I very specifically told you to stay away from Ned Blydon.””I chose not to follow your advice. Ned is a very nice person. Handsome, personable—a perfect escort.””That is precisely why I wanted you to keep...

And, she was able to tell herself with some satisfaction, the man in question – one Colin Bridgerton – felt precisely the same way……..His earth shook, his heart leaped, and Penelope knew without a doubt...

No one knows as well as I how much nonsense is printed in books.

No words for the passion. No words for the need.No words for the sheer epiphany of the moment.And so, on an otherwise unremarkable Friday afternoon, in the heart of Mayfair, in a quiet drawing room...

I love you with everything I am, everything I’ve been, and everything I hope to be. I love you with my past, and I love you for my future. I love you for the children...

It’s only through sheer force and luck that she’s yet to take over the world.

At present, however, with his aching head and queasy stomach, Sebastian was feeling exceedingly resistible. Or if not that, then resistant. Aphrodite herself could descend from the ceiling, floating on a bloody clamshell, naked but...

And if you say that’s because you lot barged into her home like a herd of mentally deficient sheep, I’m disowning all three of you.

you’ll be a danger to the ladies soon.”Harry very nearly rolled his eyes. Sebastian had already made conquests of nearly all the girls in the village near Hesslewhite. He must give off some sort of...

You don’t have to kiss a lot of frogs to recognize a prince when you find one.”-Henrietta Barrett, (Minx, Splendid Trilogy book #3)

Don’t ruin it. The moment is too rare.

I don’t believe I’ve ever ingested anything quite so ancient,” Gareth murmured.

Love works in mysterious ways,

It suddenly made sense. Only twice in his life had he felt this inexplicable, almost mystical attraction to a woman. He’d thought it remarkable, to have found two, when in his heart he’d always believed...

There were rules among friends, commandments, really, and the most important one was Thou Shalt Not Lust After Thy Friend’s Sister.

Sebastian got up and walked to the window, resting his forehead against the pane. It was cold outside, and the icy chill pressed up against him through the glass. He liked the sensation. It was...

You don’t always have to kiss a lot of frogs to recognize a prince when you find one -Henrietta Barett

Perriwickturned to Penelope as he set the tray down on a table. “If I might be so bold, my lady-“”Perriwick!” Blake roared. “If I hear the phrase ‘if I might be so bold’ one more...

It was those eyes as much as anything that had earned him his reputation as a man to be reckoned with. When he stared at a person, clear and unwavering, men grew uncomfortable. Women positively...

Blake took a small roll from the tray on the table, then put it back in favor of a larger one. And maybe a little butter. It certainly couldn’t hurt. And jam…no, he drew the...

My mother is convinced that yellow is a happy color and that a happy girl would get a husband.-Penelope Featherington

Not that I knew who you were until last month. But now that I’ve got you, I’m not letting you go.””You’re not?”Blake stared at her in irritated confusion. What was her game? “Do you think...

Suddenly it was too hard to be in his presence, too painful to know that he would belong to someone else.

Watch over Honoria, will you? See that she doesn’t marry an idiot.

She was in big trouble now.”You stupid man,” she said to the body on the floor. “Why did you have to lunge at me like that? Why couldn’t you have left well enough alone? I...

There is a noticeable lack of dialogue,” Sebastian confirmed.

She tried to remind herself that beauty was only skin deep, but that didn’t offer any helpful excuses when she was berating herself for never knowing what to say to people. There was nothing more...

But Hyacinth Bridgerton, who at ten should have known the least about kisses of anyone, just blinked thoughtfully, and said, ” I think it’s nice. If they’re laughing now, they’ll probably be laughing forever.

This has to be the most self-centered thing I’ve ever said, but no, I think you just wanted to vex me.

Michael nodded tersely, eyeing a table across the room. It was empty. So empty. So joyfully, blessedly empty.He could picture himself a very happy man at that table.”Not feeling very conversational this evening, are we?”...

He smiled, and suddenly she knew that his words were true. Everything would be all right. Maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow, but soon. Tragedy couldn’t coexist in a world with one of Colin’s...

She had been born for this man, and she had spent so many years trying to accept the fact that he had been born for someone else…

I suppose he’s a bit young,” he said.

Turner let his face fell into his hands. “I’m never going to touch her again”, he moaned. “He’s never going to touch me again!” they heard Miranda roar.”Well,it doesn’t look like you’ll have much argument...

You always get more respect when you don’t have a happy ending.

Elizabeth, you resemble nothing so much as a hen trying to hatch a book.

I don’t know why people persist in believing women are inferior, when it is quite clear that men are the more feeble-minded of the two.

He loved her.He wanted her.He needed her.And he needed her now.

Watch over Honoria, will you? See she doesn’t marry an idiot. (Daniel Smythe-Smith)

She hated that she was still so desperate for a glimpse of him, but it had been this way for years.

You have to live each hour as if it’s your last and each day as if you were immortal. – Kate Sheffield

Anthony Bridgerton hátradőlt bőr karosszékében, elgondolkodva kortyolta a whiskyt; lötykölte, körbe áramoltatta a pohárban, majd megszólalt: – Arra gondoltam, hogy megnősülök.Benedict Bridgerton, aki éppen azon szokását gyakorolta, amit anyja annyira megvetett, nevezetesen székét két hátsó...

he is your special friend.

I can’t imagine a romance novel published today where the hero rapes the heroine and she falls in love with him.

Did you know I dream about your hair? I use to say it was the color of the sun at sunset, but I’m wrong. It’s brighter than the sun, just as you are.

No,” he said hoarsely, “the chair will do just fine, thank you.””If I know you are uncomfortable, I shan’t be able to sleep.” She sounded remarkably like a damsel in distress.Dunford shuddered. He had never...

Anthony Bridgerton leaned back in his leather chair,and then announced, “I’m thinking about getting married.”Benedict Bridgerton, who had been indulging in a habit his mother detested—tipping his chair drunkenly on the back two legs—fell over.Colin...

Seven.” Switch to eight, and the majority of humanity was lost.
