“For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her” by Simon & Garfunkel

I think this might be the most romantic song ever recorded. And I sometimes thought of this book in my head as For Eloise, Wherever I May Find Her.

“Your Mother Should Know” by The Beatles

Violet turned out to be the greatest surprise in the Bridgerton series. I had no idea when I began that she would emerge as such a wonderful and fully-realized character. I think it was in this book, however, that we first saw just how wise and perceptive she could be.

“Life on a Chain” by Pete Yorn

“I was waiting over here for life to begin.”

Doesn’t that sound like Phillip?

“Someday Someway” by Marshall Crenshaw

One of my favorite parts of this book was how Phillip is such a guy. He doesn’t want to talk about things over and over (like Eloise), and the truth is, women just baffle him. Which makes the refrain “Someday, someway, maybe I’ll understand you” totally apt.
