38. Highway of Regret

Tensions at Aubrey Hall are HIGH, friends, and this episode is not going to make things any easier. After a few days of getting to know each other in quieter surrounds, the Bridgertons and Sharmas are about to be joined by the rest of the ton, as everyone takes to the country for Lady Bridgerton’s Heart and Flowers ball. There are certainly flowers and hearts, though the latter aren’t always beating in the right direction. We have not one but two surprise proposals leading to what will surely be bright futures - and one relationship that hasn’t quite been left in the past… Featuring: - Edwina’s really very questionable, quite unhinged, super nonsensical plan - Main character energy: who wants it, who has it - Practicalities: who wants them, who has them - Privilege: who wants it, who has it - Forgiveness: who wants it, who has it, who really doesn’t need it - Attention: who wants it, who has it - Money: who wants it, who has it - Ethics: who wants them, who has them - Control: who wants it, who has it - Good advice: who gives it, who ignores it Here are is the media we talk about in this episode: - The Viscount Who Loved Me, a novel by Julia Quinn - Bridgerton S1 & 2 - To Sir Phillip, With Love, a novel by Julia Quinn - Miss Scarlet and the Duke, the TV series This episode’s What Would Danbury Do letter comes from Ava, from Ana Huang’s Twisted Love.
