Beyond the mapped stars / Rosalyn Eves.

Seventeen-year-old Mormon girl Elizabeth is torn between becoming an astronomer and familial duties and faith when she navigates a whole new world of possibility, in this sweeping adventure set in Colorado in the late nineteenth century.

Elizabeth Bertelsen dreams of becoming an astronomer, but for her such dreams are as unreachable as the stars she so deeply adores. As a Mormon girl, her duty is to her family and, in a not too far away future, to the man who will choose to marry her. When she unexpectedly finds herself in Colorado, she is tempted by the total eclipse of the sun that is about to happen-- and maybe even meeting up with the female scientists she has long admired. With her familial duties and faith tugging at her heartstrings, a new romance on the horizon, and the study of the night sky calling to her, Elizabeth can't possibly have it all ... can she? -- adapted from jacket.
