Just Like Heaven (Smythe-Smith Quartet #1)

by Julia Quinn

Overview

Once again, #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn transports her readers to historical romance heaven! Quinn's Just Like Heaven is the dazzling first installment of a delightful quartet of Regency Era-set tales featuring the romantic exploits of the well-meaning but less-than-accomplished Smythe-Smith musicians--in this case, a beautiful violinist in the pitiful group who has her sights set on marrying the last unwed Bridgerton...unless her handsome, love-struck guardian has anything to say about it. Bridgerton fans will cry, "Encore!"--as will every reader who adores England's Regency period and great love stories that are smart, witty, and lighthearted.
