Gareth St. Clair is in a bind. His father, who detests him, is determined to beggar the St. Clair estates and ruin his inheritance. Gareth’s sole bequest is an old family diary, which may or may not contain the secrets of his past... and the key to his future. The problem is—it’s written in Italian, of which Gareth speaks not a word. All the ton agreed: there was no one quite like Hyacinth Bridgerton. She’s fiendishly smart, devilishly outspoken, and according to Gareth, probably best in small doses. But there’s something about her—something charming and vexing—that grabs him and won’t quite let go...

Thoughts

The penultimate book in the Bridgerton series and this time we’re focusing on Hyacinth, the youngest of the siblings. It’s actually quite a good adventure, I love how much time we get to spend with Lady Danbury, who is of course, the absolute hero of this series. But there’s a love story with a backdrop of questionable parentage and family dynamics, plus a big mystery and treasure hunt surrounding the whereabouts of some diamonds. Lots going on and lots to enjoy!
