Julia must be extremely happy, as the release of Bridgerton – The Duke & I on Netflix, has soared many of her Bridgerton series books to the top-ten best sellers in the genre.

In fact three of them, are on the entire best-sellers in Kindle eBooks. As of this post, Bridgerton: The Duke and I (Book One) is at #3, Bridgerton Collection Volume 1: The First Three is at #6, and The Viscount who Loved Me: Bridgerton is at #9.

Congratulations, Julia!

UPDATE:  As of late 2019, Amazon ceased listing authors in popularity.

As Amazon states, the most popular author list is updated hourly.  So who are the reigning queens of the pen this time?  Some of the regulars remain, while some new releases have pushed others back up the ladder.  Here they are with their most popular books:

  1. Caroline Fyffe (Heart of Mine)
  2. Dragonblade Publishing (This is a collection of various authors – The Wicked Baron by Mary Lancaster leads the group.)
  3. Amy Harmon (What the Wind Knows)
  4. Christi Caldwell (The Governess)
  5. Samantha Holt (Once a Wallflower, Always a Wallflower)
  6. Kathryn Le Veque (The Mountain Dark)
