I came across this little gem on the romance subreddit.

Book cover of Lee Taylor's The Courting Coronavirus. It shoes a couple embracing. The man is shirtless and green and the woman is wearing a flowing pale regency dress. The tag states with, a viral load like that could anyone really blame her for falling for it?

Screenshot of the blurb.

It states.

It was her fault the virus got sent back to the nineteenth century in the first place.
Now the only way to get close enough to destroy it again… is to court it.

The only problem with that?
She might be falling for it.

Joan was never supposed to be working in a virus lab to begin with, so when she accidentally sends the virus hurtling through space and time, it’s up to her to go get it back. Finding the virus in the past isn’t going to be the hard part, however, it’s getting close to it… without getting too close.

Courting the Coronavirus is a short steamy erotica with a viral twist.
