A must read!

I have previously read Book 1 in this series and fell in love with the Montgomery family. A wonderful romance. A story you just want to go on and on. I didn’t want it to end. This series is wonderful and I would highly recommend them. It’s like potato chips. Bet you can’t read just one!

Desert Sky is another great book about the Harvey Girls by Zoe Matthews. I particularly enjoyed Holly's story as she overcame her childhood and growing up years and her determination to better herself by becoming a Harvey Girl. Holly had the desire and determination to help Minnie deal with and overcome many of the same challenges she had growing up and found true love along the way. I particularly liked the timeline of the Fred Harvey Company and the recipe at the end was delightful. Zoe is a fabulous writer and I am looking forward to her next book. I was given an ARC of the book and have voluntarily chosen to write this review.

Desert Sky continues the story of Harvey Girls of El Tovar Hotel and of the Montgomery family. Holly was orphaned at a young age and had a rough childhood. Six year old Minnie is also an orphan. Holly and attorney Andrew Montgomery are both strong leading characters. You will enjoy this story as Holly finds a family. I received a complimentary e-book from the author. This is my honest opinion.

Loved it

What a truly glorious story. From such a hard beginning to such a lovely and satisfying end. Admit to heart palpitations and concerns when the Aunt turns up. Really enjoyed every minute of this story. Was really serendipitous how Holly and Millie connect. A real feel-good story. Recommend it.

wish the Harvey girls were still around

They all came from different backgrounds but their desire to work and still be patient and friendly to all they waited on was a special gift and blessing
