After searching my own shelves and double-checking online databases, I can say there are really only two core novels in her time travel series: 'A Knight in Shining Armor' and 'The Summerhouse'. She wrote plenty of other romances with light magical or historical elements, but those two are the main ones that fit a strict time travel description. Trying to find an official "order" might be overthinking it a bit because they're independent stories.
If you absolutely need a chronology, you could place 'A Knight in Shining Armor' first in your reading since it's arguably more iconic and establishes that kind of time-crossed romance vibe she's known for. 'The Summerhouse' involves a magical place granting wishes, so the time travel there is more of a plot device for a character's second chance. I'd just read whichever premise grabs you. Honestly, the bigger challenge is tracking down the older paperback editions of these—they have a certain 90s charm that the newer print runs lack.
My cousin asked me this same question last week! I had to pull out my mom's old collection to check. The direct answer is just 'A Knight in Shining Armor' (1989) and then 'The Summerhouse' (2001). There's a huge gap between them, and 'The Summerhouse' isn't even purely time travel—it's three women getting a do-over. Deveraux revisited similar themes in the later 'Forever' series, but that's more about reincarnation and past lives than traditional time travel.
My personal recommendation is to start with 'A Knight in Shining Armor'. It’s the classic. If you love that particular mix of historical detail and modern-day humor, you'll probably enjoy 'The Summerhouse' even with its different structure. After those, you'd have to branch into her Montgomery/Taggert family sagas for more historical romance without the sci-fi twist.
That's a short list. It's basically 'A Knight in Shining Armor' and 'The Summerhouse'. No strict series order exists. Some sites might bundle her Nantucket or 'Forever' books into a time-slip category, but they don't quite fit. Just grab the two main ones—both are standalone. The first is a medieval knight in modern times; the second is three friends revisiting their pasts.

Her mate. The Alpha. When her family hears that she is talking about the existence of supernatural creatures again, they decide that enough is enough.

I've always been drawn to time travel romance because of the way it mixes love with the thrill of history or futuristic worlds. One of my absolute favorites is 'Outlander' by Diana Gabaldon. The chemistry between Claire and Jamie is electric, and the historical details make the story feel so real. Another great one is 'The Time Traveler's Wife' by Audrey Niffenegger. It's heartbreaking but beautiful, showing how love persists across unpredictable jumps through time. For something lighter, 'A Knight in Shining Armor' by Jude Deveraux is a fun, charming read with a medieval knight popping into the modern day. These books all capture the magic of love defying time.
I got into Deveraux through her Montgomery/Taggert stuff, but the time travel ones really stood out. A Knight in Shining Armor' is the obvious classic—Nicholas showing up in a modern bathroom is such a hook. The romance is intense, almost feverish. It can feel a little dated now, some of the gender dynamics, but the central dilemma of loving someone from another century sticks with you. I found the ending genuinely haunting in a way most romances aren't. I'd start there to see if you vibe with her approach to the trope. Then maybe try 'Remembrance', which ties back into the Montgomery family but through a reincarnation lens; it's less pure time travel but scratches a similar itch. 'The Heiress' and 'The Duchess' have some time-slip elements woven in, but they're more part of the broader series tapestry.
I actually think starting with the classic gives you a baseline. If you love the high-concept, fated-souls drama of 'Knight', the others will work for you. If you find it a bit too melodramatic, the ones where time travel is a secondary element in a bigger family saga might be a better fit.
Jude Deveraux has a couple of novels that really nail the time-travel romance thing, where the history isn't just wallpaper. 'A Knight in Shining Armor' is the big one everyone knows—Dougless Montgomery gets dumped and cries on a tomb, and this 16th-century earl, Nicholas Stafford, shows up. What I like is that the history feels messy and real; Nicholas isn't some polished fantasy knight, he’s confused and angry about being in the future. The romance builds from that clash.
Her other one is 'Remembrance', which is part of the Montgomery/Taggert family saga. The setup is a reincarnation story more than a straight time slip, but the past-life sequences in medieval England are extensive and drive the whole plot. It’s less about the mechanics of time travel and more about the soulmate-across-centuries idea, which can feel a bit sweeter and more fated than 'Knight'. Some readers find that more appealing, others think it’s too neat.
I haven't actually counted them all up in a list, but thinking through her catalog, it's a central part of her time travel work. The main ones that jump to mind are 'A Knight in Shining Armor', 'Remembrance', and 'The Heiress'. I'd argue the heroine in 'The Heiress' is particularly steely, having to navigate two different time periods and a complicated legacy.
You could maybe include 'The Duchess' as well, though that one feels more like a historical with a fantastical twist than a pure time travel. But the female leads are almost always the driving force, the ones making the choice to cross time or adapt to a new era. It's less about the mechanics of time travel and more about the woman's journey through it. That's probably why those books have stuck with me more than some of her straight contemporaries.
