Cuffing Season: Bridgerton Edition
Lady Whistledown’s newest issue on The Ton’s singletons
Dearest reader,
It is said that time waits for no man. So alas, the sun doth set upon another summer season.
But like many a flitting young heart, its wandering eyes have fallen agaze upon a promising new suitor: Autumn.
Even I, your humble Lady Whistledown, have my passions lit aflame by the leaves changing into colourful new wears, fresh from the modiste.
However, if you are to ask The Ton’s bachelors and maidens, those for whom summer courtship bore no fruit, it is a most distressing time.
Being single during winter presents a prospect most disagreeable. Enough to make haste the desire to “lock someone down,” in their speak.
And so do these singletons present themselves to society, thus beginning another Cuffing Season!
Who shall be this season’s Diamond of the First Water?
Might it be one of the beguiling maidens of house Bridgerton? Or shall one of the colourful flowers plucked from house Featherington attract a Duke’s bee sting before winter?
Only time — and this author’s many confidantes — will tell.
