His steel empire has catapulted him to the top of the world, but loving her could cost him everything.

Maggie Molinaro survived a hardscrabble childhood in the downtrodden streets of Manhattan to become a successful businesswoman. After a decade of sacrifice, she now owns a celebrated ice cream company. But when she offends a corrupt banker, she unwittingly sets off a series of calamities that threaten to destroy her life's work.

Liam Blackstone is a charismatic steel magnate committed to overhauling factory conditions for the steelworkers of America. Standing in his way is the same villain determined to ruin Maggie. What begins as a practical alliance to defeat a common enemy soon evolves into a romance between two wounded people determined to beat the odds.

A spiraling circle of treachery grows increasingly dangerous as Liam and Maggie risk their lives and fortunes for the good of the city. It will require all their wit and ingenuity to protect everything--and everyone--they hold dear.

Bravo!!!
5 Star Review!!"Hearts of Steel" is my book dessert with extra ice cream and sprinkles raining down into my book filled spirit!! ! Liam and Maggie definitely pay homage to the title!! When Elizabeth created these two beautiful characters for this book I fully know my heart would be shining in glitter steel!Maggie owns a very popular ice cream business with her uncle and aunt! They are part of a community on Gadsden Street of different food and beverage owners. When a horrible man, decides to jilt Maggie on payment for ice cream from his wedding she runs into Liam who also sees the villian as the enemy at his company at a steel industry!Maggie and Liam decide to work together to help each other out when Mr. Morse decides to attack the both of them and their good name and those that they love! Maggie's soul is as sweet as ice cream and a strong as New York steel! Liam's heart is as big as a ship and as brave as the men that climb up tall buildings everyday to build New York it's identity!♥️♥️♥️♥️The war that these two will have to face will take courage, faith, and it dependency on each other that rivals the moon depending on the stars! Maggie would do anything for Liam and Liam will do anything for Maggie! And the best thing is they trust Jesus completely even within the ups and downs they always hang on to His garment and to each other!I absolutely adore and hold all the side characters close to my heart! All the side characters come together to create a masterpiece with saving each other and promising to be there for one another with anything!Jesus definitely is the hero in this book! He gathered these two together close to His heart and told them both to trust Him. And to give Him their flaws their fears to turn into faith and a forever kind of love! I love the descriptions of the ice cream and the descriptions of all the big projects that Liam helped work on!From handwritten songs, to homemade friendships, and two honest set of beautiful hearts. Maggie and Liam are a timeless couple set forth into a timeless book!!

I love reading books in this era; the trials and successes the characters go through are so down to earth, and love that there is always the Christian aspect included.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent depiction of New York in 1902!
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2023
I haven't read the first 2 stories in this series but didn't feel I was at a handicap when it came to this third and final one. Camden's voice is excellent and made reading the story an effortless and thoroughly enjoyable experience. She drew me into the life of 1902 New York making me feel I was an active participant. I loved learning what life was like and seeing the disparity between the working class and the rich.

Maggie Molinaro is a tremendous feisty character. I found her very easy to like and was soon rooting for her in her battles against the dastardly Charles Morse. Her goodness and willingness to be the sacrificial lamb were admirable.

I took longer to like Liam Blackstone even though there's an immediate empathy for his situation as a former kidnap victim that denied him spending anytime with his father, Theodore, who by all accounts was a wonderful man. Liam's vengeance was both well written and at times a little hard to handle as a reader. Good on Camden for giving us a protagonist that is so visibly flawed for the entire story. We need more of that.

The David vs Goliath story was also well constructed: Maggie being the 'David' as she seeks to initiate changes in certain industries. I enjoyed reading the rampant corruption that one man (Morse) was able to initiate for his own purposes. Fascinatingly, Camden reveals in her Author Note at the end that Morse and his antics were indeed historical fact and not just her clever authorial creation.

Why only a 4? I struggled with the romantic connection between Maggie and Liam. I didn't believe it. It's not to say such a relationship couldn't happen between two people of a different societal standing but their 'romance' all seemed a bit forced. Friendship, yes, I could believe but the chemistry between them didn't jump off the page for me.

There was much mention of God and again it seemed a little forced. Neither Maggie nor Liam appeared to have any relationship with God. Certainly, we learn at the beginning that Liam didn't have any form of relationship and by the end there was an acceptance of God's hand in various circumstances which I wondered were more authorial observations rather than believable heart-felt acknowledgements.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable read as I so looked forward to picking it up each time. I plan to read the first two in the series in due course.

I was very fortunate to receive an early ebook copy from Bethany House via NetGalley with no expectation of a favourable review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, Well-Written, and Worthwhile!

The first two books of the Blackstone Legacy were extraordinary, and Hearts of Steel has proven to be the divine icing on a very tasty cake! Liam Blackstone, a struggling hero, is a man straddling two worlds, and the tension is literally eating him alive. Maggie Molinaro struggles with insecurity and circumstances which threaten to consume her small business and that of her fellow business owners. With never a dull moment, Elizabeth Camden portrays the lifestyles, struggles, and triumphs of early twentieth America. Once more, she has done what she does so well--woven a tale with historical value, and made me feel a part of it all!

My favorite part about Elizabeth Camden's writing is that she writes smart women whose men respect them for it, in a time when that was rare. This book was no exception. Liam shines in his growth and Maggie is good for him and good on her own.

Loved it. Liam has finally met the one for him. I wish someone would take Poppy out or at least give her a decent personality. Other than her being a horrible person, all of the characters are amazing. Great story and great ending. Would recommend to everyone!
