Borrowed Vows (1995)
“She guessed he’d gone to his apartment, which adjoined hers, or rather Rosalind’s, and so she made her way in that direction.
It was strange how she knew the layout of the castle. From the moment she entered, she was completely familiar with everything about the ancient fortress. She was also aware of exactly how to conduct herself, so that when she encountered a footman, she inclined her head just sufficiently and then swept on by in a whisper of emerald silk. It was almost amusing to know how... completely she fooled him, but then why should he think of her as anyone other than the real Lady Marchwood? How could a lowly footman from early nineteenth century England possibly detect that beneath her ladyship’s jeweled exterior there was a New Yorker from the future? Indeed, when she caught a glimpse of reflection in a wall mirror, she found it hard to believe herself! But then dreams were like this, weren’t they? The impossible and unlikely happened all the time. She’d once dreamed she walked naked in Fifth Avenue at midday, so why not this?MoreLess
