- Abstract
- Pertains to the adventures of Elaine Fairley and Mary Holwood as they travel to Banff, AB. The fiction book tells the story of Elaine Fairley and Mary Holwood, two young women searching for a new beginning in Banff. Despite wanting a job, the women were searching for more. Mary, enchanted by the mountains, was hoping to sketch, while Elaine was hoping to share her passion for singing. The book takes an unexpected turn towards romance as two men from back home, George Bedlow and Wayne Chisholm, continue to appear during Elaine and Mary’s adventures. Not long after, the natural romances between the couples bloom. The author, Helen Reynolds, captivates the reader using a combination of romance and humor.
