From the Publisher

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. 

My Thoughts

Hearts of Steel is the third book in the Blackstone Legacy series by Elizabeth Camden.  It's full of action, romance, history and great characters.  I found it to be engaging and a wonderful way spend a relaxing evening!  

Each book can be read as a standalone novel though I do recommend reading the whole series if you have the chance.   

                                          4.5 Stars!
