About this ebook
Amid the hushed city, two hearts must navigate danger and deception, bound by a love that outshines the stars.
Katherine Schneider's life as a dentist in 1913 New York is upended when a patient reveals details of a deadly plot while under the influence of laughing gas. As she is plunged into danger, she seeks help from the dashing Lieutenant Jonathan Birch, a police officer she has long admired from afar.
Jonathan has harbored powerful feelings toward Katherine for years but never acted on them, knowing his dark history is something she could never abide. Now, with her safety on the line, he works alongside her through the nights as they unravel the criminal conspiracy that threatens her . . . even as he keeps his deepest secrets hidden at all costs.
"History, mystery, and romance set against the backdrop of New York City at night--a must-read!"--Gabrielle Meyer, bestselling author of When the Day Comes and In This Moment
"Elizabeth Camden brings the bustling metropolis to living color like no one else. . . . A novel that will keep readers up late into the night."--Jocelyn Green, Christy Award-winning author of The Metropolitan Affair

Elizabeth Camden’s a must read favorite author. I was so excited to read While the City Sleeps, the first book in the Women of Midtown series. I’m happy to say it was absolutely fabulous! I loved the early 1900’s New York setting & delightful characters that pulled me into the story. I know whenever I pick up a novel by this author, I’ll be treated to fascinating historical tidbits along with a swoon worthy romance. Now I can’t wait for the next book in the series! Highly recommend!
