This is a very nice inspirational historical romance about one woman who joins the Harvey Girls (waitresses at railroad town elegant restaurants).
Katherine Newman is a schoolteacher with dreams of becoming Mr. Henry Jorgenson, but when he jilts her, she takes the train to Williams, Arizona to become a Harvey Girl. The rules are strict and the work is hard, but the pay is good. Almost good enough to erase the heartache. She does works hard, and it isn't long before she becomes a head waitress.
But then Henry's sister Alice also becomes a Harvey Girl, and it's all Katherine can do to be civil to her, let alone fair. She's ashamed, but not enough to make the first move toward friendship. Not even the second or third.
She's not only washed Henry out of her hair, but also the entire Jorgenson family. Nothing can make her change her mind. She's sure of that.
You can buy this lovely historical from Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
I received a free copy of this novel from the author. Opinions and evaluations are my own.
