by Julia Quinn
Charles Wycombe, Earl of Billington, must marry before he turns 30, or he will lose his fortune. Eleanor Lyndon, the vicar's daughter, faces an even worse fate: her soon-to-be stepmother has plans for Eleanor to be the domestic slave. By chance, these two troubled souls meet and soon realize that a marriage could benefit both of them. A quick marriage suits their needs, but they soon discover that each wants a little more from the marriage. Can the Earl and the vicar's daughter come together as a "real" married couple?
Okay, I read this for fun (and to recover from that awful Stephen King novel). It was okay, not really Julia Quinn's best. The absolutely absurd plot twist in the last forty or so pages really disappointed me, but I was basically amused by the romance.

If only I had seen that episode of Friends!
I recommend the following books in the Bridgerton series:
The Duke and I
The Viscount Who Loved Me
Romancing Mister Bridgerton
In my opinion, the more recent books in the series are not as good as the earlier books.
