It seems a little odd to promote a new book, when my current release has only been on the shelves a few months….but the Fall 2012 catalog from my publisher has recently gone out, and blurbs for Against the Tide will start popping up like mushrooms elsewhere on the web, so I figured I may as well hop on it! So, without further ado, here is the advance notice for Against the Tide.
* * * * *
Boston of 1891 is a city of hope and ambition, where mariners, merchants, and dreamers thrive in the cobblestone streets of America’s most historic city. Within the harbor of Boston’s naval shipyard, Lydia Pallas has become a trusted assistant to an Admiral in the U.S. Navy. Fluent in seven languages, she spends her days translating documents from all over the world.
Lydia’s remarkable language skills bring her to the attention of Alexander Banebridge, a mysterious man on a quest to rid the world of the scourge of opium. Only Lydia has the rare combination of language skills and courage he needs to advance his cause. A man as coolly analytical as he is relentless, Bane never bargained on falling in love with Lydia. As he battles the bittersweet love that grows between them, Bane’s mission will take Lydia away from everything—and everyone—she ever held dear.
With fast-paced intrigue and unforgettable characters, Against the Tide is Elizabeth Camden’s most romantic novel yet.

I’m sooo looking forward to read this story. I love your writing style!
Ooooh! I cannot wait!
I am SO looking forward to reading the continuation of Bane’s story!
You have the best covers! This looks like another great book!
Gorgeous cover! I really love the greyish tint and also the pop of red from the dress. But, most of all, I can’t wait to read what’s inside! 🙂
Wow! Cool – cannot wait to read this one. Your debut novel was lovely and charming, and I am anxious to read your latest novel.
The cover for this one is, as always, stunning, Elizabeth. =)
This needs to go on my list of reading material right now.
Wow! This cover is breathtaking! I love the contrast between the royal red of her gown and the weather battered ship in the background! If there were other possible covers I’d love to see them like you did with The Lady of Bolton Hill!
