Once upon a time, a historical romance author created a family group .

But not simply any family. Eight siblings, assorted in-laws, sons and daughters, nieces and nephews (not to mention an overweight corgi) plus an irrepressible matriarch who’s a match for any of them . . . These are the Bridgertons: much less a family than a power of nature. Through eight bestselling books, readers laughed, cried, and fell in love. However they wanted more.

And so the readers asked the writer . . .

What happens next? Will Simon ever browse his father’s characters? Do Francesca and Michael become parents? Who win inside a Pall Mall grudge match?

Does “THE FINISH” really have to be the end?

Now, with The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After, Julia Quinn delivers eight sexy, funny, and heartwarming “2nd Epilogues” and also a reward story about none apart from the sensible and witty matriarch Violet Bridgerton herself. Therefore get to know the Bridgertons around again-because Gladly Ever After is usually a whole lot of fun.
