"Serving Up Love" by Tracie Peterson, Karen Witemeyer, Regina Jennings, and Jen Turano

 


This novella collection features young women who worked at various Harvey Houses across the country, giving readers the chance to see glimpses of history in several different locations. The job of a Harvey Girl was not one I was especially familiar with, so I learned a lot as I read the different stories.

Each novella brought the tone of its author. I especially enjoyed the two from the authors I'm most familiar with, Karen Witemeyer and Regina Jennings. Karen's story More Than A Pretty Face featured a heroine we'd already met in her Patchwork Family series, while Regina's Intrigue a la Mode sets the stage for her new series to be released in 2020. I am unaware if Tracie's or Jen's stories tie into their other works, but each of the four can also be read as a standalone.

If you like historical fiction or learning about Harvey Girls, you would enjoy this collection. More information about each of the stories can be found here. 

I received my copy of the book from one of the authors. All opinions in this review are my own.
