If you loved Netflix's Bridgerton, it's time to read the original source material.
The Duke and I by Julia Quinn is set in 1813 Regency era London centering on the aristocratic Bridgerton family. To free himself from the town′s marriage-minded mothers, irresistible Duke of Hastings Simon Basset pretends to be engaged to Daphne Bridgerton. But with time, Daphne forgets that their courtship is a complete sham, and has to now keep herself from falling for the handsome duke who has sworn off marriage forever.
“Julia Quinn is truly our contemporary Jane Austen,” says Jill Barnett, award-winning author of The Heart's Haven.
Quinn’s novel was No. 1 on the New York Times Fiction Best Seller list for the week of Jan. 17. Here were some other books on the list:
- The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett
- Hush-Hush by Stuart Woods
- The Law of Innocence by Michael Connelly
- A Time for Mercy by John Grisham
- Anxious People by Fredrik Backman
