24. They Dote and Swoon and Fawn...

Welcome to Season Three of What Would Danbury Do... All Bridgerton. All the time.

This episode, (1x03 The Art of the Swoon) we find out just how many masturbation jokes the writers can squeeze into one script as Daphne learns important things about her body, courtesy of a very informative conversation with Simon. Also everyone ends up heartbroken at the end. It’s The Art of the Swoon, and we’re all in need of a fainting couch. 

This episode of What Would Danbury Do is brought to you by Love at First, the new sweet slow-burn contemporary romance from Kate Claybourn. This novel begins with a balcony scene and builds to the possibility of fixing missed opportunities. Along the way, there are whispered conversations, a miniscule amount of sabotage, sparks, chemistry, and healing. It’s the second chance, enemies-to-lovers, found-family, slow burn romance that I needed, and you need it too. You can find out more by visiting kateclayborn.com or jump straight to pre-ordering from your favourite independent bookstore. We also highly suggest following Kate on twitter @kateclayborn 

Featuring:
- Easter (jade) eggs
- Spoonilungus
- A magic hoo-hand
- The introduction of Bi-nedict
- Pretentious wank
- Heartbreak³

Here are the books and other media we talk about in this episode:
- Northanger Abbey, Jane Austen

Today’s What Would Danbury Do letter comes from Stephanie, on behalf of Samiah, one of the protagonists of Farron Rochon’s The Boyfriend Project. Stephanie says, “This book is great because it focuses first on female friendships and it's a contemporary with believable stakes. The HEA is definitely earned. And it better be the first in a trilogy, because I definitely want to know what happens with London and Taylor, the other two women.” You can find out more about The Boyfriend Project here and you can also follow Stephanie on Twitter @acornsandnuts.
