Oh... my... goodness


Ha ha, I just came across a website that sells etexts of Regency and Georgian Romance Novels!!! It's hilarious, there are such clever titles as "The Actress and the Rake," "Brighton Beauty," "The Improper Governess" and "The Parson's Pleasure." You can even read sample chapters. Ooo, and some of them involve time travel...

Yeah, a character will be in a museum and touch a magical coin or something that transports her to Regency England... where she naturally wins the heart of a dashing man with sideburns.
