Sophie Beckett and Benedict Bridgerton’s Relationship

*Spoiler Alert*

Benedict Bridgerton’s love story with Sophie Beckett in *An Offer from a Gentleman* follows a classic Cinderella-like plot.

Sophie is the illegitimate daughter of the Earl of Penwood, mistreated by her stepmother after her father’s death.

She sneaks into Lady Bridgerton’s masquerade ball, where she meets Benedict. They’re instantly smitten, but Sophie’s identity remains hidden.

Two years later, after being kicked out by her stepmother, Sophie works as a maid. She crosses paths with Benedict again, though he doesn’t recognize her as the masked woman from the ball.

They grow closer, but complications arise due to their social differences, and Benedict suggests she become his mistress, which Sophie refuses.

Eventually, Benedict realizes Sophie is the woman from the ball. After Sophie is wrongfully jailed by her stepmother, Benedict, and the Bridgertons rescue her.

With the help of her stepsister Posy, Sophie’s innocence is proven, and her dowry is revealed. Benedict and Sophie marry, and in the epilogue, they’re happily expecting their fourth child.

I have pretty much given away almost everything that happens in the book, however, I have left important details out to let you look forward to the series.
