The Viscount Who Loved Me (Bridgerton Series, Bk. 2)
Setting: Regency EnglandSensuality: 7Wise, lovely, and kind, Kate Sheffield is determined that her beautiful  half-sister, Edwina, marry a reputable man. Unfortunately for Kate, Viscount  Anthony Bridgerton--London's most eligible bachelor and a notorious rake to  boot--sets his sights on Edwina, and what the viscount wants, the viscount gets.Hardly a problem for the impossibly handsome viscount, that is until the  determined Kate, whose deep, dark eyes and lush mouth send his senses racing,  presents a challenge that Anthony cannot refuse. Worse yet, Kate's response to  his playful advances only confirms the ardent attraction that both seem  desperate to deny. Anthony is faced with a dilemma. On the one hand, the  perfectly amiable Edwina, while on the other, the most stubborn,  single-minded--yet confoundedly desirable--female ever to grace a London  ballroom. Anthony's quandary comes to a fast and fateful conclusion when he and  Kate are caught in an innocent but compromising position.It's no surprise that Julia Quinn's setting, characterization, and plot are  flawless. Add to this masterful mix deeper emotional issues offset by the  trademark Quinn wit, and you truly do have romance at it's best. Nobody does  Regency quite like the mighty Quinn.--Lois Faye Dyer
