Desert Bells (Harvey Girls Romance Series, Book 3)

Josephine was expected to marry Matthew, a childhood friend, her entire life. When he was given the opportunity to go to college to become a doctor, Jo decided she also wanted to have her own adventure, so she decided to apply to become a Harvey Girl. She would work as a waitress while Matthew completed his schooling, even though her mother was very against the idea, and threatened to disown her if she left.

Over the next few year, she enjoyed her new job and seeing parts of America she didn’t think she’d ever have an opportunity to visit. But something unexpected happened. Early in her training as a Harvey Girl, she met Dalton Jackson. Over the following months, she slowly became good friends with Dalton and his adoptive family, the Montgomery’s. As she got to know Dalton, she started to realize she was planning on marrying Matthew only because it was expected of her.

Eventually Josephine realized she needed to make a decision. Suddenly, circumstances changed. Should she leave her job for the man she was expected to marry or should she follow her heart?
