Elizabeth Del Rey known as Beth to those closest to her has always been impossible to ignore, especially by Benedict Bridgerton. Raised side by side thanks to the close friendship between Violet Bridgerton and Oliva Del Rey, the Bridgertons and the Del Reys have been intertwined for as long as either family can remember. Their children grew up together, forming bonds that felt unbreakable.Particularly between Elizabeth and Benedict.
As the new season approaches, Elizabeth knows society expects her to do what every young lady must: marry well. Yet she has never seen herself following that path. Outspoken, educated, and fluent in English, French, and Spanish, Elizabeth dreams of becoming a writer in a world that values diamonds more than words. Labeled a "rebel" by society, she is admired by some and judged by many but she refuses to quiet herself for anyone.
Benedict Bridgerton, the second eldest son, has always seen the world differently. Creative, thoughtful, and unconcerned with society's rigid expectations, he understands Elizabeth in a way few others do. Their friendship has always been effortless but feelings have a way of changing things.
Can two best friends learn to see each other as more?
And if they do, will Elizabeth be willing to risk everything she believes in for love?
