The Lady of Bolton Hill

Now this is a book that I completely loved beginning to end. Page one had me captivated. I'm always nervous about new authors, but Elizabeth Camden with this one novel has made it to the favorite's keeper shelf and I will desperately await more stories to come! What is so extraordinary about this novel is that it was a perfect setting, but for once (something I do not often find with historicals) I could easily translate this and see it in my head as an everyday occurrence in the current time. It's a sad story, and a real story, but it's a beautiful story and so romantic and perfect. It's a romance of two humans and it's a romance of new beginnings with our Lord Christ. Elizabeth Camden has put so much into this book that it is just plain fabulous. I'm delighted to have read it and truly highly recommend it!

A friend here on Goodreads posted that this book was available for free, and for some reason I was in just the right mood to try it out. Usually I find Christian fiction too sappy and simplistic for my taste, but this one is good. I couldn't put it down for the final half! It has some suspense and good stakes to strive for in the characters' lives.
There were a few anachronisms, but not very many, and not enough to subtract very badly from the storyline. Most likely people without my history buff ways would not even notice at all.
The relationship between Clara and Daniel is satisfying, and I loved the recap of the epilogue. I look forward to having a chance to read the book about Bane, also!
