This was one of those episodes where I end up finding a gem of a series (at least to start with), followed by a much-loved (I believe) TV series, which, as of now, I am not liking very much (two episodes done now). But the book is a breeze to read, especially the Duke and his love interest, the eldest Bridgerton sister. Hilarious is the entire family of Bridgertons, starting with the eldest kid with alphabet A leading till H, so we know who is who from the family and never forget the hierarchy in the first place. I am finding it comical yet very entertaining to keep track of the entire family when it comes to their names and mentions. The purpose of Violet Bridgerton's (the mother) life is to get her Sons and Daughters married at the earliest to the right partners (especially the girls, whatever age they may be). First book is a love story but with a twist and a big secret of the duke as why he can’t marry or father any chidlren to take his line forward. If you are a big-time Bridgerton fan, let me tell you that I was introduced to Queen Charlotte first by my nephew through the terrific TV series of the same name, and then I was allowed to read the books on the Bridgerton family. Now that I am hooked to the series at least in the bookish way, I need to get the remaining seven from the same series and read them at the earliest, as the Fourth adaptation of the book into a TV series is right around the corner. The only thing that surprised me while reading and watching the series is the Duke; there is no mention of him being black in the book, while his picture on the book cover is of the same guy playing in the TV series, and he is black for some reason. Do let me know if you have read The Duke and I or any other series from Ms Quinn, as I believe she has written almost 30+ books so far, more or less all of them are regency novels. Review: The Duke & Duchess of Hastings finally become each other’s proportionate - Burdens & expectations on Simon started with his first breath. They reduced him to under-confidence and a deep-sated hatred for his father. This hatred fuelled him to excel and grow into the man he is. Daphne grew up in a close knit family. Having 3 elder brothers, she is quite pragmatic, witty, honest and funny. When he meets Daphne, he’s instantaneously drawn to her. Internal jokes took foot between them from the get go; their enticing, forbidden gazes expressing the romance. Did anyone say fated? Clever conversations and witty jibes at each other’s expense become the beginnings of them falling for each other. If he wanted to marry and have a chance at a family, Daphne would be the one! Daphne is soon made aware of his vehement denial to take a wife. But fate had a different plan for them and their desire wins! They have an enchanted wedding. Shortly, the truth about his demons is out in the open. Brave Daphne forces him to confront them. Simon realises that life with Daphne is too precious to be governed by anyone else but the two of them. They fulfil their lives in love, companionship & ever-present desire. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #173,577 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1 in Highlanders Romance #2 in American Historical Romance #11 in Holiday Romance | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 68,172 Reviews | ## Images ![The Duke and I: Bridgerton: 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81SFEuaYgdL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific Love Story with a Twist. *by R***A on 26 May 2025* I have told my favourite nephew to put a gun to my head and force me to watch a movie or a TV series that he likes and wants me to watch at the earliest.

This is my first-ever historical romance, and I'm so glad it is, because it's not just good—it’s pretty great! As a huge fan of the Bridgerton show, I was inspired to pick up the book—and I’m so glad I did! Just as I loved Daphne and Simon on screen, I found them just as captivating in the novel. The romance is beautifully written, with language that's refreshingly simple compared to what I’d imagine most historical romances to be (though I can't say for sure, since this is my first!). The show has done a fantastic job of bringing the book to life, capturing much of its essence. But, like any adaptation, there are always those little details that only the book can fully deliver—and that’s exactly why we love books so much! In the end, I definitely prefer the book over the show! As a true fan of Lady Whistledown, let me put it this way… “This reader is thoroughly delighted with the author’s work!” And if you are a Bridgerton fan, and love these tropes, 🌿 Fake Dating 🌿 Friends to Lovers 🌿 Damaged Hero 🌿 Regency High Society 🌿 Strong Family Ties 🌿 Brother's Best Friend 🌿 Marriage of Convenience then this one is a must read! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/808145685-the-duke-and-i-bridgerton-1](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/808145685-the-duke-and-i-bridgerton-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
