Our view
“The Viscount Who Loved Me” is a light, funny Regency romance that lives on the sparring between its two leads. Kate is easy to root for; Anthony divides opinion, and some readers find him entitled and the period’s attitudes hard to warm to. Enemies-to-lovers banter is the draw here, with the Bridgerton family close at hand; a modern hero is not.
