The Lily of Ludgate Hill by Mimi Matthews

I could not believe Victorian characters would really think or behave this way, but as an alternate history romance it was decent , if a bit lacking in real conflict or tension. Prone to a lot of modern psycologizing that I did not find convincing and obligatory sexual suggestion (very mild). The language was not too annoyingly anachronistic but also not very memorable, lots of cliches. Georgette Heyer, how we miss you.
