Inspired by the remarkable true story of Sacramento pioneer Mary E. Gregory, Elizabeth's Enterprise follows a woman who defied society's expectations to build a fortune while raising six children as a single mother.

Born into privilege in New Orleans, Mary shocks her family by abandoning high society to marry her humble French tutor and begin a new life in Gold Rush-era Sacramento.

As a grocer's wife, her extraordinary business instincts soon emerge, allowing her to overcome the barriers facing women in the 19th century and become one of California's most successful entrepreneurs. Her close friend, railroad magnate and California Governor Leland Stanford, famously declared, "Mary Gregory is a better businessman than I am!"

Discover the inspiring story of a fearless woman who turned courage, determination, and vision into an extraordinary legacy in Elizabeth's Enterprise, Book Four of the Gold Rush Gals series.
