  <default-description>Sir Phillip knew that Eloise Bridgerton was a spinster, and so he'd proposed, figuring that she'd be homely and unassuming, and more than a little desperate for an offer of marriage. Except . . . she wasn't. The beautiful woman on his doorstep was anything but quiet, and when she stopped talking long enough to close her mouth, all he wanted to do was kiss her . . . and more.

Did he think she was mad? Eloise Bridgerton couldn't marry a man she had never met! But then she started thinking . . . and wondering . . . and before she knew it, she was in a hired carriage in the middle of the night, on her way to meet the man she hoped might be her perfect match. Except . . . he wasn't. Her perfect husband wouldn't be so moody and ill-mannered, and while Phillip was certainly handsome, he was a large brute of a man, rough and rugged, and totally unlike the London gentlemen vying for her hand. But when he smiled . . . and when he kissed her . . . the rest of the world simply fell away, and she couldn't help but wonder . . . could this imperfect man be perfect for her?</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed this book immensely.  One of my favorite in this series.<br/>I really enjoyed this series especially to see the repeat characters as the stories progressed.  Predictable but not overly &quot;repeated&quot; themes that you might see in some series.  Where the same thing happens to the main...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66629231">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thoroughly enjoyed Eloise's story in the Bridgertons series.  I'm definitely enjoying the books where the sisters find their love matches moreso than their brothers' stories.  In both the Duke and I (Daphne's story) and TSPWL, the Bridgerton brothers find themselves defending their sisters &quot;h...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74532418">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I like The Bridgerton series because you can really feel the love Ms. Quinn has for her characters. However, I admit I'm not a fan of her  sex scenes, and the conflicts always feel so contrived (did ANYONE have a good father in the regency period? Geez). Still, good read as long as you don't think a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39511319">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is my second time reading &quot;To Sir Phillip, with Love&quot; and I loved it as much now as I did the first time. Julia Quinn has an engaging, if uncomplicated style of writing that entertains and keeps the reader going from the beggining until the end. I think she will remain one of my favor...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38748260">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thought this made for a decently romantic read. I enjoyed the &quot;snippets&quot; of Eloise's letters at the beginning of each chapter and I, like many other readers, thought the &quot;rescue&quot; scene was one of the best. I also enjoyed the way the children were used...their scenes with Eloise...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25569775">more...</a>]]></body>
