Sometimes you find love in the most unexpected of places....
This is not one of those times.
Everyone expects Billie Bridgerton to marry one of the Rokesby brothers. The two families have been neighbors for centuries, and as a child the tomboyish Billie ran wild with Edward and Andrew. Either one would make a perfect husband...someday.
Sometimes you fall in love with exactly the person you think you should....
Or not.
There is only one Rokesby Billie absolutely cannot tolerate, and that is George. He may be the eldest and heir to the earldom, but he's arrogant and annoying, and she's absolutely certain he detests her. Which is perfectly convenient, as she can't stand the sight of him, either.
But sometimes fate has a wicked sense of humor....
Because when Billie and George are quite literally thrown together, a whole new sort of sparks begins to fly. And when these lifelong adversaries finally kiss, they just might discover that the one person they can't abide is the one person they can't live without....

Anne Wynter might not be who she says she is.... But she's managing quite well as a governess to three highborn young ladies. Her job can be a challenge: in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play that might be a tragedy (or might be a comedy; no one is sure), and tending to the wounds of the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. After years of dodging unwanted advances, he's the first man who has truly tempted her, and it's getting harder and harder to resist.

Geschichte
Hugh Prentice has never had patience for dramatic females, and if Lady Sarah Pleinsworth has ever been acquainted with the words shy or retiring, she's long since tossed them out the window. Sarah has never forgiven Hugh for the duel he fought three years earlier, the one that forced her cousin into exile, nearly destroying her family. But when the pair is forced to spend a week in close company, they discover that first impressions are not always reliable. And when one kiss leads to two, three, and four, the mathematician may lose count, and the lady may, for the first time, find herself speechless.

Unlike most men of his acquaintance, Gregory Bridgerton is a firm believer in true love. He'd have to be an idiot not to be: all seven of his siblings are happily married. Gregory figures he is just biding his time until the right woman comes along. And so when he sees Hermione Watson, he knows with every fibre of his being that she is meant to be his. But through Hermione's closest - and slightly less beautiful - friend, Lucy Abernathy, he finds out that Hermione is desperately in love with another man. Sadly, by the time Gregory figures out the right girl is actually the wrong girl.

Once upon a time, a historical romance author created a family.... But not just any family. Eight brothers and sisters, assorted in-laws, sons and daughters, nieces and nephews (not to mention an overweight corgi), plus an irrepressible matriarch who's a match for any of them.... These are the Bridgertons: less a family than a force of nature. Through eight best-selling novels, listeners laughed, cried, and fell in love. But they wanted more.

Die Luft ist raus bei den Bridgertons
Das Buch ist ein Prequel zu der Bridgertons Serie - angesetzt 1799 und die Hauptperson ist Billy Bridgerton, ältere Schwester von Edward Bridgerton (dem Vater der Bridgerton Geschwister aus der Serie die mit The Duke and I beginnt, leider nicht bei Audible erhältlich, ich habe noch die Cassetten hier liegen, von der gleichen Sprecherin erzählt. Sie scheint d r Familie ebenfalls etwas überdrüssig geworden zu sein).
Billy ist ein Wildfang und lebt in Aubrey Hall als de-facto Verwalterin des Landsitzes. Gerne klettert sie in Hosen auf Bäume, fällt vom Dach, reitet im Männersitz, schießt und spielt natürlich exzellent Pallmall. An Männern hat sie wenig Interesse, ihre Londoner Season musste ausfallen, da sie zu wenig Manieren hatte.
Die Geschichte selbst ist so vorhersehbar wie langweilig. Selbst die obligatorische Entjungferung vor der Hohzeitsnacht ist uninspiriert, aber zum Glück auch schnell vorüber. Frau Quinn benutzt seit Jahrzehnten die immer gleichen Floskeln und ich konnte die Flut von I'm going to kill her schon nicht mehr ertragen.
Dazu kommt ein absolut eklatanter Mangel, auch nur zu versuchen, die Personen zeitgemäß handeln zu lassen, ganz zu schweigen von Eßgewohnheiten oder sonstigen historischen Details. So sind Beschreibungen von Häusern, Kleidern oder sozialen Ereignissen auf das absolut nötigste reduziert, vereinzelte Details offenkundig unsachlich oder extrem oberflächlich.
Die Personen sind aber auch ohne zeitlichen Kontext blass, charakterlich nicht greifbar und wenig sympathisch. Sie sind in ihren Vorlieben den alten Bridgertons so ähnlich, dass ich mich frage ob Frau Quinn tatsächlich nichts anderes einfällt als Menschen tu beschreiben die am liebsten auf ihrem Landshut bleiben, eine sehr geringe Allgemeinbildung haben und Hunde lieber mögen als Katzen.
Der Humor, der einige ihrer vorherigen Bücher rettete, fehlt ebenfalls gänzlich.
Ich vermute sehr stark, dass es aufgrund der diversen Geschwister eine weitere Reihe geben wird, die werde ich mir aber nicht mehr antun.
Es scheint als wären Frau Quinn die Ideen ausgegangen und als ob ihr auch die Motivation fehlt, wenigstens grundlegende Dinge zu recherchieren. Schade!
