Aside from the obvious plot holes in this book, the last 20% are just a bit much... But if you ignore that and also some toxic masculinity it's a fun book. Liked some banter between the characters.

This has been my favorite Bridgerton book so far! It truly felt like reading a fairytale…as Benedict and Sophie’s story has a strong similarity to one of my favorite princesses - Cinderella! I so enjoyed this story. There were times when Benedict’s behavior was less than admirable, which is why I’ve chosen to give only 4.75 stars. While book two began to dive into other characters within the Bridgerton universe, this book truly solidified the feeling of the books being a series and not just standalone books existing in the same universe. Scenes throughout the book helped to introduce what could be expected from other books down the line, while still having the love story between Benedict and Sophie be the MAIN focus of the book. I enjoyed getting some of the side stories as well though, while still feeling fully immersed in the main story. The story was truly beautiful and I enjoyed it so!

 I rated it 4 stars, then i thought about it some more and lowered it to 3.
I’m willing to own the fact that the show has gotten me a little twisted from the books, but Benedict really frustrated me in this book.
Sophie i loved, truly. Her muttering wit, her resilience, her heart all shine from the first page to the last. (Plus, i love a girl with a solid right hook!!)
Seeing her get the literal cinderella treatment was fun and engaging, and all of her apprehensions regarding Benedict make perfect sense.
The problem here is that Sophie makes her stance abundantly clear, and Benedict quite literally kidnaps and blackmails her because he can’t take no for an answer. Where is my gentle and kind artist?? I can’t imagine that Violet would have been happy with him had she known the truth of their story either, she raised him better than that. Instead he acts like such a spoiled brat any time Sophie tells him no, to the point that she literally has to run away from him multiple times.
I’m glad they’re happy by the end of it, but good lord, I wanted to get a few punches in myself with the way Benedict acted.
