Especially because I was going to be in four different points of view, and I didn't want George to come in halfway through. And then, after that, I really wanted to run chronologically in a way that it didn't in the show. We all know what's gonna happen to him, but we don't necessarily need it in our faces as we're watching them fall in love. I just didn't think I was going to have enough room in the book to do all of it, but I wanted at least the Charlotte and George arc to read like a romance novel - like what you get in a Julia Quinn romance novel. The first big decision was not to include the timeline. How did you decide the timeline for the novel? The novel also leaves out some storylines from the series, such as Lady Danbury's affair with Violet Bridgerton's father. We see King George's point of view from the beginning of the novel, rather than it being a plot twist, like it is in the TV show. The book is more chronological than the series. It was a puzzle, and it used a very different part of the writing brain than I'm used to. I had to really dig in and pull out pieces and try to fit them. I obviously read all the "Bridgerton" scripts, but I never had to analyze them the way that I analyzed these scripts. It taught me a lot about what makes a good script, too.
