Book excerpt: Algernon Wright, the Earl of Draconhawthshire, takes great care to avoid bad luck. Over the years, he’s learned to sway good luck in his favor, and because of that, he’s managed to avoid many unlucky incidents. The only thing he can’t change, however, is the curse that hovers over his life. On his twenty-fifth birthday, Algernon is doomed to die. That leaves him only one year to get married so he can pass on his title to an heir. Ideally, the lady he marries will be a spinster who isn’t all that interested in marriage but will be happy to be a mother. Then, when he dies early, neither one of them will miss each other. Instead of the old spinster he hopes to find, however, he comes across Miss Reina Livingstone. She is vibrant and full of life. She gives him the one thing he lost over the years: hope. Reina knows Algernon believes he’s cursed, but she doesn’t. The poor gentleman has lived under the heaviness of sorrow for so long that he hasn’t really learned to enjoy life. He deserves a love match. And she’s going to make it her mission to marry him, regardless of whether it brings good or bad luck.
Download or read book An Earl In Time written by Ruth Ann Nordin and published by Ruth Ann Nordin. This book was released on 2021-07-17 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Willow Knudson just inherited an English estate that she intends to sell. There are two problems. One, she's unable to sign the contract, and two, she can't even leave the property. She's not superstitious by nature, but common sense tells her something strange is going on. Little does she realize, she's inherited a place that comes with a curse that's been around for two centuries. In 1817, Julian Azazel, the Earl of Blackwell, went to the estate to tend to his father's funeral. That evening a missive came from a stranger warning him that when the clock struck midnight he was going to be cursed to relive the same day. He laughed it off and threw the missive in the fire. Two centuries later, he's stuck in an endless cycle of repeating June 17, 1817 over and over. He's no longer laughing. The curse is very real. All he wants is a way to end it. From before they were born, Willow and Julian were destined to end up meeting on June 17, 1817. An enchanted time portal has been set in place to allow Willow to step into the past. Willow had assumed wealthy titled gentlemen would be snobs, but Julian is anything like she imagined. It turns out he's the kindest person she's ever met. And even better, he's more attractive than he appeared in his portrait. It's enough of a temptation to convince her to stay in the past forever. At long last, the aching loneliness that has plagued Julian's life for centuries is at an end. Not only is there someone who understands what he has been going through, but she's far lovelier than he recalls any of the ladies in London being. But isn't it selfish to ask a lady from another time to give up everything to live under a curse with him? The path to happy endings can get complicated, especially when magic is involved. This fairytale romance features a dark villain, a curse, fairies, a hero who is an earl from the Regency era, and a heroine from modern times. People who enjoy Grimm's fairy tales and romance will enjoy this tale of true love conquering the darkest of curses.

Unfortunately, being a wallflower who spends most of her time reading and doing embroidery isn’t the kind of thing that attracts gentlemen. But, at long last, the spinster gets her chance. Her brother arranges a marriage for her with the Duke of Jowett. When her new husband dies on their wedding night, her hopes are dashed. There will be no love match. There’s not even the prospect of a child on the way. Though a widow, she might as well still be a spinster. Then Mr. Charles Duff comes along to visit her, and something begins to stir up within her that she was determined to put behind her once and for all: the desire for a love match. All Charles wants is to prove his friend was murdered… Charles would rather focus on his investments than take a wife. But when his friend dies on his wedding night, he knows it’s not from natural causes. His friend was murdered. And he’s sure Eris did it. The problem? He has to prove it since no one believes him. So he comes up with a plan to make Eris believe he’s fallen in love with her. Little does he realize that as soon as he steps through the doorway of her townhouse, he’ll start to discover that this shy wallflower is a hidden gem among ladies…and it’ll be difficult to tell the difference between pretending to be in love and really being in love. *Charles originally showed up in Kidnapping the Viscount.
