Yet, the second born Bridgerton, Benedict Bridgerton falls hopelessly in love with her.

After her mothers death when Elizabeth Swann was only eight, it changes her fathers trajectory where he wants to keep her in his life as long as he can rather then sending her out to society to marry a man just because society deems that she has to. So when she comes of age to be debuted to society, he lets every man that even looks, speaks or dances with his daughter that they are not good enough for her and never will be, scaring each and every suitor off. But he's not the only one who has that tactic for their family friend Anthony Bridgerton, who even though he was the oldest of his family had still yet to marry and on top of finding the perfect suitor for his sister, he finds his eyes being drawn to Elizabeth, seeing not only her kind heart but how beautiful of a young woman she had become. Turning every suitor away that looked at her the way that he unknowingly was, feeling himself going mad with how much she was consuming him.

Dear readers, There is a ton of buzz as the arrival of the Russian royal family enters England, the long-reigning royalty Vladimirs, joins us this season. It is without a doubt no surprise why the Queen has crowned the youngest and only daughter of late King Vilard Sr. and Queen Lilith Saint Valdimir this season's diamond. Her beauty is undeniable and her grace is undoubtedly one to light up a room. Princess Victoria has four older brothers who are just as smashing as she is. Queen Lilith is an English native moving from Spain at a very small age. Her daughter is by far her spitting image, without a father we have just gotten news that all four of her brothers are the ones to get the approval of Princess Victoria's hand. Of course for the beautiful Princess that should be easy...right? Let the trials begin! Sincerely, Lady Whistledown

The tale of Her Majesty The Queen Dowager of Württemberg unfolds not as a fairy-tale love story with a happily ever after but as a narrative of growth and resilience. Returning to London with her youngest children after her husband's demise, she steps back into the swirl of the 1813 social season. Life demanded many sacrifices from Charlotte, but none weighed as heavily as the sacrifice of her enduring love, especially for one man-a particular Viscount. Thirteen years after burying the echoes of their first love, fate orchestrates a poignant reunion between Charlotte and the Viscount, Anthony Bridgerton. What they believed to be entombed emotions rise to the surface with each encounter, proving that some feelings, no matter how deeply buried, refuse to remain silent. Love crashes onto their souls once again, defying the passage of time and stirring the embers of a connection they thought had long faded away. The 1813 social season will definitely be as unexpected as it will be beautiful and scandalous. Lady Whistledown shall have to purchase more ink... Disclaimer: All original rights and credits of this amazing series goes to its creators. And of course, the original creator of all characters and books, Julia Quinn and to Chris Van Duden, the creator/showrunner/executive producer of the Netflix Original Series: Bridgerton. The only new/added characters are Princess Charlotte, etc, and its ideas belong to me.

He was the ninth Viscount Bridgerton and also a former "capital R rake." She was the thirteenth surviving child of King George III of Great Britain and Ireland and Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. She also happened to be a shelter princess. They seemed like an unlikely match... to most. Will she become his love match that he did not want at first? Or will she become the bane of his existence... and the object of all his desires?

Born from a forbidden love and raised under the watchful eye of royalty, Lilliana-the Queen's dazzling niece-was never meant to be ordinary. She speaks the harsh truth, walks with purpose, and keeps her heart guarded behind a thousand secrets. When she crosses paths with the charming big brother of her new friend, Lilliana finds herself entangled in a dangerous game. Anthony Bridgerton: sharp-tongued, stubborn, and impossible to ignore. What begins as a battle of wit and will, quickly turns into something more -a slow-burning tension that threatens to unravel them both. The next question lingers in the air, heavy with intrigue and possibility-Can love truly flourish this season? Only time shall tell, dear readers, and I think that even the most guarded hearts cannot escape the heave of fate.

Oh, how exciting a new season can be. Every noble family, coming back to London in hopes that their children's introduction to the society will be crowned by nothing but success, notoriety and, of course, a lavish wedding. It would be an understatement for this author to say that it is my favorite time of the year. Same can surely be said about the Queen Charlotte herself, who is rumored to be sponsoring none other than her own niece, freshly arrived from America. Let's hope for her majesty, that her new protégée, will be at the height imposed by her royal sponsor. It will be my pleasure, as always, to keep an eye on that surprising new contestant...

Lady Aurelia Augusta-youngest daughter of Queen Charlotte and King George III-was hidden from the ton for much of her life. Quiet, brilliant, and prone to episodes that echo her father's affliction, Aurelia was sent to Italy and France to "take the air" and live a more tranquil life. Now, at the Queen's command, she returns to London for the Season-not to find a match, but to prove to the world (and the court) that she is not a fragile shadow of her father. Enter Viscount Anthony Bridgerton: brooding, burdened by duty, and uninterested in courtly displays. The last thing he expects is to be intrigued by the Queen's reclusive daughter-gentle, observant, and full of quiet fire. Their connection is anything but simple, especially with whispers about Aurelia's "delicate mind" and Anthony's reputation as the rake hell viscount. But love does not bloom in safety-and a garden never grows without weathering storms.
