    About this ebook

    A Regency time-travel romance in which a modern-day Austenite's ultimate dream comes true when she lands in the arms of a Regency duke, only to learn some fantasies aren't all they're cracked up to be when he proves less than a Prince Charming...

    "A love story and so much more, A Matter of Time should be on every fantasy, paranormal, contemporary and Regency romance readers "to read" list...I would definitely recommend this novel - you will be charmed, captivated, have a few good laughs and shed a few tears as you cheer Eliza and Dev on to find their happy every after ending." - Marsha, KeeperBookshelf

    ______________________________________________________________________



    Can a man with a past and a woman from the future forge a love for all time?

    Nobody would blame widowed doctoral student Eliza James for giving up on Happily Ever After; at twenty-nine, she's suffered more loss than most people do in a lifetime. But Eliza's convinced her own hero is still out there, waiting for her, just like in the beloved romance novels she devours. Every Jane Austen-loving girl deserves a Darcy, right?

    Only Eliza doesn't dream of a modern-day affair: she wants the whole Regency experience. When a magical manuscript thrusts her back two hundred years into the arms and life of one Deveric Mattersley, Duke of Claremont, however, Eliza realizes some fantasies aren't all they're cracked up to be, especially when her duke proves himself less than a Prince Charming.

    Convinced he's at fault for the death of his wife, Deveric Mattersley has no interest in women, much less marriage. Determined to atone for his sins, he decrees himself content to focus on running his family's estates, and on raising his son-until the mysterious Mrs. James appears. Who is she? What does she want? And why does she make Dev's blood run hot in a way no woman ever has?

    A charming time-travel Regency romance full of wit and humor, A Matter of Time reminds us that, like books, you can't judge people by their covers, and that love often comes when least expected.

      I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This is great book. It's well written, funny, full of brilliant characters and very entertaining. Deveric is amusing, Eliza is brave, and the family and friends add a lot of depth to the story. I love time travel stories mostly for the comedy of the characters trying to explain or understand the past/future differences, and this book didn't disappoint. I would love to read the stories about all the other characters too, all the sisters, the brother and the friends, in both times.
    • 5/5
      A wonderful, fast paced and romantic time travel tale with a twist. Who doesn't wish that they could write themselves the perfect man and then have him appear in real life to sweep you off your feet? Eliza manages to do just that with the help of her friend. She is whizzed off to Regency England after a New Year's Eve kiss from the Duke of Claremont.There are a few obstacles to overcome in their path to true love. Emily is a modern, twenty first century woman thrust into the restrictive era of the nineteenth century. On top of that, she is American and not everyone approves of the Duke's attachment to her. The Duke also has his own inner demons to face before he can embrace a future with Eliza.I really loved this story. It was such fun. There was plenty of humour, angst and romance. I am sorry I didn't read the first book in the series but that's something I will remedy as soon as possible.I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
    • 5/5
      Great, believable characters, even the Dragon! I would reccomend this book to anyone who loves time travel romances! I would enjoy reading of Amara in 2012, as I believe that is the conversation that Amara might want to have with Eliza. UPDATE: Omgee!! I just found the book. I am definately a mind reader! THANK YOU for writing it. I'm sure it will be every bit as good as Eliza and Dev's story.
