About this listen

Return to the world of the Bridgertons....

Before the Rokesbys, there were the Bridgertons.

Go back to where it all began in this dazzlingly witty new series from New York Times best-selling Author Julia Quinn.

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 neighbours 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 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 humour....

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.

A true Bridgerton epic

Somewhat spoiled by the narration in my view. The female narration was unable to convey a male voice, when needed and this somewhat spoiled the book for me. I think it would be better read as a book rather than narrated or a combination of male and female were needed

Captivating Prologue

Thoroughly enjoyed it, just wished it had two epilogues so I could know if they had children, etc 😁

Great book, great story , brilliantly read aloud

I really liked this story, much better read aloud than read myself. Brilliantly read aloud too, easy listening. The changing of the voice for each character, done so well. I've heard all bridgerton books aloud so carried on with this series.. well done.

Very Absorbing Listening.

I thoroughly enjoyed this audible book. Compelling listening, the story intrigues and yet one knows the ending will be what we want it to be, but on the way the writing of this book is amazing. I get so absorbed into these audible books, I cannot get enough of them.
Great listening.
