For fans of the Bridgerton series, "It's In His
Kiss" offers a delightful exploration of the often-overlooked Hyacinth
Bridgerton. While the TV series may not have given her much attention, readers
of the books have witnessed her growing charm and wit. Hyacinth, known for her
sharp tongue and intelligence, takes center stage in this installment, turning
down multiple marriage proposals due to her disdain for boredom.
The story unfolds as Hyacinth becomes entangled in a quest
with Gareth, Lady Danbury's grandson. Gareth, a rake with intelligence matching
Hyacinth's, seeks her help in translating his grandmother's diary, which holds
clues to hidden jewels. As they embark on this adventurous journey, they
discover a shared sense of humor and more.
The narrative is a riot, combining the expected romance with
unexpected elements like window-climbing escapades, questionable music, and
humorous poetry. The witty banter between Hyacinth and Gareth, complemented by
Lady Danbury's sharp remarks, adds to the overall charm. The storyline also
introduces a villain in Gareth's embittered father, providing a touch of drama.
Hyacinth shines as a character—outspoken, determined, and
stubborn, yet remarkably likable. Gareth, with his flaws and odd choices, finds
redemption through his love for Lady Danbury. "It's In His Kiss"
delivers the sparkling dialogue and engaging narrative that readers have come
to expect from Julia Quinn, making it a must-read for Bridgerton enthusiasts.
