Simon Basset, the irresistible Duke of Hastings, has hatched a plan to keep himself free from the town′s marriage-minded society mothers. He pretends to be engaged to the lovely Daphne Bridgerton. After all, it isn′t as if the brooding rogue has any real plans to marry - though there is something about the alluring Miss Bridgerton that sets Simon′s heart beating a bit faster. And as for Daphne, surely the clever debutante will attract some very worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable. But as Daphne waltzes across ballroom after ballroom with Simon, she soon forgets that their courtship is a complete sham. And now she has to do the impossible and keep herself from losing her heart and soul completely to the handsome hell-raiser who has sworn off marriage forever!

OK let's talk about this one and I got to be honest, I read this because of... drum rolls... you guessed NETFLIX, so, I watched the first two episode of the series and I got exited then proceeded to buy the ebook for my Kindle and started reading right away.
The book has a good start but it rapidly became (in my humble opinion) extremely predictable and repetitive, the plot circles around all the way to the end, I may also say that the book presents quite a lot of romance clichés, also did not find any of the characters relatable; to top that we have the famous SCENE, yes dear reader you know what I'm talking about. Therefore, I give it one-star rating.

Muy bien, hablemos de este libro, seré completamente honesta, lo leí porque...redobles de tambores ... adivinaste ¡la serie de NETFLIX!, vi los dos primeros episodios de la serie, me emocioné y luego procedí a comprar el libro electrónico para mi Kindle e inmediatamente comencé a leer.
El libro tiene un buen comienzo, pero rápidamente se volvió (en mi humilde opinión) extremadamente predecible y repetitivo, la trama da vueltas y vueltas hasta que llegas al final del libro, también puedo decir que el libro presenta bastantes clichés románticos y en mi caso particular no me fue posible identificarme o simplemente simpatizar con ninguno de los personajes y como cereza del pastel tenemos la famosa ESCENA, sí querido lector, tú sabes de que escena estoy hablando. Por lo tanto, le doy una calificación de una estrella.
