In 1906, Rose Bennett leaves Oklahoma Territory with little more than a carpetbag and the promise of a new beginning in a far off land she knows nothing about. When that promise proves false, friendship helps her endure the hardships of Arizona Territory. Honest work offers her a way forward, and an unexpected love gives her hope for the future-until distance, illness, and devastating news threaten everything she has struggled to build.
Set among the real places and history of territorial Arizona, Klondyke Rose is a fictional story of courage, devotion, and one young woman's determination to create a life of her own in a demanding land.
