Publisher Description
The third novel in the beloved Regency-set world of Julia Quinn's charming, powerful Bridgerton family, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. Welcome to Benedict's story . . .
Sophie Beckett never dreamt she would sneak into Lady Bridgerton's famed masquerade ball - or that 'Prince Charming' would be waiting there for her! Though the daughter of an earl, Sophie had been relegated to the role of servant by her disdainful stepmother. But that night, spinning in the strong arms of the debonair and devastatingly handsome Benedict Bridgerton, she felt like royalty. Yet she knows all enchantments must end.
But Sophie has reckoned without Benedict's determined heart: he has sworn to find and wed his mystery miss, for he knows this is his only chance for a fairy tale love . .

Customer Reviews
A great Cinderella retelling
Sophie is easily one of the most lovable characters in the Bridgerton series, with an inner struggle different to all other protagonists in the series, due to the commentary of the life of lower class women in the regency era. Benedict Bridgerton, whilst a well written character, has an inner struggle similar to other male protagonists in Julia Quinn’s portfolio, and those characters have more depth and complexity. Alongside this, his relentless pursuit of Sophie, inability to take ‘no’ for an answer or understand Sophie’s perspective for most of the story, makes him dislikable for several sections of this book. Despite this, the romance is still very well written and feels like a fairytale throughout.
Loved even if slightly Cinderella ish
