Book Review of
Carved In Stone
Gwen Kellerman lives a quiet life as a botanist at a New York college. She tries to ignore that she is an heiress to the Blackstone dynasty because she hopes to leave her family’s heartbreak and scandal behind her.
After a difficult childhood, Patrick O’Neill becomes a lawyer for the downtrodden Irish immigrants in his community. He struggles to afford his law office, but he is proud of the work that he does. That changes when Patrick takes a case that will emphasize the Blackstones’ legacy of corruption by resurrecting a thirty-year-old mystery.
Gwen is tasked with trying to get Patrick to drop the case, but the old mystery takes a twist. As a burgeoning attraction between the two grows alongside mounting danger, they will have to decide whether the risk to their lives is worth it.
Lynn's Review
Elizabeth Camden is one of my go to authors when I want a clean, easy to read, romance book and that is exactly what Carved In Stone was. It was a quick read for me. I read most of it while on a trip to MO for the weekend.
One of the things that I love about Elizabeth Camden’s writing is that it is clean romance, but it still has a decent storyline and plot. A lot of clean Christian romance is super cheesy. I don’t find Elizabeth Camden’s books too cheesy. Slightly, maybe, but not too bad.
Carved In Stone involves a wealthy widow, who is also a botanist, who lives on a college campus, and an Irish immigrant lawyer, who comes from a hard life. Their paths cross when his case involves her family’s unsolved mystery of a missing child.
If you love clean romance or Elizabeth Camden’s books, this is a good one.
