand. But when he smiled . . . and when he kissed her . . . the rest of the world simply fell away, and she couldn’t help but wonder . . . could this imperfect man be perfect for her?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A little bit of mystery can make a love story even more exciting, and this installment in Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton series takes that to the next level. The impressively intellectual Phillip has been wounded by the death of his wife. But during his grieving, he develops feelings for the ever-upbeat Eloise Bridgerton as they write letters back and forth. For her part, Eloise needs to figure out if it’s really love, or if she’s just enchanted by the charming mystery man’s correspondence. The letter-writing creates a captivating tension between Phillip’s beguiling words and his morose real-life self. The story is made all the more engaging by Quinn’s relatable characters. They may have seemingly charmed lives, but, just like us, Phillip and Eloise have flaws and make questionable decisions—and they know it. No matter if you’re a longtime Bridgerton fan or new to this extravagant world, the giddy, passionate energy of To Sir Phillip, With Love will put you in the mood for romance.
Customer Reviews
Very good!
Eloise is so empowered, but also really romantic. She wants the whole package and isn’t willing to settle.
Surprisingly delightful
I wasn’t sure going into this story of Eloise that I would enjoy this book, especially after watching the Netflix season one. I thought it wouldn’t be possible to picture Eloise the character in the show to Eloise in the book. Don’t hesitate, you’ll love it!
Fave!
One of my favorite novels so far!
