If you like Hallmark movies and "Proper Romance" novels from Deseret Book, then you'll enjoy this charming romance. It was a fun, quick read with excellent pacing throughout.
Due to a time traveling accident, Aurelia ends up dating a current and future version of Walter at the same time. The science fiction aspect of the book (time travel) is mostly just a plot device for the romance, and is well done in that respect - everything you could wish for in terms of humor and confusion. Very much a rom-com with a side of sci-fi not serious sci-fi, but the science is handled well enough to be believable within the plot. In fact, one of my favorite scenes is a discussion of whether time travel could be compatible with God.
My other favorite part was Aurelia's relationship with her roommate Jackie.
The book is set at BYU, with college students as the main characters. It is written mostly for an LDS audience (it could easily be redone towards a mainstream audience, but there is enough specifically LDS setting, and their faith is a big enough part of the main characters, that it will appeal mostly to an audience within that setting.)
It's a wholesome, clean, fun romance between Good Girl and Nice Guy.
