My thoughts:
I absolutely loved this book! It reminded me of Pride & Prejudice, which I think was kind of the point, but it included a few other elements to it. It was a sweet, clean romance with no spice. I loved the characters, the story, and I really enjoyed the plot. It was unique compared to most romances I've read more recently. This book felt like a breath of fresh air for me. It was, of course, somewhat predictable, but all romances are. I was just really happy with this book overall. I have no complaints about it. I read it on my Kindle, but I may end up buying a physical copy because I loved it so much. It was a short, easy read.
This book is split perspective between James and Diana. James is a man living in the modern day. He lives and works in Dallas, Texas, but flies to England for his best friend's wedding. While at the wedding, he gets sent on a journey through time... to 1812 to be exact. He meets a beautiful young woman named Diana. Diana is a girl who has decided she will never wed. She discovers a strange man on her property one day that looks as though he doesn't belong, just to find out that he doesn't belong. Together, they search for a way to get him home. They have to overcome many obstacles, and they have to decide if what they have is worth the difference in 200 years.
This book may be for you if you like:
- Regency/historical fiction
- Sweet, clean romance
- A little bit of magic
Overall, I highly recommend this book. I know the overall rating on Goodreads and Amazon isn't 5 out of 5, but I absolutely loved this one and it made me fall in love with sweet romance again. I'm going to be looking for more spice-free romances now.
