Desert Roses

by Tracie Peterson 3 books in this series

Desert Roses is set around the Grand Canyon’s El Tovar Hotel and the railway tourism network that brought affluent visitors to the South Rim. Harvey Girls, guides and hotel workers form a permanent community behind the landscape marketed to travellers as remote and romantic.

The novels connect dangerous terrain and demanding service work with grief, family estrangement and second chances. Christian faith is expressed through endurance and reconciliation as the heroines learn that a new beginning requires both personal courage and acceptance of help from others.
