I've been re-reading and reviewing the Bridgerton Series. In this book, The Viscount Who Loved Me , we have Anthony Bridgerton, the eldest of eight siblings, and the title Viscount.

Anthony Bridgerton was devastated when his father suddenly died. He was utterly convinced that he could not surpass his father in any way, including age. However, after realising that he's not getting any younger, Anthony decides to marry and produce an heir. On the condition that she couldn't be anyone with whom he might fall in love, he sets his sights on the season's incomparable Edwina Sheffield. But the problem is, she would not marry without her sister Kate Sheffield's approval. Anthony decided that it would not be a problem. He believes that he can convince Kate.

But he never counted on Edwina's older sister to be hard-headed and infuriatingly alluring. She had made it clear that she didn't like him at all. As Anthony spends time in the company of the Sheffields, the more he realises he's drawn to Kate. He craves her body with an intensity that drives him crazy. Indeed, he can't be falling for her.

I did enjoy Kate and Anthony's story. They were such lovely characters. Julia Quinn knows how to write reform rakes and their romance counterparts as well.

Kate Sheffield is a strong, independent, and wonderful heroine. She's protective of those she loves. I loved her dry sense of humor and her frankness. No dancing around issues for Kate. I also enjoyed her relationship with her sister, Edwina. They have a very close relationship. Another thing I love about Kate is that she goes toe-to-toe with Anthony. She could put him in his place when need be. Anthony, I found his pain, grief, and fears very endearing because they make him a lovely brooding hero.

There's a definite chemistry between Kate and Anthony. They were perfect for each other. I love that they are devoted to their families and have a good, loving relationship with them. These two burned off the pages with their constant bickering, snappy remarks, and witty banter, and their interactions were just so good to read. It’s so much fun and so real.

Overall, The Viscount, who loves me, is a delightfully charming romance novel. An enjoyable story that will satisfy any romantic heart. ...more
