Witty, daring and with a secret knack for painting Frances Granville arrives at London with two convictions: one, that she is not interested in men, especially not in lords who parade impeccably around courting innocent young ladies at balls only to close their nights in brothels. Two, that if she does not secure a husband, her father will make a match with someone at least twice her age and half her wits. Franny navigates the courting season, her loving and quaint family and her attraction to a certain Bridgerton brother with a charming smile while she finds her own definition of what it means to be a woman in the Regency era.

Always, Forever || Colin Bridgerton
LADY ELIZABETH DEVENTON enters her third season with two refused proposals behind her and the scrutiny of the ton firmly upon her. Beautiful, accomplished and sister to a royal duchess, she has every reason to expect an exceptional match. There is only one problem. For most of her life, Elizabeth has been in love with her closest friend. COLIN BRIDGERTON has always dreamed of distant horizons. Restless, charming and determined to discover his purpose, he believes marriage may offer the direction he has been searching for. But the woman who captures his attention is not the one who has spent years quietly loving him. Colin and Elizabeth have shared everything since childhood: summers at Aubrey Hall, secrets whispered beside the Deventon pianoforte and dreams of the lives they might one day lead. To Colin, Elizabeth has always been his dearest friend-the one person he trusts will remain beside him, no matter where his ambitions take him. But Elizabeth can no longer build her future around the hope that he might eventually see her. The season of 1813 will force Colin and Elizabeth to confront the truth they have avoided for years: Some promises are easy to make in childhood. Keeping them may require the courage to let each other go. A Bridgerton Love Story (Colin Bridgerton × Female OC)

**Dearest Readers,** My quills have been sharpened in eager anticipation of the 1815 season, and I daresay it shall prove as thrilling as any before it. New faces grace our glittering ballrooms - most notably the daughters of the Earl of Somerset, presented to society for the very first time. Yours truly, **Lady Whistledown's Society Papers** ~ The Earl's daughters are opposites in every regard. Lady Marie, the younger, is softness and sweetness itself, earning the coveted title of Diamond of the Season. Her beauty and gentle charm quickly capture the admiration of Mr. Benedict Bridgerton, who appears every inch the attentive suitor. Yet it is her elder sister, Lady Esther - sharp-witted, bold, and far less inclined toward obedience - who truly unsettles him. With their father quietly pressing for a match to secure his own hidden interests, what begins as a season of promise soon becomes a matter of urgency. And when fate intervenes, it is not the sister meant to be chosen who must secure a husband before the final dance. For in matters of the heart, dear reader, desire rarely follows expectation.Complete
