The Girl with the Make-Believe Husband
by Julia Quinn
This was such a cute book! I think this may be one of my new favorites of the Bridgerton world!
This novel had so much heart and joy. Of all the Julia Quinn books I’ve read, this one felt the most realistic, from the love to the grief to the sex to the mental health descriptions. I can definitely see the progression of her writing and storytelling abilities. The characters were lovely and relatable. The storyline brought forth so much emotion. The pieces came together so well in the end, and the timeline felt ideal (many times, novels feel very rushed at the end, but not so with this book).
After reading the first prequel Bridgerton book and getting a description of Edward, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Honestly though, he was so much better than he was described! I really liked him, and I really liked his and Cecelia’s love. I appreciated the sensible and compassionate attitudes they both had. I felt like I knew and understood them. I was rooting for them!
I’m going to miss Edward and Cecelia. Looking forward to more Rokesby love stories!
