The Girl with the Make-Believe Husband: A Bridgerton Prequel

Espetacular

Dies ist der Nachfolge-Roman zu  Because of Miss Bridgerton (Bridgertons Prequel) , in dem schon der Held dieses Buchs erwähnt wird: Edward Rokesby. Es geht hier um eine Heldin, die lügt, ein Held mit Amnesie und wie sie sich finden. Kennengelernt haben sie sich vorher aus unzähligen Briefen und sich schon so ineinander verliebt (es sich aber nicht richtig eingestanden). Ich fand es dann interessant was passiert, wenn sie sich dann wirklich treffen.Etwas seltsam ist die Lügnerei der Heldin, aus denen sie sich nicht mehr herauswinden kann, obwohl man verstehen kann warum sie am Anfang dies überhaupt getan hat. Dass es dann so lange dauert, bis sie die Wahrheit sagt, das ist seltsam.Zusätzlich fand ich es besonders an diesem Roman, das er mal nicht in England spielt sondern in New York zu Zeit der Kolonialkriege. Es ist interessant ein bisschen Hintergrundinformationen zu den Menschen dieser Zeit zu erhalten und wie wild das Land ausserhalb von New York damals war. Auch die Lebensumstände und Zustände in Krankenhäusern für Soldaten werden erwähnt.Wer den üblichen Regency-Roman sucht ist hiermit aber falsch. Because of Miss Bridgerton (Bridgertons Prequel)

Well written keeps you interested

I don't know why I had doubts about this. Julia Quinn is a queen and it was always going to be brilliant and I apologise for doubting how she was going to successfully get me to root for a couple when one was lying to the other but she totally did. She's a genius. She perfectly crafted these characters so that even though lies were involved I could understand Cecelia's motivation for lying and I got why Edward cared so much for Cecelia even though they'd never met and I didn't feel too terrible about the lies when she took advantage of his amnesia.I loved every page of this book and cannot wait for the next one. I have a lot of words to say about how frustrated I am about the last sentence of that book! That being said, this book was fabulous. I may not have fully understood how Cecelia convinced herself that Edward was in love with Billie but that was partially because I've read the last book! Also, he remembered who she was so how could he have forgotten about their agreement to marry and his love for her? But apart from that small plot point I was troubled by I loved it.Cecelia was such a brilliant character, I instantly felt sympathetic to her plight. I got her motivation for continuing the lie of marriage even after Edward awoke as she tried to find her brother because she loved him so dearly. It was Edward who I truly adored, though. I loved how he was honourable and always trying to do the right thing and not just because he was raised well. He truly was honourable because he was a good person. And he was charming and I loved him. I thought I'd feel terrible for him with the lies and I did want Cecelia to just fess up but I was totally cheering for them to sort their problems and live happily ever after.I basically loved this book. Definitely a favourite romance of 2017. I don't know how Julia Quinn does it but she is a genius.
