The Earl's Timely Wallflower by Aurrora St. James

 Never let destiny meddle in your romantic affairs.

 About The Book: Lily Bennett, a hardworking single woman in a going-nowhere job, living in a going nowhere apartment better fit for a dwarf, is at the end of her rope trying to repair a going nowhere relationship with her younger siblings. Her only goal: to reunite her fractured family. The discovery of an unusual timepiece sends her back in time to Regency England, landing literally at the feet of one of the most eligible men in society.

Gabriel Hawthorne, Earl of Rothden, believes Lilly is insane, but due to circumstances beyond their control, they are stuck with each other. Thus begins the adventure of a lifetime for Gabriel and Lily who discover the person they’ve always wanted—but must make the most difficult decision in order to stay together.

 Our Review: We were struck, first by Lily’s trials and tribulations of living in a dead-end apartment, working a dead-end job only to pay the mounting bills and fulfill her dream—things any reader will relate to. Without warning, she finds herself in a place and time unknown to her, living with people she comes to love and who love and value her for her spirit and heart and caring attitudes. Who can’t understand? This is a timeless love affair, sprinkled with the author’s talent for mixing period dialogue with more modern slang and colloquialisms. This is one hoot of a book!

 On a scale of 1-5, The Earl’s Timely Wallflower deserves a 6.
