Lady Bridget Cavendish and her family have arrived in
London to
take their place in society, having inherited one of
England's
most respected dukedoms. But they will soon discover that
being
an American amongst the ton will not be easy, with rigid
gentlemen, such as Lord Darcy, irritated with their very
presence. Recording everything in her diary, Lady Bridget
tries
to find her way through the rules and etiquette expected of
an
English belle, and details her most scandalous secrets, and
episodes in her journal.
Lord Darcy is the epitome of the perfect English
gentleman—
rigid, stern, wealthy, titled, and impossibly proper in
every
aspect of his life. So he is shocked and disturbed when he
finds himself confronted with his new American neighbours.
Lady
Bridget is definitely not the English bride he needs, but
yet he cannot help but fall under her spell. But when Lady
Bridget's diary disappears, can he help her avoid scandal
and
condemnation? Or will it be too late?
LADY BRIDGET'S DIARY by Maya Rodale is the first novel in
the
Keeping Up with the Cavendishes series, and I
cannot
wait for the next instalment. Bridget is my favourite
character
as she is full of wit and charm, and I found myself hoping
she wouldn't change too much to fit into London society. It
was
a pleasure to watch Lord Darcy slowly thaw and allow
Bridget to breathe new life into him. With twists and
turns,
and an alternative look at the Regency world, LADY
BRIDGET'S
DIARY by Maya Rodale is an engrossing tale, and I highly
recommend it.
In the first novel of Maya Rodale's stunning new
series,
an American heiress must learn to navigate London society
and an infuriatingly irresistible rake . . .
Lord
Darcy is the quintessential Englishman: wealthy, titled,
impossibly proper, and horrified that a pack of Americans
has inherited one of England's most respected dukedoms. But
his manners, his infamous self-restraint, and his better
judgment fly out the window when he finds himself with the
maddening American girl next door.
Lady Bridget
Cavendish has grand—but thwarted—plans to become a Perfect
Lady and take the haute ton by storm. In her diary, Bridget
records her disastrous attempts to assimilate into London
high society, her adoration of the handsome rogue next
door,
her disdain for the Dreadful Lord Darcy, and some truly
scandalous secrets that could ruin them all.
It was
loathing at first sight for Lady Bridget and Lord Darcy.
But
their paths keep crossing . . . and somehow involve
kissing.
When Lady Bridget's diary goes missing, both Darcy and
Bridget must decide what matters most of all—a sterling
reputation or a perfectly imperfect love.
