Te doy mi corazón (Bridgerton, 3)

Like in the Cinderella story, Sophie's dream comes true one night. Behind her stepmother's back, she dresses like a queen and attends London's most prestigious masquerade ball. What's more, she manages to capture the attention of Benedict Bridgerton, the most attractive and charming bachelor at the gathering. However, she soon faces her harsh reality once again: that of an illegitimate daughter, poor and without resources. Fate offers her a second chance when she enters service in Benedict's household, though he doesn't recognize her as the beautiful young woman he has been searching for for years. She is now a mere servant, unable to reveal the truth to him. The magic of that night seems lost forever, or perhaps not? FROM RADIANT PRINCESS... Sophie lived a strange childhood. Everyone knew she was the daughter of the Earl of Penwood, and although he never acknowledged her as such, he ensured she lacked nothing. Everything changed when her father remarried, and her stepmother and her two daughters made Sophie's life a nightmare. With the earl dead, his will obligated them to care for the girl, but they never considered her an equal. Nor would they ever allow her to dare compete with them for the attention of the highly sought-after bachelors of the Bridgerton family, as attractive as they were well-off. They would sooner throw her out onto the street where, they assumed, she would never have a chance to get near them. ...TO MAID IN THE PRINCE'S HOUSE Who was that extraordinary woman? Benedict cannot forget that masked beauty who bewitched him in an instant, whom he knows only as the Silver Lady because of the color of her dress, and to whom, unconsciously, he gave his heart. But now, years later, he feels powerfully drawn to a simple maid he saves from a drunken assailant. She is the only one who makes him relive the thrill he felt with the mysterious masked woman. But she, too, seems beyond his reach, because of the insurmountable class barriers that separate them. However, the Bridgerton family has plenty of resources to help one of their own when love problems arise...
