152. An Offer From A Gentleman by Julia Quinn (Part 1) "Hand-shoes and the dong."

Julia Quinn can be relied upon to provide a safe, hallmark-worthy intro to historical romance. Just enough background and history to keep you immersed in the world without drowning you in the minutiae of how day-to-day life in the 1800s. Sophie and Benedict's story is our favorite of the Bridgerton novels for it's pacing but we're missing the angst of Lisa Kelypas' couples. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9408584-an-offer-from-a-gentleman?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_23 Similar BooksStranger In My Arms by Lisa Kleypashttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/243206.Stranger_in_My_ArmsHow the Marquess Was Won by Julie Anne Longhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11388053-how-the-marquess-was-wonCinder by Marissa Meyerhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36381037-cinder?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=dk3GNqSb4V&rank=1The Sweetest Oblivion by Danielle Lorihttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39083635-the-sweetest-oblivion?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=z8SdN5n2PC&rank=1Rose in Chains by Julie Sotohttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/221179254-rose-in-chains?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=Y4KtfYlxz7&rank=1Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levinehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/218038285-ella-enchanted?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=m2sxMzF7ZQ&rank=1Check us out on Youtube and Patreon @notanotherheroine
