Sir Phillip and Eloise’s correspondence only began after his wife passed away and Eloise sent her condolences since his wife was her cousin. Julia Quinn is great at inserting humor into these books while still touching on some harder subjects. But, it was fun to see Sir Phillip’s surprise when Eloise showed up at his doorstep. While this visit wasn’t unprompted - after a year of letter correspondence Sir Phillip did invite her to meet him in person to see if she wanted to be his wife - it was unexpected as she didn’t even send him word she was coming. She leaves London, without telling anyone, to visit Sir Phillip at his home in Gloucester, which is a decent way away from the Ton society. This entire story hinges on an impulse move she makes one night. I was excited to read more of Eloise’s story after the brief glimpse we got from Colin’s book.Įloise is a tenacious woman who can be quite impulsive at times. The last book set us up for Eloise’s story and it was interesting how this one flowed from the previous Bridgerton book. This was such an enjoyable and easy weekend read for me. Another Bridgerton book, another breeze of a story to get through.
