Meet Our Heroine . . .

All the ton agreed: there was no one quite like Hyacinth Bridgerton. Shes fiendishly smart, devilishly outspoken, and according to Gareth, probably best in small doses. But theres something about hersomething charming and vexingthat grabs him and wont quite let go . . .

Meet Poor Mr. Mozart . . .

Or dont. But rest assured, hes spinning in his grave when Gareth and Hyacinth cross paths at the annualand annually discordantSmythe-Smith musicale. To Hyacinth, Gareths every word seems a dare, and she offers to translate his diary, even though her Italian is slightly less than perfect. But as they delve into the mysterious text, they discover that the answers they seek lie not in the diary, but in each other . . . and that there is nothing as simpleor as complicatedas a single, perfect kiss.
