A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the regency era about finding your spark – a lesbian Jane Austen story

Description

The New York Times bestseller from co-author of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl comes a fresh and inventive sapphic romantic comedy that's What If It's Us meets Bridgerton.

What if you found a once-in-a-lifetime love… just not in your lifetime?

Seventeen-year-old Audrey Cameron has lost her spark. After an embarrassing run-in with her ex-boyfriend, she’s told that she needs to get back out there and take risks. What she doesn't expect is to be transported to Regency England!

Lucy Sinclair has her own problems – stifled by her father and trying to avoid an unwanted marriage proposal – when Audrey lands into her life, claiming to be from two hundred years in the future, it's a welcome distraction.

While the girls try to understand what’s happening and how to send Audrey home, their sparks make a comeback in a most unexpected way. Instead of falling for their suitors and the happily-ever-afters everyone expects of them, they fall for each other.

Can their love story survive impossible circumstances?

A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the Regency era about finding your spark – a lesbian Jane Austen story.
