The heroine was pitiful. The knight in shining armor was a chauvinist who quite literally slept with (or tried to sleep with) every minor female character in the book. I kept wondering what Dougless saw in Nicholas. I was never enamored by him and never rooted for them to just make it work.

The time travel doesn't make sense. Maybe The Big Bang Theory is getting to me; but if Nicholas were to time-travel from 1564 to 1989, then Dougless were to time-travel from 1989 to 1560, the Nicholas from 1564 would have already known the Dougless from 1560...it would not have been the other way around.
Sorry, but that bugged me throughout the entire book.
How was Dougless able to take her travel bag with her? I wasn't able to suspend belief long enough to believe she was rescued by travel size toiletries.
Finally, she used the public fountain as her personal shower. She contaminated everybody's water for her own benefit.
