Book Title: The Lady of Bolton Hill
Author: Elizabeth Camden
Description:
Female journalists are rare in 1879, but American born Clara Endicott has finally made a name for herself with her provocative articles championing London's poor. When the backlash from her work forces a return home to Baltimore, Clara finds herself face to face with a childhood sweetheart who is no longer the impoverished factory worker she once knew. In her absence, Daniel Tremain has become a powerful industry giant and Clara finds him as enigmatic as ever. However, Daniel's success is fueled by resentment from past wounds and Clara's deeply held beliefs about God's grace force Daniel to confront his own motives. When Clara's very life is endangered by one of Daniel's adversaries, they must face a reckoning neither of them ever could have foreseen.
My Review:
Elizabeth Camden is a gifted author who skillfully weaves together a beautiful romance, adventure, and historical facts. Every book that I've read of hers I've immensely enjoyed; and I've read every single one she's written.
You can't help but love both of the main characters of this book, even with their flaws and mistakes. Clara is an energetic and caring person. She'd do anything for Daniel; even try to help him overcome his thirst for revenge. Daniel comes across to everyone as gruff and insensitive but Clara knows the real him; a man who is passionate about protecting and providing for those he cares about.
I love it when an author writes such an enthralling book that you feel you are in the story too, right alongside the hero and heroine. The Lady of Bolton Hill was this way and I felt I was present in each of the scenes. I guess you could say I've now been in jail, had my house burnt down, and kidnapped. :) Pretty adventurous life, right?
If it's not obvious by my before words I'll say it now, I would recommend this book for fellow readers; especially those who love historical fiction.
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Be on the lookout for my next author interview, with Elizabeth Camden! Coming soon in the next couple of days!! :)
That is a gorgeous cover! My two favorite covers that I've seen pop up here are this one and the 'Cinderella'- which post I couldn't find. :-/
ReplyDeleteI think what makes both those covers so pretty are the gorgeous dresses. :D I believe the Cinderella post you're thinking of is "Fairy Tales / The Captive Maiden".
