Elizabeth Camden became a go-to author for me with her book With Every Breath. This book is even better!

Beyond All Dreams is a historical novel set in Washington, D.C. during the Gilded Age. It has romance, mystery, and a story I couldn’t leave. There’s political intrigue, naval shenanigans, and so much more. I loved this look into 1897 D.C. It was also fascinating to have a large part of the story set in the Library of Congress.

The hero and heroine are so real, the conflict separating them so vast that I literally wondered how they could end up together –even as I wanted it for them. Each had strengths and foibles…that worked in perfect opposition to them. And the spiritual thread of forgiveness resonated in a strong way. And I love this — she taught me something about American history that I didn’t know in a way that made it enjoyable. This novel is perfect for every historical reader who enjoys Gilded Age, more than a romance, yet a romance that is sigh-worthy.

I can’t wait for her next book!
