Goodreads Summary
Cora Rey wanted a fresh start in life, but being thrown back in time to 1850 isn’t how she expected to do that. She discovers that Victorian England isn't the pleasant social whirl Jane Austen led her to believe, but when in Rome—or in this case Twickenham . . . She’s determined to have the vacation of a lifetime, especially in the company of a certain duke.
Simon Tuttle never expected to become the duke of Hertfordshire, never wanted it, but now he is, and eligible women seeking a title consider him the next trophy to be taken in the marriage mart. A union of convenience is the most he hopes for due to the shame-filled secret he bears—until he meets Cora. Now, he imagines that a love match could be possible after all. Hiding his secret from society has been easy—hiding it from Cora proves impossible. Can Cora love a man like him despite learning the truth?
This delightful romance is a little Regency, a little contemporary, and a lot Victorian.

Review
This was a fun time travel read. The beginning took a few chapters to get into, but soon I was flying through this book. There were a few unexpected twists that I liked, but I don't want to give anything away, so I'll let you discover them for yourself. The characters were fun, and interesting. And of course I loved the Victorian England setting. If you are looking for a fun, quick, time-travel romance, this is for you.
