To the Farthest Shores

To the Farthest Shores by Elizabeth Camden
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love historical novels that teach me something about history. In this story, I learned about the U.S. Government’s MID program and the beginnings of cultured pearl farming. I knew nothing about either of them. Score!

Jenny Bennett is a very qualified and dedicated nurse with a painful past. Ryan Gallagher is a man full of secrets. When he walks out on Jenny years ago, she rebuilds her life but never forgets him. When he walks back in, she can’t trust him. But more than their happiness hangs in the balance. They must work together for a greater good.

What you’d expect from Elizabeth Camden, complex characters with flaws and foibles, intricate settings, solid history, and enough twists to the story to keep one turning the pages.
