So this series was my gateway to Romanceladia! It all started with Netflix’s TV-adaption of “The Duke And I”, called Bridgeton released 12/25/20! The way some form of media hits me, is through the heart! Watching the show just made me feel happy 😄 The show pointed me to the books, and the rest is history 🤗😉
After that, I became engrossed by HR hut this series still remains a comfort read. Meaning, it ALWAYS makes me FEEL happy! I’ve already read it I don’t know 🤷🏽♀️ how many times via audio! So below 👇🏽 I outline the books, the couple, tropes, etc.
Got the idea 💡 of this series off one of the YT videos I watch! 👏🏽
Because of the nature of the series, might take me while to post more installments! 🙏🏾
