“I’ve already instructed the

“Even Hyacinth?” Penelope asked doubtfully.
“Especially Hyacinth.”
“Did you bribe her?” Violet asked. “Because it won’t work unless you

“Isn't it nice to discover that we're not exactly what we thought we were?”
― Julia Quinn, Romancing Mister Bridgerton: The 2nd Epilogue

“Jack stopped cold. Where had THAT come from?
From your conscience, a niggling little voice - probably his conscience - told him.
Damn. He really needed to get a better night's sleep. His conscience was never this loud.”
