The Air I Breathe (A Bridgerton AU Textfic)

Anthony Bridgerton is a typical NYC hotshot attorney – self-important, tenacious, and highly promiscuous. He’s casually dated for years, but he’s getting older and is thinking about settling down. Enter Kate Sharma. She’s a brilliant special education lawyer, and though she’s entirely career-oriented herself, she’s trying to help her younger sister Edwina get back into the dating scene after ending a long relationship. Anthony and Edwina meet, and Edwina is immediately charmed. Unfortunately, Kate suspects that Anthony is not the kind, gentle person he pretends to be. Though Anthony and Edwina begin dating, things start getting complicated when Anthony and Kate realize they may have feelings for each other.

Sorry, I had to. :)
I'm not abandoning any WIPs, just got a bit distracted.

Disclaimers:
There may occasionally be lines from Bridgerton Season 2, and there may be a few nods to the original source material (‘The Viscount who Loved Me’ by Julia Quinn).
All photographs are used for entertainment purposes only.
I have no beta, so all mistakes are my own.
As the locale suggests, this fic is going to be highly Americanized, in addition to being modernized.
