Golden Rose Nominee! What happens when a modern woman’s innocent wish for a happy marriage lands her back in time, in bed with a devilishly handsome nobleman?
AN INNOCENT WISH--Little did modern day Hillary Logan realize when she made her innocent wish for a happy marriage, that she’d be waking up in bed next to a handsome English lord—in the year 1815! Struggling to adjust to Regency England, she teaches the dashing marquess a thing or two about love and “a woman’s place.”
A PLEASANT DIVERSION—Seeking a diversion from the ongoing horrors of the Napoleonic Wars, Simon Altmont looks forward to a liaison with the attractive woman in his bed. She would make a perfect new mistress! He soon learns how different his mysterious Mrs. Logan really is. The Marquess of Darver has finally met his match!
Excerpt
Hillary’s cheeks radiated heat. She knew her face had to be the color of her nightshirt--shocking pink. She was standing there half-naked in front of the most desirable man she’d ever come across--and a stranger to boot. Brother! She fingered the long line of buttons at her bodice. “I wish you’d hurry. I’m uncomfortable enough as it is without you eyeballing me.”
The man unsuccessfully turned his laughter into a cough, and then he gave her that lopsided grin again. “Certainly, my dear. Although I must say that I have never heard such a quaint manner of speaking. I find the term ‘eyeballing’ quite expressive, to be sure.”
She tapped her foot. How dare he make fun of her speech when he sounded so... so British!

Affaire de Coeur
"5 stars! A charming read filled with spirited characters and unusual situations. A delightful journey in time. Fast, fun, unpredictable and compelling. An unusually spirited heroine for a Regency romance."--Affaire de Coeur
Scribes World Reviews
"Susanne Marie Knight's Regency story is one of the best time travel novels I've read in years. Hillary's final understanding and acceptance of what has happened to her is well written and very believable. This is often a stilted area of a time travel novel but Ms. Knight handles her characters and their reactions with the skill of an experienced writer. She also knows how to hold your interest and keep a story going. I read Lord Darver's Match in one evening and I'm definitely looking forward to more novels by Susanne Knight."

The Word On Romance
"LORD DARVER'S MATCH is to be read with thirst as it speeds crazily from the beginning to the end, with dialogue reminiscent of William Powell and Myrna Loy in the Thin Man movies. This is a book to buy, to keep forever, and to take out once a year, blow the dust off and devour it all over again."
