Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How did Phillip's first wife, Marina, die?

Answer: pneumonia

Marina attempted to kill herself by drowning, but Phillip pulled her out of the lake before she could do so. Unfortunately, she died three days later of pneumonia.

2. What food does Phillip hate?

Answer: fish

In the beginning of the novel, this is one of the things that Eloise lists as what she knows about him.

3. What injury does Eloise get while staying with Phillip and his children?

Answer: a black eye

Oliver and Amanda set a trap for her outside her room. As one can imagine, Phillip wasn't too happy to see his prospective bride with a black eye.

4. What kind of scientist is Phillip?

Answer: Botanist

Apparently, he took a first in it at Cambridge. He also sent Eloise pressed flowers in a couple of his letters to her.

5. True or False: Eloise makes reference to the fact that Anthony had to act as both father and brother to her over the years.

Answer: True

Unfortunately, he did. After their father's death, Anthony inherited a huge amount of responsibility, including having to look after his mother and siblings.

6. Only once did Phillip ever want to use something other than his hand to punish his children. What was it?

Answer: riding crop

It was right after they managed to glue their governess's hair to her pillow... Thankfully, he didn't.

7. What is the name of Posy's husband?

Answer: Hugh

Posy is Sophie's (the heroine from "An Offer From A Gentleman") stepsister. She lived with the Bridgertons for years before she married Hugh, a vicar, and now she lives near Sophie and Benedict. Edmund was Eloise's father, and John and William are the names of heroes from Quinn's earlier novels (John, "Dancing at Midnight" and William, "Minx.")

8. What is the name of Benedict and Sophie's oldest son?

Answer: Charles

He came down with a horrible fever, and, when she came to visit after a fight with Phillip, Eloise stayed with him and tried to help him get better. Phillip came and gave him some tea that could break the boy's fever. William and Alexander are Benedict and Sophie's other sons, and Miles is Anthony's younger son.

9. Did Phillip love Marina?

Answer: No

Eloise wonders about this pretty much right up until the end. Marina was actually the fiancee of Phillip's older brother, but when both the brother and their father died, Phillip not only inherited the baronetcy, but his brother's bride as well.

10. At the end of the book, there is a letter from Eloise to her daughter. What is her daughter's name?

Answer: Penelope

This is also the name of Eloise's best friend and the heroine of "Romancing Mr. Bridgerton," the former Penelope Featherington aka Lady Whistledown, the notorious gossip columnist.
