About this ebook
June Harrington’s Merely a Matter of Time is a hammock-in-the-backyard, slow-burn love story between two outrageously gifted arcane scientists who fall back in time only to fall for each other.
Lucy Bright and her brilliant research partner Francis de Montmort (a former academic rival turned aggravatingly dear friend) never intended to (literally) blow up their life’s work and be thrown back in time from modern day to the early 19th century, but that’s rather what they’ve gone and done.
Now, trapped 200 years in the past with a broken time machine and a malicious, arcane heirloom, the pair must navigate society amongst the ancestors of their present-day peers without setting off any number of catastrophic chains of events.
But even as they work together to dodge overly-eligible daughters, a magically enhanced horserace, and an infernal sprite in a cable-knit cardigan, a question arises: can they maintain their carefully constructed composure as colleagues or has their misstep in time exposed something... more?
This deeply romantic story will have you looking at your best friend and wondering, is it merely a matter of time?
All at once, Merely a Matter of Time is a fresh take on fantasy romance, workplace romance, and regency romance. Full of banter, yearning, and debates on determinism this book is exactly what fans of Jane Austen and Connie Willis have been waiting for, and a perfect next-read for fans of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy, Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Faeries, The Love Hypothesis, and the Bridgerton Series.
Expect:
The slowest of burns
Former academic rivals
Best friends to lovers
He falls first and he falls harder
Opposites attract
