More about the book
From the author of Mister Hockey comes a sizzling marriage of convenience romance featuring a pro hockey player who accidentally travels back to Regency Era England and encounters a captivating contemporary of Jane Austen. Goalie Tucker Taylor, sidelined by health issues, visits his sister in England, but an unexpected plunge into an icy pond sends him to 1812, where he meets the intriguing Lizzy Wooddash. Lizzy, who dreams of a life filled with books and intellectual conversations, seeks freedom from marriage, a privilege only widows like her cousin Georgie enjoy. The thought of becoming a widow by marrying a dying man or killing a healthy one is unappealing to her. However, Tucker's arrival from the future presents a unique opportunity: they could marry, and his subsequent "death" would grant Lizzy the independence she craves. As they navigate this unconventional arrangement, sparks fly, and they discover that love often complicates even the best-laid plans. Will their connection withstand the challenges of time, or will Lizzy end up with the heartache she feared while pursuing her dream of independence?
