Spinster Lady Hilary Merton, an avid student of archeology, asked permission to work on a neighboring site. But James Wincanon thought she was feigning interest in his field to trap him into wedlock—until Hilary brought the expert her most unusual find—a human in Roman costume who appeared after a bolt of lightning struck near a Druid circle. Regency Romance Paranormal by Anne Barbour; originally published by Signet
**From Library Journal
Thrilled by the prospect of having a new neighbor with whom she can share her scholarly interest in British Roman history and antiquities, Lady Hilary Merton is stunned, and then angered, by James Wincanon's denigrating assumption that she was feigning her interest merely to attract his romantic attentions. However, when a Druid's curse zaps a first-century Roman legionary into Lady Hilary's life, James and Hilary are forced into an uneasy, and eventually romantic, partnership as they ponder ways to keep his identity secret and return him to his own time. Overflowing with interesting bits of Roman history and dashes of Druid mythology, this well-written, rather unusual story displays Barbour's (A Dedicated Scoundrel, Signet, 1997) typical humor and wit and will appeal to Regency readers who like their heroines intelligent and outspoken and their plots a bit magical. Barbour is an award-winning Regency writer who lives in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
