I love time travel stories and this one was a fanciful piece of fluff that didn't require anything but for the reader to just enjoy a  simple love story.  My only complaint is the total lack of any historical accuracy.  Matthew was an aristocrat but he behaved like a merchant or a banker.  He worked. Which was a no no for the aristocracy.  The household should have been full of maids and footmen, not just two servants.  The atmosphere was too casual in the formality of the time period.  Everyone addressed Matthew by his first name and not by his title. Servants and shopkeepers would never have done this.  Emma was a sweet woman and not very complex.  I enjoyed the feeling of family they established at the end. I do wish Matthew would have found out she was from the future. It almost seems like the time travel was just not a factor in the story.
