A Deep Divide by Kimberly Woodhouse

After being kidnapped as a child, heiress Emma Grace McMurray has seen firsthand the devastation that greed causes in the world, and she wants nothing to do with it. When she discovers her father has offered her up as a bargaining chip to expand his empire, she disappears into the night. Determined to stay hidden, even if it means always looking over her shoulder, she finds herself working as a Harvey Girl at the El Tovar Hotel.

When Ray Watkins arrives at the hotel on business, he is immediately captivated by the beauty of the Grand Canyon. Though his fame-seeking father aims to lure new investors to the Arizona Territory, Ray dreams of one day taking over the family business and doing good with the profits.

Ray immediately admires Emma Grace, and though an attraction begins to form, she can't let go of the deep-rooted fear that he's just like every other wealthy man she's known. When suspicious activity follows Emma Grace and Ray to the El Tovar, they are pulled into a mystery that stirs up their worst fears. And as shocking revelations come to light, they are left to question all they thought to be true.

My review:  I like the premise of the book.  Parts of it was just too slow for me.  I also didn't understand why Emma Grace didn't go by another first name if she was trying to disappear.  Changing your last name doesn't do much good if you still go by your first two names.  I did like reading about the Harvey Girls and what was required of them.  I also enjoy more of a mystery to the books I read.  If you enjoy a light read this is the book for you.

I was given this book by Bethany House Publishers via Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
