Romulus White has tried for years to hire illustrator Stella West for his renowned scientific magazine. She is the missing piece he needs to propel his magazine to the forefront of the industry.
But Stella abruptly quit the art world and moved to Boston with a single purpose: to solve the mysterious death of her beloved sister. Romulus, a man with connections to high society and every important power circle in the city, could be her most valuable ally.
Sparks fly the instant Stella and Romulus join forces, and Romulus soon realizes the strong-willed and charismatic Stella could disrupt his hard-won independence. Can they continue to help each other when their efforts draw the wrong kind of attention from the powers-that-be and put all they’ve worked for at risk?
My thoughts:
FROM THIS MOMENT is an older book by Ms. Camden that I hadn’t had time to read for ages. I finally moved all her books to my short stack because honestly she is a favorite historical romantic suspense author.
Stella is needy, but strong, cocky, confident. Romulus is arrogant, but yet so insecure. These two both had their own mysteries to solve but they need each other to do so. I fell in love with Romulus’s brother-in-law Clive and would’ve loved more of their story. I figured out who-dun-it when the “Bad guy” was introduced as a POV character. Until then one guess was as good as the other though I had suspicions and wondered about some of Romulus’s friends.
I found FROM THIS MOMENT totally engaging and I couldn’t put the book down. I had to keep reading to find out what happened. There is a strong faith moment in Stella’s story, but not so much in Romulus’s.
Fans of historical romantic suspense will want to read FROM THIS MOMENT.
I greatly enjoyed it.
