‿̩͙⊱༒︎ 𝔐𝔞𝔯𝔯𝔦𝔞𝔤𝔢 𝔖𝔢𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 ༒︎⊰‿̩͙ Marriage season had scarcely begun when Anthony Bridgerton-never a man of restraint-decided to detonate the evening. "You should marry Daphne." Cassius Sinclair starred. "I beg your pardon?" "She's of age. You remain unmarried. It would be the sensible match." "Absolutely not." Cassius laughed once, sharp and incredulous. "You know I've had my eye on Eloise for some time now." Silence. "I know," Anthony said calmly. "And yet you persist," Cassius replied dryly. Anthony met his gaze. "Precisely." "NO!" This, at least, Anthony seemed to understand. ｡ ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ ｡ Cassius is everything society adores-a polished duke, a bachelor, devastatingly charming, impeccably composed. Only those closest to him know the truth, the chaos he hides beneath the civility. London expects Cassius to choose a bride. Preferably sensible. Preferably obedient. Unfortunately, he's in love with Eloise Bridgerton- the one woman who refuses to be either. He is charm wrapped in danger. She is defiance dressed as wit. As marriage season closes in and rules tighten, one question threatens to ruin everything: What happens when desire refuses to behave?

Everyone in the ton knows the stories, whispers of pale creatures haunting the woods beyond Mayfair. Vampires, they call them. Beautiful, dangerous, and smart enough to keep their fangs far from polite society. No one dares to wander into the trees after dark. No one, except Eloise Bridgerton. Fed up with her family's endless talk of marriage and propriety, Eloise flees a tedious ball one moonlit night, desperate for a breath of freedom. But what she finds instead is a nightmare come to life-and a secret that could upend the delicate world of the ton. In the shadows of the woods, she sees him: Alaric Sinclair, the Duke of Ravenshire. Admired, wealthy, impossibly charming... and very much not human. Now that she's seen what he truly is, Alaric has no choice but to ensure she keeps his secret, even if it means binding her to him in ways neither of them can resist. Eloise Bridgerton has always been drawn to trouble. But this time, trouble might want to taste her.

When the fiercely independent Eloise Bridgerton finally makes her long-delayed debut into society, the ton waits with bated breath to see which suitor will dare attempt to win her heart. But Eloise has made one thing abundantly clear-she has no interest in marriage, courtship, or any of the pomp that comes with it. Enter Viscount Cedric Lancaster: a charming, scandalous rake with a reputation as dazzling as his smile. Bored by the Season's predictability, Cedric and his equally rakish friends make a wager-he must accomplish the impossible: swoon Miss Bridgerton. But what begins as a game quickly becomes far more complicated. Cedric didn't count on Eloise's wit, her fire, or the way she sees through his carefully crafted mask. And to make matters worse, her fiercely protective brother Anthony Bridgerton will stop at nothing to keep men like Cedric far from his sister. As Cedric finds himself tangled in a web of banter, desire, and unexpected affection, he must decide if he's still playing the game-or if he's already lost his heart. Because the greatest scandal of all? Falling truly, deeply in love.
