Even when they got married, he's still a complete waste of ink. Personally, it sealed my dislike of Phillip and made me uninterested in him altogether. I can't even tell you how broken that is and am struggling to come up with some reasonable explanation for what Quinn was thinking for that scene. And since she reached climax, that means they 'suit'. Not a single stupid thing.Īnd then he shows Eloise his idea of 'seeing if we suit' by diverting her into the library and engaging non-sex sex to give her an orgasm. I should have stopped reading then because he never gets better or changes his plan or does anything at all to help his children. Heck, it'd practically make me father of the year!' So his plan to help his children is a) avoid them and b) find someone else to fix it. Oh, and if I can find the perfect mother for them, that'd make everything all right. I almost threw a fit when (this happens in the first quarter, so I'm not going to spoiler-tag it) it becomes clear that something is wrong with his children and he's all 'I'm such a bad father, I'd better make sure I keep my distance. I'm not sure what that work is, but there sure seemed to be a lot of it judging by how much time he spends doing anything else (i.e. But he neglects his children and seriously expects to spend all day every day at his 'work'. I definitely expected better characterization for Eloise but she's mostly just generic Regency girl with a side of 'doesn't she talk a lot?' Phillip, on the other hand, is a self-centered snot-weasel and never actually gets past that. It's probably good if you've read Romancing Mister Bridgerton, though. They aren't terribly important, though, so this one is relatively self-contained.

This is fifth in the series and the couples from the others show up periodically in this one.
