One of the most exciting historical fiction writers in a long time - Julia Quinn on Lisa Berne, author of the Netflix series Bridgerton

How many times can a rake get it wrong... before he becomes Mr Right?

Philip Thane—rogue, rake, and scoundrel extraordinaire—hadn't wanted to show up in the little town of Whittlesey to give a speech. He also didn't expect to somehow find himself stuck in time, waking up every morning to live exactly the same day over and over again.

On the plus side, it's giving him time to further his acquaintance with the delightful Miss Margaret Allen, in town to research the book she's writing. And Philip has no doubt she'll fall starry-eyed into his arms, just like so many other ladies of the ton have done before.

Yet Miss Allen stands firm against his wiles, day after day. How is it even possible? Why won't she change her mind? What must he do to win her heart?

Maybe, just maybe, it isn't Margaret who needs to change, but rather a certain rogue, who—if only he knew it—is head over heels in love... and badly in need of redemption.

The Redemption of Philip Thane is Bridgerton meets Groundhog Day in this rip-roaring regency romantic comedy for fans of Julia Quinn, Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer.

About the Author

Lisa Berne read her first Georgette Heyer book at fourteen, and was instantly captivated. Later she became a graduate student, a grant writer and an investment banker, but is thrilled to be returning to her roots and writing her own historical romance novels. She lives with her family in the Pacific Northwest. The Redemption of Philip Thane is the latest book in her regency romance series.
