So far as I remember, Connie Willis' Oxford Time Travel novels are pretty much devoid of sex, possibly because the time and places visited are so often insalubrious.
I've read "Doomsday Book" and 'having sex with plague raddled Englishfolk' is, I agree, not the main focus of that book. I haven't read "To Say Nothing of the Dog", so don't know, but did read her Blitz novels and again the romance element is downplayed.
Let us not forget Robert A Heinlein’s All You Zombies in which an Intersex man goes back in time before his gender reassignment operation and impregnates himself ( or should that be herself?)

I believe in "To Say Nothing of the Dog" there is a bit of unrequited lust.

Quite right! I should have included that.
A unique interpretation.
