關於本有聲書

Dear Reader,
The Bridgertons are by far the most prolific family in the upper echelons of
society, both in deed and word, and now, for the first time, their most indelible
quips and barbs have been gathered here for your reading pleasure.
From Anthony’s arrogance to Hyacinth’s hijinks, the family has long been fodder
for society gossips ... and indeed even for This Author, who has come out of
retirement to pen thirteen new columns, each more delicious than the last.
Whether the topic is love or family, courtship or competition, you may be assured
that the Bridgerton wit and wisdom is on full display within these pages. And
although a Bridgerton never passes up the opportunity to tease and torment
another Bridgerton, their love and devotion is never in doubt. It is why you, Dear
Reader, will come to understand what the rest of the ton already knows ... there is
nothing like a Bridgerton.
Yours truly,
Lady Whistledown

關於作者

Julia Quinn is the pseudonym used by Julie Pottinger (born Julie Cotler in 1970), a best-selling American historical romance author. Pottinger grew up in the New England and California. She has appeared on the New York Times Bestseller List nine times. Pottinger went to Harvard and majored in Art History. After getting this degree, she decided that she wanted to be a doctor, so she had to complete two more years of college to fulfill her science credits. While studying science, she drafted two romance novels. A few weeks after she was accepted to medical school, she discovered that her first two novels, Splendid and Dancing At Midnight, had been sold at auction, so she postponed medical school for two years while she wrote two more novels. By the time Pottinger finally entered Yale medical school, three of her books had been published. After only a few short months of studying medicine, however, she left medical school and devoted herself full-time to her writing. Pottinger lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, Paul Pottinger. She was the recipient of the Romance Writers of America RITA Award in 2007 for "On the Way to the Wedding" and in 2008 for "The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever". In 2015 her novel, The Secrets of Sir Richard Kenworthy made the New York Times bestseller list. Julia's title, Because of Miss Bridgerton, is a April 2016 New York Times bestseller.
