Note: TV tie-in A Bridgerton prequel Originally published: New York: Avon Books, 2020 Georgiana Bridgerton isn't against the idea of marriage. She'd just thought she'd have some say in the matter. But with her reputation hanging by a thread after she's abducted for her dowry, Georgie is given two options: live out her life as a spinster or marry the rogue who has ruined her life. As the fourth son of an earl, Nicholas Rokesby is prepared to chart his own course. He has a life in Edinburgh, where he's close to completing his medical studies, and he has no time - or interest - to find a wife. But when he discovers that Georgie Bridgerton - his literal girl-next-door - is facing ruin, he knows what he must do. It might not have been the most romantic of proposals, but Nicholas never thought she'd say no. Georgie doesn't want to be anyone's sacrifice, and besides, they could never think of each other as anything more than childhood friends, could they?

Note: TV tie-in "A Bridgerton prequel"--Front cover and spine Originally published: New York: Avon Books, 2018 Fiercely independent and adventurous, Poppy Bridgerton will only wed a suitor whose keen intellect and interests match her own. Sadly, none of the fools from her London season qualify. While visiting a friend on the Dorset coast, Poppy is pleasantly surprised to discover a smugglers' hideaway tucked inside a cave. But her delight turns to dismay when two pirates kidnap her and take her aboard a ship, leaving her bound and gagged on the captain's bed. Known to society as a rascal and reckless privateer, Captain Andrew James Rokesby actually transports essential goods and documents for the British government. Setting sail on a time-sensitive voyage to Portugal, he's stunned to find a woman waiting for him in his cabin. Surely, his imagination is getting the better of him. But no, she is very real - and his duty to the Crown means he's stuck with her. Can two wrongs make the most perfect right?

Note: TV tie-in Originally published: New York: Avon, 2013 Once upon a time, a historical romance author created a family. But not just any family. Eight brothers and sisters, assorted in-laws, sons and daughters, nieces and nephews (not to mention an overweight corgi) plus an irrepressible matriarch who's a match for any of them. These are the Bridgertons: less a family than a force of nature. Through eight novels, readers laughed, cried, and fell in love. But they wanted more. And so the readers asked the author - what happens next? Now Julia Quinn delivers eight sexy, funny, and heartwarming epilogues plus a bonus story about none other than the wise and witty matriarch Violet Bridgerton herself.
