Abby Quinn McDougall is a Southern lady whose once picturesque small-town life seems to be shrinking. Widowed at fifty and burdened by the care of an ailing mother and a cantankerous teenaged daughter, Abby wishes her life were simpler and her responsibilities fewer. Abby's daughter, Neal Grace, devastated by the loss of her doting father and the illness of her beloved grandmother, wishes for change, for the chance to break free from other people's expectations. And Abby's mother Edith wishes only to be liberated from life itself. But wishes often backfire. As their wishes begin to come true, the Quinn women start to wonder: Could it be that their old life wasn't so bad after all? Is it possible that the answer to their deepest longings has been right in front of them, all along?

Write a wish. Place it in the jar. Speak the wish out loud. Hide the jar in a safe and secret place. Your wish will come true at midnight. 27-year-old attorney Julia Lynton, fed up with uncouth and immature men, wants to meet a proper gentleman like the ones in her grandmother’s Regency romance novels. After discovering a mysterious jar in a secret compartment of an antique desk, she travels to Linwood Park in Surrey, England, to discover the jar’s origin. Shortly after arriving, she begins having dreams of things that happened over 200 years in the past. Using the wishing jar, she travels back to 1815 Regency England, where she meets Matthew, the perfect gentleman of her dreams. Viscount Matthew Linwood, trapped in an arranged betrothal to cold and haughty Miss Caroline Lambert by his Grandmother Linwood and Uncle Devon, meets Julia, and the two are instantly smitten with each other. But little does Matthew know that Devon is also enamored with Julia and is plotting with his grandmother to compromise her and force her into marriage. Will Julia be able to stay in the past and find her happily ever after with Matthew, or will her remaining result only in heartbreak and disaster for them both?
