Look. The Bridgerton books are no great literary wonders, but they are, at least to me, enjoyable romantic reads. I find all these books endearing love stories, I do always swoon when they declare their love for each other. I often use these books as pallet cleaners for after heavier reads. 
My only complaint is that I don’t love the light fat phobia in the second epilogue. And I dislike in Cinderella retellings where one of the step sisters has to be fat.
Though the character of Posy is darling, especially in the end
