I remember reading a set of books timed in the 1800s or something. The background is a typical English manor, landlords, horse carriages.

Heroine is typically a young lady working as nanny or an impoverished by circumstances noble woman. There is a moody or mysterious hero.

I read them as Ebooks. But the stories were written by a contemporary author.

Please help me identify the titles.

That describes like a thousand books. You're going to have to be more specific. Do you recall any names?

Unfortunately no.

Is there a name to this kind of genre? So that I can visually browse the catalog somewhere and try to identify the cover?

Victorian romance is the name of the subgenre. Those tropes are often featured.

I wish you luck, but you're looking for a needle in a hay stack.
