Kate Norton Livingston is a working woman in a time when most women stayed at home to take care of family and children. She longs to do more with herself as a career. She has always strived to do her best, throughout school and in her career. She finds the opportunity to move up the career ladder with the help of a man she never expected to see again. Trevor McDonough was Kate's strongest competition in school, and she never expected that he would be the one to offer her the chance to move ahead in a working world dominated by men. Kate agrees to go to work for Trevor as he tries to find a cure for tuberculosis. As they try to guard themselves from whoever is trying to stop their work and from the secrets from the past that cannot remain hidden, Kate finds herself drawn to Trevor in a way she never expected.
I loved absolutely every minute of this story. Elizabeth Camden creates a depth within her characters that draws the reader into the story, almost as if the reader is there in the same room. I found it virtually impossible not to fall in love with the characters, and to feel their sadness and triumphs. The historical aspect of the story shows the time and research that went into writing the story. I loved this book and will be waiting with anticipation for Ms. Camden's next story.
