A New York Times Bestseller

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn comes the story of Hyacinth Bridgerton, in the seventh of her beloved Regency-set novels featuring the charming, powerful Bridgerton family, now a series created by Shondaland for Netflix.

HYACINTH'S STORY

Meet Our Hero . . .

Gareth St. Clair is in a bind. His father, who detests him, is determined to beggar the St. Clair estates and ruin his inheritance. Gareth's sole bequest is an old family diary, which may or may not contain the secrets of his past . . . and the key to his future. The problem isâ??it's written in Italian, of which Gareth speaks not a word.

Meet Our Heroine . . .

All the ton agreed: there was no one quite like Hyacinth Bridgerton. She's fiendishly smart, devilishly outspoken, and according to Gareth, probably best in small doses. But there's something about herâ??something charming and vexingâ??that grabs him and won't quite let go . . .

Meet Poor Mr. Mozart . . .

Or don't. But rest assured, he's spinning in his grave when Gareth and Hyacinth cross paths at the annualâ??and annually discordantâ??Smythe-Smith musicale. To Hyacinth, Gareth's 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 simpleâ??or as complicatedâ??as a singl… (more)

Just another Bridgerton romance story. This time it's Hyacinth's turn to get herself into trouble that ends in yet again another marriage. However, the search for diamonds makes this story fun and suspenseful.

What a fun Regency! Hyacinth is amusing, smart, and inventive. Gareth is the grandson of Lady Danbury. When the two mix, there is much to enjoy.

This was one of my favorites in the series. No boredom, no protesting in my mind that things didn't make sense, and the dialogue was fun.

Highly recommended for fans of the series. ( )

This entry in the series sees Hyacinth get her HEA, plus two mysteries to solve: who her future FIL really is, and where did her fiancé’s grandmother hide her diamonds. Probably my second favorite of the bunch so far - I loved it. ( )

Settimo libro e settimo personaggio della famiglia Bridgerton in evidenza.
Questa volta protagonista è la piccola di casa, Hyacint, uno dei personaggi più belli, simpatici e moderni di tutta la serie.
Testarda, indipendente, vivace, estroversa, dotata di una lingua tagliente, anticonvenzionale per eccellenza non poteva non essere amica dell’anziana temibile e simpaticissima dama del ton Lady Denbury.
Ed è proprio durante le consuete visite settimanali del martedì che conosce il di lei nipote, Gareth St. Claire, tanto amato dalla nonna quanto odiato dal padre che per tutta la vita ha cercato di ostacolarlo in tutte le maniere.
Sarà un diario scritto in italiano a unirli, in quanto Hyacint, che conosce la lingua, si impegnerà a tradurlo per poterne carpire i segreti che dovrebbero portare a scoprire dove è nascosto un tesoro in diamanti e forse anche a sciogliere il mistero delle origini di Gareth.
Un altro bel libro di questa serie che mi è entrata nel cuore, ben scritto, avvincente, emozionante e anche molto divertente, una vera chicca da non perdere assolutamente. ( )

Re: description from back of book -- And so she claims? Er, Hyacinth does speak Italian. It's not like she's pretending...This book is fun. Gareth is Lady Danbury's grandson, and I've liked her all through the rest of the Bridgerton books. Gareth is a fun character, although he shares some characteristics with Simon from "The Duke and I" - although only vaguely - in that they have severe parental issues. They're still very different characters, though. Hyacinth is also fun, although sometimes she gets on your nerves (although I think she's supposed to, actually, so it's alright). A good book! ( )

Dedication
For Steve Axelrod, for a hundred different reasons. (But especially the caviar!)
And also for Paul, even though he seems to think I'm the sort of person who likes to share caviar.

There were four principles governing Gareth St. Clair's relationship with his father that he relied upon to maintain his good humor and general sanity.
