Daphne Bridgerton [f41] is very happily married to a duke [m49] when she finds herself in a position that Kate described as her very worst nightmare. 

Rather than sharing this blessed news with her husband, Daphne instead prolongs the not-telling long enough that pretty much every other person in London knows before he does. 

What is marriage if not for keeping little secrets? 

It’s Season Two: The Second Epilogues, and we’re all left asking ourselves, ‘but why?’

Featuring: 

• Daphne Bridgerton Hastings, the fourth Bridgerton sibling and mother of four

• Simon Hastings, a bonafide Duke who leaned into the alphabetical naming conventions

• A chamberpot

• Hyperlexia - and a lesson on good parenting

• Some letters that probably everyone forgot about

• An opportunity to break out the baby name book (spoiler: they name him Edward)

This week, our What Would Danbury Do feature book is Crush Interrupted by Zaida Polanco. You can learn more about Crush Interrupted and find buy links here.
