Synopsis

When Arden St. Claire enlisted the services of the Any Time, Any Place travel agency to help her plan the vacation of her fantasies, she never dreamed she would actually be transported back to charming Regency England. Arden is thrilled to be attending a London Season, but trouble follows when she arrives just in time to save a young Duke from the hands of kidnappers. Almack's and the glittering ton must wait while she's thrust into a daring plot that will place her fate in the hands of a notorious rogue who hires her as governess to the rescued boy. Harsh and cynical from the rigors of war, Captain Royce Warrick is prepared to marry his betrothed and tend his estates. But someone is plotting to murder his young ward and suddenly, out of nowhere, appears a beautiful stranger playing havoc with his sensibilities and his passions. Though he's not quite sure if the mysterious Arden is friend or foe, he's drawn to her in ways he cannot deny. And only time will tell if this most unusual woman will be his to claim forever...

Suitable for most readers 13 and up.

A lighthearted time-travel romance with mild violence (kidnapping plot) and period-appropriate romance that likely includes kissing and passionate scenes but fades to black. War trauma is mentioned but not graphically depicted.
