I won't disappoint you by giving the answer away, but I will tell you that there is a good chance your suspicions are correct. If you have followed this series and have wondered who Lady Whistledown is, you will find out in this book. Their story is touching and funny and left me feeling extremely glad that they finally found each other. Each of them goes on a journey of personal change as they seek to improve themselves and find true love. Colin is a man without a plan he desperately wants a purpose in life instead of being known as just another charming Bridgerton.

Penelope has loved Colin for years, but her self-confidence is virtually nil, and her family, as well as the rest of society, long ago gave up on her ever getting married. Bridgerton is the story of Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington, both of whom appear in all the previous books. Her writing focuses not on complex plots or twisted situations, but on the hopes, dreams, and heartbreaks of her characters, people you grow to know and love.

I have been a fan of Julia Quinn ever since I read THE DUKE AND I, the first in the Bridgerton Family series. Not because it is vital to understand the story but because it will help you to understand the dynamic of the Bridgerton family and bsides, each of them is an excellent book well worth reading. A note to those who haven't read any of the other Bridgerton novels I would suggest you do so prior to reading this one. All is revealed, but to mention her name in this review would deprive readers of the pleasure of finding out for themselves. As for the identity of Lady W, never fear. The characters in this book are believable, likable and at times downright laughable. Colin, always my favorite Bridgerton brother, is finally characterized as something other than the easy going, charming third brother that he is pictured as in the other books and Penelope grows from a tongue-tied wallflower to a woman with enough spine to suit anyone. The dialouge between Penelope and Colin was even more snicker inducing than Viscount and this book had the added advantage of a slight mystery (Lady Whistledown's identity) to keep the reader entralled. Bridgerton has replaced Viscount as my favorite Julia Quinn novel and therfore my favorite romance novel, period. I don't think a great many will disagree with me when I say that Romancing Mr. Probably a great many people will disagree with me when I say that prior to this book my favorite in the Bridgerton series was Viscount Who Loved Me.
