Do you know this ’80s time travel romance?
I’m asking this one on behalf of someone else, but the book sounds fascinating. Any help would be appreciated!!
Many years ago (mid to late 80′s) I read a time travel romance and loved it. I think there were 2 novels. Unfortunately, I can’t recall the author or the title of either novel. I think the author’s first name is either Lisa or Jill but I’m not sure and I have no recollection on her last name. None what-so-ever. (There’s a good chance that the female character’s name was Lisa or Jill.)
If I remember correctly the story starts with a woman driving when bam! A gorgeous man appears in the passenger seat dressed in early to mid 18th century apparel. One thing leads to another she freaks out, they fall in love, marry and have a child when on Christmas he goes back to his own time right before the heroines eyes. The second novel she ends up going back with their son Kitt, becomes a maid, and tries to find out what happened to her husband in her spare time. Next thing you know her employer is hosting a party and low and behold her husband is a guest.

Sounds interesting, but I’m not sure. It made me think about "Somewhere in Time". Originially the book was called "Bid Time Return". There is a mention in the early pages about a visitor named "Kit". The story though, is from the man’s POV. He falls in love with a woman in a portrait at a hotel. Then travels back and meets her. Her name is Elise. The author was Richard Matheson ("What Dreams May Come", "I Am Legend") and the movie is a "cult classic" starring Christopher Reeves and Jane Seymour. It’s really great!
