TeamJQ was supposed to hold this second excerpt until April, but things are getting grim and some brand new levity is, we think, the least we can do to help out. So clean off your phone, tablet, or keyboard, and wash your hands for a good 20 seconds.
Go ahead, we’ll wait.
Ta-da! Chapter 2 of First Comes Scandal is now posted on JQ’s site. Start at the beginning, or if you’ve already read Chapter 1, you can jump right to Chapter 2, in which our hero feels rather backed into a corner.
Have you preordered First Comes Scandal? No? Oh, we definitely recommend it. You’re going to want to know what happens at the dinner party, because that’s after Chapter 2, and if you preorder, you can have First Comes Scandal in your hands the day it releases: April 21.
Happy Reading! ~TeamJQ
Filming has officially wrapped on Season One of Bridgerton! This means we now move into the post-production phase, and after that, translation for subtitles and dubbing so that the series can premiere simultaneously around the world.

COVER REVEAL! Shondaland posted the world’s first view at JQ’s next cover (also now on JuliaQuinn.com). Head over to Shondaland’s interview with JQ for the scoop on which Bridgertons nearly steal the show in First Comes Scandal, what kind of input JQ had on this cover, and what the book’s working title was.
Team JQ will be posting the first excerpt from First Comes Scandal in the coming weeks, so be sure to subscribe to JQ’s News so you don’t miss a thing!
On January 5, 2000, JQ introduced the Bridgertons to the world with The Duke and I. Five covers later and with a Netflix series slated for later this year, The Duke and I has earned a celebration!
Updated: Monday, JAN 6 at 430pm EST Avon Books will be throwing a party on Instagram. You can also enter to win a new Duke & I paperback from Avon via their Instagram through Friday, JAN 10. #ReadBridgertons
In the meantime, if you’ve read it already, go inside the story of The Duke and I. If you haven’t read it yet, what are you waiting for? Read or listen to an excerpt from the beginning of the book, then keep reading — order your copy, or get an autographed one. Enjoy!
The holidays are sentimental, and TeamJQ is celebrating both beloved books and family memories. Since The Duke and I is turning 20 on January 5, and since Bridgerton will air on Netflix later in 2020, we thought it might be nice to share an essay JQ wrote about the special bond she shares with her father about the written word.
This piece first appeared at the end of the trade paperback edition of The Duke and I, but this is the first time it will have appeared on the web. Check out the newest JuliaQuinn.com Book Extra for The Duke and I and get an inside peek into when JQ first started writing, and then years later, when she created Lady Whistledown.
Enjoy the first five minutes of The Duke and I on audio, or read the Prologue and Chapter One right here on JuliaQuinn.com. Buy your copy in your favorite format.
Happiest of Holidays to everyone who celebrates!
