Candy Hearts Romance series: FOR YOU by Emma Kaye

 About the Book:


It's Valentine's Day, and candy heart sayings mock Drew Engledown's lonely state. He wants more in his life than work, but hasn't met anyone he can imagine spending his life with. When he puts his own life at risk to save a friend, he's sent back in time to Regency London and mistaken for a murdered earl. Has he been given a chance at love with the earl's beautiful widow, or will he suffer the same fate as the previous lord?
When her husband's heir lays claim to all she once owned, Lady Engledown is left nearly destitute. So she doesn't know whether to be relieved or angry when the earl returns but claims he's not her husband. Could he be telling the truth, or is he toying with her? She doesn't know what to think of this man who is so different from the husband she never loved. Can they find happiness together, or will this man she comes to love leave her worse off than before?

Excerpt:

She took a delicate sip of the chilled liquid when they paused near the doors to the terrace. They were closed against the cool night, but a draft kept the over-warm air of the crowded ballroom at bay.
He pulled at his cravat, something he’d done repeatedly throughout the night, and let out his breath in a gush. “That’s better. It’s hot as an oven in here.”
She placed a hand over his to get him to release his collar. “We’ll stay but a few more hours. You may untie your cravat the moment we are out of sight within our carriage. Until then, please refrain from disrobing in public.”
He grinned and pulled her closer to his side than was seemly. “You’re just dying to get me naked, I see.”
She gasped. Heat flooded her face. “I meant no such thing. I—”
Drew laughed. “Sorry, sorry. I couldn’t resist. Modern humor.”
She flipped open her fan, waving it before her face in an attempt to hide a bit of the blush that had surely turned her face a brilliant shade of red. For a moment, she’d thought him capable of reading her mind, for thoughts of him naked had indeed entered her head.

MY TAKE:
This sweet, time travel romance is a wonderful story of star crossed lovers. I'm a sucker for time travel to begin with, and to mix it with a story of soul mates and end with a satisfying HEA made me love this story so much!

Drew travels back in time from current day London to the 1800s, where an unscrupulous ancestor by the same name has squandered his wife's fortune and gambled away her future. Can he save the day and show Julia what love truly means? Like I said, loved this story and will totally look for more books by Emma Kaye.

  1. Good luck on the release Emma Kaye! And good for you for fitting it in around mom/chauffeur duties. When I think of all the driving my mom did when we were kids, it makes me feel good that I was loved and extremely grateful to her.
