Setting: earlyish 21st century Part 1: New York City and then England When Part 1 (chapters 1-7) of this story opens, Simon and Daphne have just shared their first kiss and then begin to figure out what a relationship will look like for them. After years of having feelings for each other but not being in the same place, some of their decisions surprise even themselves. Then there’s the matter of when and how to tell the rest of the Bridgertons that they’re a couple. The timing could be tricky with the Christmas holiday approaching. Perhaps a ruse to conceal their relationship will be a means of reintroducing Simon to the family without yet revealing that they’re together.
Part 2 (expected to be ready in July) will be at Aubrey Hall for the Bridgerton Christmas.
