After surviving a mountain lion attack that leaves her physically scarred, Ruth Anniston struggles to adjust to a new role behind the scenes at the El Tovar Hotel overlooking the Grand Canyon. Once a respected head waitress, Ruth now battles insecurity and anger toward God as she tries to rebuild her confidence. When money begins disappearing from the hotel and Ruth falls under suspicion, she joins forces with newly promoted head chef Frank Henderson to uncover the truth before both their livelihoods are destroyed. As the investigation grows more complicated, Frank's longstanding affection for Ruth offers the possibility of a future she thought her injuries had taken away. Perfect for when you're craving a historical romance with a compelling mystery, a resilient heroine, and a heartfelt exploration of faith, healing, and second chances.
