Julian St. John needs a wife. An oath to a deceased guardian must be kept. Miss Clarissa Andrews, a vexatious beauty, has dangled after him all season but he has no intention of choosing such a she-devil.

Maine, Present Day
Author Claire Channing is desperate to write a bestseller to save her failing career. She moves into her grandmotherʼs abandoned cottage to write the book, but a local resort baron wants to raze the place. Without the deed, the clock is ticking on how long she can stay. She thinks she's writing St. Johnʼs story. But when she discovers an old prayer shawl and finds herself in his Regency world, she falls in love with him, a man she thought she invented! Miss Andrews, however, is also real--and she'd rather see Julian dead than in another womanʼs arms!
Claire must beat the clock to prevent a deadly tragedy, but can love beat the limits of time itself?

Forever, Lately by Linore Rose Burkhard is book one in the Forever In Time series. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I have read a few time travel stories, but never one set during the Regency Era. I thought this was a very creative and original idea. I think I have a crush on the hero Julian St. John. He is a man of true character and integrity. “Despite her confusion, she notices St. John’s waistcoat wasn’t scarlet and silver threaded as she’d written it, but black with gold thread, visible beneath a lovely white cravat and the lapels of a twin-tailed topcoat. He wore beautifully fitted trousers, and-. Suddenly he squinted toward her. Their eyes locked, sending an electric current through her whole body. She was caught in his gaze like an embrace, captured by eyes that were curious, yet almost forbidding. He was seeing her!”  This is a sweet romance with just a little kissing in it. I can’t wait to read Burkhard’s next book in this series.
